TFF worked with and in all of the Yugoslav space from September 1991. This conflict - the largest immediately after the 1989 end of the First Cold War - had larger consequences for law, NATO expansion, the UN, Western warfare, "humanitarian" intervention and regime change policies than even the fall of the Berlin Wall itself. We did 70+ peace missions to all parts of former Yugoslavia, 3000+ interviews with all conflict parties and at all levels and courses, seminars, peace plans, press conferences, cooperation with all UN missions in the region, and more. In 2015, TFF published all Galtung, Oberg and Wiberg wrote as they had written it at the time: about 2000 A4 pages in one blog, freely available. It's a work on world and European history and a major publication in peace research and peace politics - with constructive ideas for peace which, had anybody listened, could have saved thousands of lives.
