We’re excited to announce the launch of an interactive research map, developed as part of the KonKoop project and now live on the IOS website. This digital tool offers an intuitive, visually engaging overview of organizations involved in peace and conflict research throughout Eastern and Southeastern Europe—from Czechia and former Yugoslavia to Central Asia. It highlights the rich diversity of actors in the field and brings them together on a single platform. The map features detailed profiles of each organization, with filters for type, activity, thematic focus, and regional scope. Built with the Leaflet JavaScript library and powered by OpenStreetMap, it allows users to explore the landscape of peace and conflict research through zoomable maps and intuitive filters.

Whether you’re a scholar, practitioner, or policymaker, this tool is designed to support discovery, foster collaboration, and spotlight the regional expertise emerging from this vital area of study.
