Throughout our history, we have worked hard to provide long-term capacity building for the effective, sustainable, and non-violent management of social and community conflict in contexts as diverse as high schools Massachusetts (USA) with UNAGB to Morocco’s High Atlas Mountains with the Open Hands Initiative and the High Atlas Foundation; from the urban neighborhoods of strife-torn Burundi with the BLTP to policy debates and think tanks in Armenia.

The Bridgeway Group has partnered with the World Health Organization’s Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Division to develop guidance and tools to build the capacity of national antimicrobial resistance (AMR) committee members in countries around the world in consensus building, negotiation, conflict management, and coordination skills. The long-term capacity building program contributes to WHO’s efforts to enhance collaboration within and across multiple sectors at the national level, with the goal of helping WHO tackle AMR across the globe. To date, the program has produced an extensive literature review on approaches to addressing AMR; a pilot training program in effective leadership and multisectoral collaboration skills, tested in three countries; revised guidance and tools to build the capacity of national stakeholders; and has now rolled out training in several regional offices and in multiple member states.

The Bridgeway Group works with the Council on State Governments-West through targeted capacity-building programs in negotiation, communication and conflict management skills, as CSG-W supports elected and appointed state officials as they take on their important role in public service.

The Bridgeway Group supports the Rebuild Congress Initiative (RCI) as it brings cross-partisan stakeholders together in service of strengthening America’s democratic institutions. The Bridgeway Group offers facilitation and capacity building services to the RCI team and its network of leaders.
