Rationale For the Initiative
Foundation for Peace, Hope and Conflict Management was borne out of desire to engage a humanitarian front and a nongovernmental approach to finding holistic, unbiased, innovative and long-lasting remedies to violent conflict situations across the nation.
At the Foundation for Peace, Hope, and Conflict Management, we acknowledge that a wholesome solution to conflict situations must first recognize and attend to the primordial factors leading to the conflict itself. Thus, our management approach to conflict situations is improving the means of livelihood and creating an avenue for equal opportunity for people in the society irrespective of gender, tribe or religion and in contributing our quota to the protection and preservation of our local and global ecosystems.
