Peacebuilding is not just a cornerstone, but the very foundation of our organization's commitment to the Right to Development. We firmly believe that sustainable development can only be achieved in an environment of peace, where individuals and communities are liberated from conflict, violence, and oppression. Through our initiatives, we are not just fostering inclusive dialogue, addressing root causes of conflict, promoting reconciliation, and empowering marginalized groups, but we are also actively working towards a world where peace is not just a dream, but a reality. By prioritizing peacebuilding, we are creating the necessary conditions for all individuals to realize their rights to dignity, equality, and prosperity.
