Vanessa G. Brake is a graduate research assistant at CRDC. She is pursuing her M.S. at the Institute for Conflict Analysis & Resolution (ICAR), and plans to graduate in May of 2007. She has earned two bachelor degrees from Arizona State University in psychology and religious studies. Her many research interests revolve around issues of religion and conflict such as: the Moro Wars of the Southern Philippines, gendered conceptions of evil, the secular/religious divide, relations among Abrahamic communities, and several others. At ICAR, Vanessa is active in the Middle East Working Group and the Gender & Conflict Working Group. The capstone to her Master degree will involve the creation of a curriculum, and subsequent website in conjunction with the Inter-faith Conference of Metropolitan Washington D.C., based on Martin Luther King Jr.’s “Six Principles of Nonviolence.”
