Research group Intergroup Relations and Social Change
The Intergroup Relations and Social Change research group is dedicated to understanding and improving intergroup relations to foster social change.
Our research aims to understand the psychological processes and mechanisms of improving intergroup relations in societies affected or threatened by conflict. Using experimental methods across different social contexts, we study attitudes and emotions in order to develop effective intergroup interventions that promote positive social change.
