| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The research purposes to understand the nature of intergroup contact that leads to reconciliation among people in post-conflict societies. It examined interpersonal processes of the intergroup contacts during the skills training for three groups of ex-combatants and civilians with disability in Rwanda, who were either victims or perpetrators during the genocide, and tested what kind of interpersonal process reduces fear and increases trust among the groups.
The field-laboratory experiment found that the impact of self-disclosure during the intergroup contact differs depending on the nature of intergroup relations (e.g., socio-economic status asymmetry and victim-perpetrator relationship). I am further analyzing datasets from large-scale questionnaire surveys, behavioral economics experiments, and semi-structed interviews with ex-trainees to synthesis all of the research findings.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は、紛争影響国における開発協力および平和構築の取り組みにおいて、過去に敵対関係にあった集団成員が接触するような介入を行う際の教訓を導き出している。フィールドラボ実験では、従来のラボ実験を、できる限り現地の文脈に合わせて実施することで、学術分野で構築されてきた理論が、途上国の現場で応用可能であるか否かを検証している点で学術的意義も希少価値も高い。また、直接的に測定することの難しい事象を対象としたインパクト評価の手法や解釈の在り方について教訓をもたらし得る。
