Thanks to amazing support from donors like you. We have been able to build capacity of 60 internally displaced women through our Support internally displaced women project, which ha as goal to support peace building initiative for 60 women who are victims of war and also internally displaced as a result of the Anglophone crisis to become peace agents, to help them heal and recover from the pains as well as provide hope to them.
We have organised a workshop where we provided capacity building and training support to enhance the technical skills of these 60 internally displaced women to better influence and participate in peace processes as negotiators and mediators, as well as gain skills to support victims of sexual violence in conflict affected situations.
We also educated them on the importance of self care and trauma healing. This is to ensure that women affected by the crisis gained knowledge on some health strategies in coping with trauma so as to recover from the pains and are prevented from becoming violent. Also, these women were informed on the various service centres working on issues of violence especially violence against women, to raise awareness on where to report such cases.
