Peace building Initiatives
Peace Building and Conflict Resolution
utilizing Traditional Dance Groups

This program, originally started in August 2006, is still ongoing.
Peace building and conflict resolution is one of the key areas of
concern in northern Uganda.  Communities who are confined in
the Internally Displaced Peoples' Camps benefit from training in
peace building practices and learning and implementing
non-violent means in the resolution of conflict.

Subsequently, PFAI created a training program and
administered this to 7 group leaders of Traditional Dance
Groups.   Group Leaders then took their acquired knowledge
and in turn went to teach their groups.  Each group then began
to compose songs, organize dramas as well as use their
traditional dances to advocate peace and the use of traditional
non-violent means of resolving conflict.

While there are ongoing challenges to any project, this
continues to be a successful endeavour, encouraging the use of
local tradition coupled with peace building and conflict
resolution techniques.

PFAI is available to any local school or organization to
