The Social Cohesion and Reconciliation (SCORE) Index is an innovative tool designed to measure the state of peace in multi-ethnic societies around the world. In order to achieve this goal, SCORE examines two main components of peace – reconciliation and social cohesion – and the intricate relationship between them in order to develop policy recommendations.
SCORE Index is developed through a partnership between UNDP-Action for Cooperation and Trust (UNDP-ACT) in Cyprus and the Centre for Sustainable Peace and Democratic Development (SeeD), with USAID funding. The tool supports policy decisions for national and international stakeholders and is particularly suited for post-conflict multi-ethnic societies that now face peace-building and state-building challenges.
SCORE Index also explores the impact of Social Cohesion and Reconciliation on Readiness for Political Compromise. These insights can be used to efficiently allocate peacebuilding resources in the support of the ongoing peace processes. So far, the SCORE has being implemented three times in Cyprus (2013, 2014 and 2015). SCORE has been also launched in Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2013, in Nepal in 2014 and currently in Ukraine.
