Neuropaz 2026: Understanding Behavior During an Active Conflict (5/10)

In February 2026, Behavioral Scientist teamed up with the peace science organization Neuropaz to host “Hard Truths and Paths Forward: Peace as a Scientific Challenge,” an online event exploring the latest work and thinking at the intersection of behavioral science and peace and conflict. In this session, Mareike Schomerus leads Helena Puig Larrauri, Britt Titus, and Greg Power in discussing: What is the value in understanding human behavior during an active conflict? And how do you do it? They explore these questions through work happening at three key levels: the individual, the community, and the institutional. We hear about individual interventions happening in Syria, research on the spread of hate in online digital communities, and why a behavioral perspective is key to building democratic institutions that last.
