Pillar 2

The problem and our response

Status: Planned

Conflict, terrorism, displacement and inter-clan tensions weaken trust and increase exclusion. Children and young people returning from armed-group involvement may face trauma, stigma and barriers to safe reintegration.

We support inclusive community dialogue, peaceful dispute resolution and safe reintegration pathways in partnership with child-protection, psychosocial, education and rehabilitation services.

Example activities

  • Peace dialogues and local peace committees
  • Reconciliation discussions and family dialogue
  • Stigma-reduction sessions and referral support

Expected outputs

Dialogue sessions held, community platforms supported, participation agreements reached and referral pathways strengthened.

Intended outcomes

Greater trust and cohesion, disputes handled peacefully, and safer reintegration for conflict-affected children and youth.

Measurement indicators

  • Dialogue sessions and participants (by age and gender)
  • Disputes resolved peacefully
  • Referrals completed
