Presentation transcript:

Welcome!

The Need Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development: 740, ,000 people, including thousands of women and children, die as a result of indirect effects of conflict. Those facing situations of violent conflict are best equipped to deal with conflict transformation, but support is often needed.

Background Founded1991 RTC works to transform violence and build peace. RTC is innovative. Saving lives. RTC works in partnership. Syria, Nepal, Libya. Biannual training course.

“One thing is certain, by training one person you have invested in a hundred other peacemakers and agents of change. While others are investing billions in warlords, let us invest the little money we have got in peace lords”. - Course Participant

Group Activity

The Catholic Diocese of Maralal Case study Samburu district of Northern Kenya is an area where there was deep rooted animosity between the tribes of the Samburu and Pokot. At its peak, on average every month 71 people were killed during armed cattle raids. The Catholic Diocese of Maralal has been working to ease tensions in the region. E.G. initiating a road construction activity to enable people to get their goods to market more easily and encourage the tribes to trade with each other.

The Catholic Diocese of Maralal Case study RTC and the Catholic Diocese of Maralal, analysed the situation. The road itself made people feel more vulnerable to stock theft or attack. With the support of RTC work has now been able to successfully restart. The communities now not only trade with each other, but have also built positive relations.
