Mission:
MIGS' work is cutting edge. Peace and conflict resolution are its primary goals. The Institute seeks not only to uncover the underlying reasons for genocide and other crimes against humanity, but also to put forth concrete policy recommendations to resolve conflicts before they intensify and spiral into mass atrocity crimes.

Announcements:
22 July 2010: Hearty thanks to NADAV AIGEN, the MIGS Administrator, who will be leaving MIGS at the end of July. Nadav has been my assistant for 3 years and redefined the job throughout his work with me. It will be hard to find a person to fill his boots.
Nadav’s greatest contribution was to get the media monitoring group up and running, recruiting interns, teaching them the ropes, editing their reports, posting them to the MIGS web site, and instilling among the country desk officers a remarkable spirit of team work that made a huge difference. Nadav also helped us to reinvent the MIGS website, making it livelier, more compact, and more user friendly.
All of us involved with MIGS and its output have benefited from Nadav’s dedication, insight and skills. Thank you, Nadav, and best wishes for more success in the future./Frank Chalk, Director, MIGS
