PRIO's overall research covers a wide range of research topics. While this research is financed on a project basis, it is also organised into research groups and centres, and people also belong to one of our three research departments or our Cyprus Centre. Each research unit is cross-disciplinary. Together they fulfil PRIO's basic aim of studying the causes and consequences of peace and conflict.
