Projects
The IGN, together with its partners, initiates and contributes to a range of projects in the field of global negotiation and conflict resolution. These include projects that are focused on research, education, outreach and practice.
Our Current Projects
Journal for Global Negotiation
The IGN’s Journal for Global Negotiation serves as a platform where junior academics and practitioners can share their negotiation experience, analysis of negotiation processes, and engage in the public discourse around negotiation issues of global concern.

To contribute to a strengthened multilateralism, the Global Negotiation Support (GNS) initiative has been designed to provide expert guidance to Chairs, Facilitators, and negotiating bodies, particularly within the United Nations and other international organisations lacking dedicated negotiation units.
The GNS offers activities tailored to the needs of specific multilateral processes, ranging from the negotiation of legally binding instruments to the negotiated outcomes for global Summits and Conferences.
