Projects

Phase 1 initiative to validate and document an open source framework for AI-supported peace negotiation tools, prioritizing local-first, secure deployments and transparency. Builds on coordination.network methodology and open source tools. Objectives: - Develop a validated open source repository for peace negotiation support - Enable local-first deployment to ensure data sovereignty and security - Create a framework supporting both open and closed source AI models - Capture expert knowledge through structured practitioner engagement Methodology: - Expert-driven development with iterative feedback cycles - Integrate off-the-shelf open source tools into a specialized framework - Comprehensive documentation to support future implementation and scaling Budget (EUR): - Remote Expert Sessions & Iteration Cycles: €5,500 - In-Person Testing Workshop (one week on-site): €8,000 - Documentation & Knowledge Transfer: €1,500 - Total: €15,000 Timeline: - January–July 2025 (6 months), aligned with expert availability and iterative cycles Deliverables: - Open source code repository for AI-supported peace negotiation tools - Blueprint for creating specialized negotiation support tooling - Comprehensive documentation of methodologies and best practices - Framework for testing with multiple AI model architectures Licensing & Open Access: - Software: Dual MIT/Apache 2.0 - Documentation: CC BY 4.0 Notes: - Future phases may include hardware optimization for local model execution and training of custom models (not in Phase 1 scope/budget).
