In 1999, with funding from the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, the Conflict Resolution Information Source (CRInfo) project was launched with the goal of providing a free, online clearinghouse of high-quality information related to conflict resolution. Created by a team of more than 400 distinguished scholars and practitioners from around the world, the Beyond Intractability / CRInfo Knowledge Base is built around an online “encyclopedia” with easy-to-understand essays on almost 400 topics. These essays explain the many dynamics which determine the course of conflict along with available options for promoting more constructive approaches.

The “executive summary” level material represented by the essays is backed up by dozens of core knowledge overviews that offer brief introductions to key topics and concepts, and by over 17,000 citations to recommended sources of more in-depth information from books, journal articles, news organizations, and other websites.

The site is a project of the University of Colorado Conflict Information Consortium.
