The Intercultural Conflict Master's programme represents a transdisciplinary and practice-oriented Master's course of study that combines a multidimensional theoretical and methodological approach to social conflict with a strong focus on participatory practical social action. Thus, the programme prepares students to manage real-world social conflicts in transnational and intercultural contexts, enabling them to work in various fields, including NGOs, governments, and international organisations. The programme was established in 2002 with a strong emphasis on transnationality, interculturality, and transdisciplinarity. Since then, more than 300 students from over 50 countries have successfully completed it. The transnational, intercultural, and transdisciplinary nature of the programme is reflected in the diversity of its students, lecturers, and managers in terms of nationalities, languages, cultural backgrounds, scientific traditions, and work experiences. All these differences coalesce in Berlin, which serves as a space for social analysis, collaborative learning, and discursive construction. Furthermore, the cultural, professional, political, social, and linguistic diversity of participants is one of the main characteristics of the MA ICM. The methodological and didactic design is oriented around that diversity and differences, giving students the opportunity to experience and handle diversity in lectures, working groups, and everyday life. The ICM integrates this diversity, effectively functioning as a living laboratory for students and teachers.
