Why Is It So Difficult to Talk About Conflict? This study is about conflict and how it relates to urban development work, specifically with water components. There is generally very little open reporting on conflicts in projects, whether or not such conflict is linked to the project or if external conflict affects the intervention. But it is nevertheless clear that experience on conflict issues is collected by the actors during the course of projects. It is not very popular to report on “problems”. Even when there are signals of conflict in the project documentation these indications seldom seem to reach the next interface in the project cycle. It is impossible to say whether this is intentional or another sign of the structural incentives that promotes the continuation of projects. These issues are central to the entire development sector; our objective is only to highlight a small aspect in connection with water and urban development.?
