International Conference on Peace and Conflict Resolution ICPCR held annually at the University of Tehran, is a forum to exchange and present the innovative ideas on peace studies and conflict resolution. ICPCR aims at paving the way for scholars, students and independent researchers to share their knowledge, findings and experiences and welcomes contributions from various disciplines and scholarly traditions, including but not limited to Religion Studies, Politics, International Relations, Sociology, Psychology, Art, Media Studies, Human Rights and Environmental Studies. Thus, innovative papers that apply new theoretical frameworks with a functional and problem-solving approach are more likely to be accepted and presented in the conference.
