Reach Out Cameroon

Objet publié

This project aims to improve gender and age inclusivity throughout peace processes in Cameroon. Reach Out Cameroon aims to strengthen grassroots women’s participation and leadership in peacebuilding efforts and provide frameworks for peaceful dialogue, violence prevention, trauma healing, and coordinated peace advocacy and mediation efforts. Project activities include: (1) facilitating the training of women and youth through workshops on peacebuilding techniques; (2) creating local Community Peace Hubs and regional Peace Tables that serve as peacebuilding coordination bodies; (3) supporting Mobile Peace Clinics to target hard-to-reach communities of women and men to promote awareness, education and mediation on community tensions, peacebuilding, positive masculinity, non-violent resolutions of conflict, and basic sexual and reproductive health education; (4) establishing a Peace House to train civil society organizations; and (5) conducting a multi-regional forum for Women, Peace and Security leaders to exchange best practices and lessons learned from peacebuilding work across six conflict-affected regions in Cameroon.
