On this International Day of Peace, the theme "Cultivating a Culture of Peace" is more important than ever. At RefuSHE, we’re committed to fostering harmony between #refugees and #hostcommunities, especially in informal settlements where we serve those displaced . Forced displacement often sparks conflict over limited resources and services, but through our partnership with @GIZKenya, we’re in the process of initiating dialogues to help communities resolve disputes peacefully and find mutually beneficial solutions. 🤝💬 Together, we can build a future rooted in peace. #InternationalDayOfPeace #WithRefuSHE #CultivatingPeace

Peacemaking is not just an act, but a governance practice grounded in the wisdom of the ancestors. Just as rules guide the sharing of resources, they guide peace. Through daily practice and reflection, we strengthen our governance systems and community bonds.

Indigenous peacebuilding practices are built on centuries of experience and knowledge. Yet, despite calls to embrace Indigenous people in peace processes, progress has been lacking. In a new analysis, our Binalakshmi Nepram explores the vital role of Indigenous peacebuilding and how a recent U.N. resolution can open the door for more Indigenous voices to be included in conflict resolution mechanisms: https://lnkd.in/eH-5N2mT

The United Nations Declaration and Programme of Action on a Culture of Peace reminds us that peace is more than just the absence of conflict. It is "a positive, dynamic participatory process where dialogue is encouraged and conflicts are solved in a spirit of mutual understanding and cooperation.” A key value in fostering a culture of peace is promoting non-violence through education, dialogue, and collaboration. Peace must be built where wars begin—within our minds. We must work together and choose dialogue over confrontation. Our world is ours to shape. Why not choose to make it better? #CultureOfPeace #PeaceBuilding #NonViolence #DialogueForPeace #SustainablePeace #UNPeaceInitiatives #GlobalCooperation
