The project also has a research component to investigate issues that come to light through the ongoing monitoring and a training component for state authorities and civil society organizations on how to develop a shared vocabulary for discourse on the protection of human rights in conflict environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Short bio:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Saeed Parto<\/strong> holds a PhD in Human Geography from the University of Waterloo (Ontario) and specializes in policy and institutional analysis with a focus on human development.
