Sustaining Peace for Development

There is no doubt that peace is the gateway to a successful and prosperous future. Sustainable peace ensures not only development but inclusive and harmonious society. Experience has shown that communal, sectarian and religious crises do not only kill but destroys communities. It displaces people and turn house owners into Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and refugees dwelling in camps. The insurgency in the northeast and other parts of Nigeria has increased poverty level as well as fear, aggression, insecurity and tension.

In addressing this problem, we advanced a range of activities that drives community development and gear towards alleviating poverty. More emphasis is placed on rebuilding lives of the vulnerable women and girls living in IDP/refugee camps and also in the rural poor communities with the ultimate goal of helping them to help themselves out of abject poverty through empowerment program and scholarship for education. We also concentrate on fostering the well-being of every child by fighting vigorously to end all forms of violence and  abuse against children. We further prioritize climate change initiatives that rejuvenates the environment. By working together with our partners, we are more committed to building a better and safer world for all.
