Mission:

Due to its diverse geo-physical conditions, Purbanchal University qualifies for many research activities in Peace and Conflict Studies that could be of tremendous benefits to region (Including Neighboring countries). The Purbanchal University is presently conducting intensive search to conduct a number of collaborative research activities in close association with national, regional and international organizations. The current fields of interest are peace building and conflict transformation, but there are also open to additional areas of interest. The institute will be developed and expanded in two phases.
Phase-1: It will refer and concentrate its activities with respect to the present condition and demands especially focusing peace research and the training programs
Phase-2: It will refer the past experiences through research activities and the projects responsible to develop and expand its long term mission.

The Need of Peace Research Institute:



The present scenario of Nepal may be compared, observed and predicted as the cases of many other Civil wars, happened in many other countries. It can also be critically, somehow compared as the case study of the civil wars in Guatemala.
We believe that the present situation of Nepal is in great need of impartial and autonom
ous peace research Institution following the International recognition. The Institute could assist and serve civil society at large in the South Asia region. The government, policy makers and the academicians, are in need of such Institution supporting the ideas of conflict resolution. The Institute could produce early warning system of the conflicts and could also able to suggest the Governments on the issues and the strategies of peace building process in the conflict zones. In addition to various other objectives, Peace research can subordinate the issues for finding facts of root cause of conflicts, truth finding facts on latent conflicts. The Institute is required to carry the mission of peace building research in grass root level. The establishment of Peace research Institute will able to spread its activities on various types of conflicts, coexisting in similar forms also in neighboring countries of Nepal, especially in India, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Myanmar. The nature of the conflicts and the various forms of Incompatibilities describes homogeneous background transmitting its subjectivist and objectivist forms of conflicts in one and another country. We also believe that Peace Research Institute will have a very important role in this north east region of South Asia due to the typical geopolitical environments. This particular region (Some north east part of India, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Myanmar) has impacted due to context, actors, issues and the interest of the parties originating various types of conflicts.

Present scenario and Ongoing Peace Process in Nepal:

Present scenario and Ongoing Peace Process in Nepal:
We have observed that Present condition of Nepal has many types of incompatibilities among various actors. The ongoing peace process reflects several issues and interests among the actors who are involved in peace talk. The post civil war and existing incompatibilities will also be responsible for creating few other actors with their various issues and interest. There are several incompatibilities and conflicts among King, political parties, government, army, Maoist, international agencies and other hidden actors for various issues and interest. There are other latent conflicts on regional levels, like structural conflicts on Madheshi issues (ethnic group in Terai), issues on Bhutanese refugees. The lack of clear policies on Madheshi Issues from Government of Nepal may create a similar situation like Srilanka, in future. The country is passing through a very crucial phase and seemed to be declared as failed state, if the country does not receive the proper solution, soon.
The ongoing peace process in Nepal can be resolved on the basis of proper dealing on DDR (Demobilization, Disarmament and the Reintegration). The dialogue between Top Maoist leaders and the Seven Parties allies are going on; they have to attend many rounds of dialogues and meetings and have to join itching exercises to resolve the problem at grass root. They have to also pass through an acid test on the issues of Monarchy. But the presence of UN Envoys on arm management created little hope. We believe that the current peace process of Nepal is on the swords edge particularly due to various actors and interests. We also believe that the ongoing Double D (DD) process is not accurately exercised with a sound framework. The actors and the facilitators involved within ongoing DDR process have least addressed the grass root conflicts, which were unlikely the basic reasons of Maoist Movements.

PURBANCHAL UNIVERSITY
Introduction:
The establishment of Purbanchal University in 1993 was visualized as an extraordinary endeavour by the Government of Nepal to create an academic centre of excellence in the Eastern Development Region of Nepal. Its prime role was outlined to act as a catalytic agent for the promotion of socio-economic transformation in Nepal through quality education appropriate for quality life and sustainable future. Since its establishment, the university is motivated by its fundamental objective of preserving, refining, inventing, adopting, extending and transmitting knowledge in an environment that fosters free enquiry and open scholarly debate, leading to all-encompassing development of the rural people and their economies and environment.


The establishment of Purbanchal University as the public institution has come as a great relief to both urban and rural poor mass wishing to attain higher education within the country. With its affordable fee-structure and expansive premise of over 545 Hectares in rural settings of eastern region of Nepal, this fully autonomous public University is geared to play a substantial role in academic development and quality education in Nepal.
The last twelve Years has been the acid test period for the University and today it is an accomplished institution in academic arena of Nepal. In spite of its ever-growing popularity within the people and academic society of the country, the University has always strived for achieving higher academic statures in every coming day, month and year
