Barbara Tint received her Ph.D. in International Conflict Resolution from the University of Melbourne in Australia, where her research focused on collective memory and conflict resolution within the context of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. Her work in peace and conflict resolution stems from her background in Political Psychology, where she has focused largely on the psychological dynamics of international conflict. She has served as the Chair of the Feminism and Peace and the Conflict Resolution Working Groups for the Society for the Study of Peace, Conflict and Violence and currently serves on the Committee for the Psychological Study of Peace of the International Union of Psychological Science. In addition to her teaching, she works as a consultant, facilitator, mediator and trainer in a variety of domestic and international arenas. She has worked in Australia, Israel/Palestine, India and Costa Rica participating in various peace and conflict resolution related activities in those regions. Her current research and writing focus on her ongoing work around collective memory, dialogue in inter-group conflict, peace education and culture, and the processes involved in the development of pro-peace attitudes. She is currently the Director of International and Intercultural Conflict Resolution for the Conflict Resolution Graduate Program at Portland State University.
