We are inquiry.
Social Inquiry is a non-profit research organization advocating for stronger ties that bind us and weaker forces that pull us apart.
What we do
Our main objective is to improve the impact and effectiveness of public policies and interventions that seek to address the root causes of conflict related to governance, civic trust and inequality. Contact us.
Ways we work
We aim to understand issues in conflict-affected societies through grounded and cross-disciplinary research that explores their intersecting political, social, economic, and historical dimensions. Our offices are in Erbil and Barcelona. Read us.
Who we are
We are an international, interdisciplinary, and dynamic team of researchers with combined backgrounds in human development, transitional justice, social cohesion, politics, and security. About us.
Our Programs
Our programs cover a stream of intersecting topics of importance for conflict prevention across different contexts. Within each of these, we conduct innovative qualitative, quantitative, and action research combining the subject-matter expertise of our researchers with in-depth knowledge of context to enhance the impact of peace public policies.
IRAQ PROGRAM
Research within this program is centered on advancing towards the post-conflict stabilization, the gradual political renovation, the deactivation of security challenges, and a better systemic resilience in Iraq.
SUDAN PROGRAM
Research in this newest program is focused on better understanding peacebuilding and displacement resolution needs in Sudan, especially related to land occupation and protection of civilians.
GLOBAL PROGRAM
Research here is aimed at connecting more cohesively the humanitarian-development-peace nexus, making the ‘peace’ part more relevant, and at connecting individuals and enablers for change between our countries of action.
