| Where we work |

|
Our work and the way we relate to one another in CPBR is underpinned by a heart-head-hand approach, enhanced by a strong belief in participation and local ownership.
Our contribution is to increase awareness and knowledge of the background and root causes of the current conflict. While responding to needs identified by the participants themselves, we create an environment where concerns can be discussed, engendering dialogue. We initially provide guidance in developing responsibility, reflexivity and analytical skills on peace and conflict transformation to the participants, though moving into the distance as capacity increases.
We see ourselves as facilitators and enablers inviting those we work with to participate fully and take ownership through their own leadership. They are not mere recipients of support and help, but active and crucial participants in their own development. The participants become agents of change creating, planning, organizing and implementing peace-building and reconciliation activities. |
