Background
The Darfur Community Peace and Stability Fund (DCPSF), was launched in 2007 with two clear aims: firstly, to help facilitate peace building by “restoring the capacity and authority of traditional community-based conflict resolution mechanisms”; and secondly, to enhance the delivery of economic and basic social services through a number of community-based activities. In 2019, CARE has been conducting research across the five States of Darfur to better understand women’s access to participation and leadership in decision-making in peace building and conflict resolution mechanisms. The Gender and Peace building Initiative (GaPI) research was funded by the Darfur Community Peace and Stability Fund (DCPSF), United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and carried out by CARE International Sudan with the support of national NGOs (NNGOs), the Darfur Development and Reconstruction Agency (DDRA) and Global Aid Hand (GAH). CARE’s research resulted in a report ‘Sawtaha (Her Voice)’ published in November 2019, and the results of which have informed the scope and design of this new project with implementation period of 18 months starting from March 2020.
