abstract: This paper sets out to understand the role of trust in
conflict transformation and to find out whether and how trust can
be built in the framework of conflict transformation. A
bibliographic research using case study design, this is a
qualitative analysis of the Baku Bae Peace Movement in the Maluku
Island in Indonesia by employing Lederach's Pyramid Model of
Peacebuilding and Allport's Contact Hypothesis as
theoretical/conceptual frameworks. The results based on the
analysis indicate that trust plays a significant role in both the
short- and long-term goals of conflict transformation. In the short
term, trust plays a role in re-bridging the communication and
dialogue between the conflict parties, contributing to the
lessening and ending of violence and paving the way for a
negotiation toward peace and reconciliation. In the long run, trust
fosters mutual understanding, cooperation, tolerance, acceptance
and respect, which are the basis for a collaborative effort toward
constructive social change to achieve a desired future-the ultimate
goal of conflict transformation. The analysis also shows that trust
can be built in the conflict transformation framework by
integrating different approaches deemed to promote trust, such as
the framework of the Institute for Multi-Track Diplomacy, the
conflict resolution skills trainings, the interactive
problem-solving workshops, the establishment of neutral zones, and
the educational and youth programs, into the framework as a
foundation and a component of the conflict intervention. The study,
however, concludes that although trust plays a key role in conflict
transformation, it is only a component. Therefore, a comprehensive
understanding of a conflict prior to any intervention is essential
for identifying and prioritizing key components in
