Community Peace Dialogues

Community Peace Dialogues

We create structured spaces where different groups can discuss climate challenges, resolve conflicts, and develop resource-sharing agreements.

Our Approach Community-Led Solutions We believe lasting change comes from within communities themselves. Our work begins by listening to local knowledge and building on existing strengths. Participatory Assessment: Communities identify their specific climate-conflict challenges Local Ownership: Programs designed and implemented by community members Indigenous Knowledge: Traditional practices integrated with innovative approaches

  • Cross-Community Forums: Bringing farmers, pastoralists, and other resource users together
  • Early Warning Systems: Training communities to identify and address tensions before they escalate
  • Traditional Leadership Engagement: Working with elders and religious leaders to strengthen traditional conflict resolution

 

Strategic Partnerships

We bring together diverse stakeholders to maximize impact and sustainability.

  • County Governments: Integrating our approach into development plans
  • National Agencies: Aligning with Kenya’s Climate Change Action Plan
  • Religious Institutions: Engaging faith communities as environmental stewards
  • Educational Partners: Collaborating with schools and universities
  • Private Sector: Creating pathways for sustainable business involvement

Strategic Partnerships

Focus on Vulnerable Groups We ensure women, youth, and persons with disabilities lead in building climate resilience.

  • Gender-Responsive Programming: Addressing the specific impacts on women and girls.
  • Youth Leadership: Creating platforms for young innovators
  • Disability Inclusion: Ensuring accessible participation and adaptive approaches

Inclusive Approaches for Vulnerable Groups

By engaging vulnerable groups into climate restoration efforts will provide a pool of climate change advocates who have historically been sidelined from climate adaptation programs. Inclusion of women enhances women’s participation in climate governance and decision-making processes, inclusion of PWDs ensures inclusive infrastructure in climate resilience projects and the development of accessible emergency preparedness plans for PWDs. Strategies include:

  • Economic empowerment programmes such as eco-tourism, tree planting, and waste management enterprises for communities affected by livelihood losses.
  • Integration of GBV prevention measures into climate adaptation projects.
  • Provide climate education and skill-building to promote sustainable livelihoods and food security.
  • Stakeholder collaborations to promote environmental stewardship based on moral and spiritual principles while utilizing places of worship as platforms for climate education and advocacy
