David Nyheim (born 1970, citizen of Norway) is a peace-making strategist. His work over the last 20 years has focused on dialogue process design and implementation, conflict resolution, conflict early warning, stabilisation, as well as forecasting and strategy. ==Career history== After several years in the humanitarian and public health fields, he was recruited in 1997 to establish the Forum on Early Warning and Early Response (FEWER).() His tenure as Director involved the establishment of early warning systems in the North Caucasus, West Africa, and Great Lakes region. Concerned with the absence of responses to warnings, he worked with FEWER members to combine warning systems with multi-stakeholder dialogue and planning processes in Chechnya, DR Congo, Guinea-Conakry, and Georgia. After leaving FEWER in 2003, Nyheim established International Conflict and Security (INCAS) Consulting Ltd. (United Kingdom) () together with Anton Ivanov, Samuel Gbaydee Doe, and Tom Porteous. He served as its Chief Executive till 2014, after which he became the Chairman of the INCAS Consulting Ltd. group of regional consulting companies.() As a consultant, David Nyheim designed and implemented dialogue processes in Indonesia (Christian-Muslim conflicts), Mauritania (government-opposition dialogue on development), Fiji (pre-election stabilisation), and Kyrgyzstan (micro-conflicts and tensions). He worked on several stabilisation initiatives, largely for governments and companies operating in areas affected by criminalised violence. Lessons learnt and methods for this work were published by David Nyheim and Anton Ivanov in 2014.() Most of Nyheim’s forecasting and strategy work has been for governments and multinational corporations. In 2003, he co-authored the ''Peace and Security Strategy (PASS)'' for Shell Nigeria that accurately predicted serious instability in the Niger Delta. After several years of focused work on the Niger Delta, which included support to later President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, Nyheim returned to the North Caucasus in 2005, where worked with Anton Ivanov and others on a ''Strategic Reconstruction and Development Assessment'' for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (United Kingdom). That same year, he developed an integrated aid-reconciliation multi-donor strategy for Myanmar that controversially argued for active engagement with the Myanmar government. Nyheim is considered a leading thinker and practitioner of modern conflict early warning and response. His study, "Preventing Violence, War, and State Collapse. The Future of Conflict Early Warning and Response"() for the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development is widely cited(). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「David Nyheim」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
