Phase 1: AI-Supported Peace Negotiation Tools

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

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).
