The European Peacebuilding Liaison Office (EPLO) is the independent civil society platform of European NGOs, networks of NGOs and think tanks which are committed to peacebuilding and the prevention of violent conflict.

Marsabit

Climate change is predicted to increase conflict in the coming decades. In Marsabit, northern Kenya, prolonged drought is already causing resource scarcity and fueling violent conflict among the tribes.

Yet, members of the local communities, young women and men, mothers and elders, are refusing to let the harsh climate conditions determine their fate. Overcoming tremendous challenges with an exceptional strength, optimism and resilience, they foster dialogue between communities, organise peace meetings, and develop alternative livelihoods.

Civil Society Dialogue Network

The Civil Society Dialogue Network (CSDN) is a mechanism for dialogue between civil society and European Union (EU) policy-makers on peace and conflict. Most CSDN events take the form of dialogue meetings which bring together relevant civil society actors and EU policy-makers. They take place in Brussels, EU Member States and conflict-affected countries with EU presence.

EPLO’s video series ‘#HumansBuildPeace’ portrays inspirational leaders who are building peace in their communities. It has been produced in the framework of the Civil Society Dialogue Network (CSDN). More (written) peace stories here.
