IFIT helps fragile and conflict-affected states achieve more inclusive negotiations and sustainable transitions out of war or authoritarianism. Our series of one-minute videos (in English, Arabic, French and Spanish) outline the innovative approaches we bring to support locally-led efforts to break cycles of conflict or repression.

How we work

IFIT operates a unique business model that involves the interaction of two kinds of specialised expert networks: 1) purpose-built thematic “practice groups”, and 2) purpose-built country “brain trusts”.
