In Do No Harm Conflict – refer to negative, destructive and often violent group or intergroup interaction. It doesn't refer to the variety of inter-group disagreement and other form of constructive struggle by which social change occurs. Aid – refer to the various forms of humanitarian or development assistance provided by local, national and international NGOs, including governmental organizations. DNH -- is not a peace building tool and does not expect development organizations to add a peace building mandate. DNH -- intends to help development organizations improve doing what they are mandated to do.
