Practice Makes Perfect

A Recap of the Conflict Transformation Training-of-Trainers May 21-25, 2012

When was the last time that you let someone lead you around a room with your eyes closed?  It may have been a while, but if you’re a peace practitioner, you’ve likely participated in a similar exercise meant to encourage trust-building and show the importance of good communication and leadership.
 
This is one of the exercises that the 24 participants gathered for the Conflict Transformation Training of Trainers (ToT) enjoyed most.
 

Local Project Committees

Community ownership is a key feature of Tomorrow is a New Day’s project design.

Thus, from the very beginning, structures are being created to ensure the sustainability of the project. In each of the seven communities, a Local Project Committee, or LPC, will be established.
 

Seven Target Communities

Each community has been targeted because they are “trend setting communities” that exert strong influence on conflict dynamics in neighbouring areas.
 

Tomorrow is a New Day Baseline Study

A baseline study was conducted in all seven communities.

The goal of the baseline was to collect data that would provide insight into the conflict dynamics of each community.
The baseline was conducted using an integrated -methods approach including 1523 baseline surveys, 23 focus group discussions (FGDs), and 19 key information interviews (KIIs).

Amnesty, in this context, refers to the sweeping disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration activities in the Niger Delta.
