The èì~åíáí~íáîÉ=~ëéÉÅí concerns the intensity of the conflict, which can be ascertained by monitoring a series of conflict criteria( Annex 22). This analysis permits conclusions to be drawn about the influences the conflict has on the project. The èì~äáí~íáîÉ=~ëéÉÅí concerns the documentation and analysis of key events and trends. These are related to activities and the unfolding of the project in order to ascertain whether and to what extent a link can be established. The grid should be agreed with all those involved in the process.

Depending on the type, medium and availability, the emphasis will be on the analysis of the written material(reports, surveys, expert opinions, etc.) or structured interviews with selected knowledge carriers. Step 3: Updating the conflict analysis and processing the results The processing of the extracted data and information is determined by the structure of the conflict analysis and is expected to produce two results: 1. an ìéÇ~íáåÖ=çÑ=íÜÉ=ÅçåÑäáÅí=éêçÑáäÉ(i.e. conflict lines, dynamics and actors) as well as a review and, if necessary, an updating of the recommendations for action it gave rise to; 2. an Éî~äì~íáçå=çÑ=íÜÉ=êÉäÉî~åÅÉ=çÑ=íÜÉ=éêçàÉÅí=íç=íÜÉ=ÅçåÑäáÅí. links the conflict monitoring results and impact assessment(including a possible adaptation of the project strategy). The results of the conflict monitoring with respect to the analysis of the conflict profile and possible changes(cf. Step 1 box) can be processed by an independent expert or institution. However, the comparison of the course taken by the conflict with the progress of the project(cf. Step 2a box) should be discussed at a team workshop. Selected partners can be brought in for this purpose together with national and international organisations, national experts and other knowledge carriers working in
