Our Services
Shega Communication and Peace Building Charity Association, we provide peacebuilding services tailored to the unique needs of Ethiopian communities. Each program integrates local cultural practices, community participation, and practical solutions to foster lasting peace, trust, and resilience.
Conflict Resolution and Mediation
We offer neutral facilitation for disputes between individuals, groups, and communities. Our mediators combine traditional Ethiopian methods, like elders’ councils and faith-based reconciliation, with modern conflict resolution techniques.
Peace Education and Training
Education is the foundation of long-term peace. We provide workshops, school programs, and community training to equip youth, women, and leaders with skills to prevent and manage conflicts. Topics include communication, leadership, negotiation, empathy, and human rights awareness.
Reconciliation and Trauma Healing
Conflict leaves deep emotional scars. We support victims and survivors through structured reconciliation programs, counseling, and trauma healing initiatives. By creating safe spaces for dialogue and reflection, communities rebuild trust and restore social harmony.
Livelihood Support for Peace
Economic insecurity can drive conflict. We link peacebuilding with livelihood opportunities, including cooperative farming, small business development, and vocational training. These programs encourage collaboration and shared prosperity.
Advocacy and Policy Dialogue
We work with government agencies, local authorities, and policy stakeholders to influence frameworks that support peace, inclusion, and social cohesion. Our advocacy is evidence-based and informed by community experiences.
Our Approach
