A new Digital Library covering all things Cyprus Negotiations-related is now available to the public in three languages. The comprehensive Political Guide was developed and published online by the Cyprus Dialogue Forum (CDF) in an effort to contribute to transparency and public awareness on the key milestones and issues in the peace process over the decades.
The guide, which forms part of the Forum’s Shared Knowledge Resources, is designed to provide factual information on the Cyprus negotiations and support dialogue at all levels. It is published on the CDF website in English, Greek and Turkish, and can be accessed directly using this link: https://libguides.cydialogue.org/political.
The easy-to-use digital resource aims to provide a comprehensive source of knowledge on issues related to the formal negotiations, structured around the six main chapters of the peace process. Apart from providing easy access to key documents, the guide also extracts the main provisions from those documents on the big issues negotiated in the multiple rounds of peace talks over the years. The CDF Factsheets & Infographics allow the user to follow the development of the talks in each chapter, as well as compare and contrast the approach to the issues in the different phases.
All information in the guide is sourced from publicly available original documents (i.e previous plans, convergences, agreements, reports, etc).
Background
The CDF is a non-formal dialogue space consisting of political, economic and social stakeholders from both communities in Cyprus. It has been designed by local stakeholders as a safe space for dialogue and as a long-term accompanying mechanism to support the peace process. Within the Forum, stakeholders jointly identify problems and work towards the development of common principles, options and joint visions for the future, that are grounded in a shared understanding of each other. Such understanding is made possible through shared knowledge which is the basis on which the dialogue takes place. Stakeholders work from jointly accepted information and resources that enable them to engage in joint reflections and develop options to emerge from deadlock. Shared knowledge resources allow the stakeholders to hold a fact-based dialogue.
The Forum is supported by a Secretariat function that is responsible for the shared knowledge resources and the present guide. For more information about the resource guides please contact info@cydialogue.org. For more information about the Cyprus Dialogue Forum visit cydialogue.org.
