SOCRO, plays a pivotal role in enhancing Somalia’s peace-building program through diverse initiatives. Peace-building seeks to address the underlying causes of conflict, helping people to resolve their differences peacefully and lay the foundations to prevent future violence. We are helping people living with conflict to reduce and prevent violence in their communities. And we are guiding countries that have suffered decades of war, on to the path to peace. Peace-building comes in many forms. Explore what our work looks like in practice
Strategic Interventions in the Peace-Building Programs
- Building sustainable peace doesn’t happen overnight, which is why we’re in it for the long-term. We think about our work in terms of years, not months, and this means we can develop relationships of trust. Where there is trust, it is easier for all sides to take cautious steps towards peace.
- We build connections between those who wouldn’t normally meet, breaking down barriers between divided groups.
- We encourage marginalised people to speak out about the conflicts which affect them, and work to ensure they have the space to do that. And we develop skills, share knowledge and promote lessons to improve how individuals, organisations and governments around the world respond to conflict.
