冲突管理中心的任务是对冲突和暴力的性质进行学术上严格，跨学科，以实际为基础的分析，以支持在整个社会范围内更广泛地传播冲突管理技能，希望这能使人清醒对所有级别的冲突进行分析，并采取更加合作的方式解决困扰我们在家庭，社区和国家之间的关系的冲突。
The mission of the Center For Conflict Management is to provide an academically rigorous, interdisciplinary, and practically grounded analysis of the nature of conflict and violence that will support a wider diffusion of conflict management skills throughout society, in the hope that this will enable a sober analysis of conflicts at all levels and more cooperative approaches to the conflicts that plague our relationships in families, communities, and among nations.
