Karamoja Cluster

Strengthening Peace, Resilience, And Disaster reduction for cross-border communities in the Karamoja Cluster (SPREAD)

The SPREAD project straddles the borders between Ethiopia, Kenya and South Sudan where more than a dozen different pastoralist and agro-pastoralist groups live.

A competition for resources has always been part of the dynamics between these groups, but climate change has taken a toll on the already scarce resources resulting in a shortage of food, a lack of opportunities for young people, and an upsurge in the number of violent conflicts.

The Main Project Aims Are:

01

Support the planning processes of DRR and peacebuilding committees through tailored training and the development of gender-responsive, community-based DRR plans that address conflict,drought, and flooding.

Enhance Peacebuilding Linkages Between Cross-Border Stakeholders

We strive to build sustainable peace by bridging gaps between various stakeholders, including the communities and authorities at local, national, and regional levels. Our initiatives focus on strengthening and building effective linkages between these critical actors to ensure that peacebuilding efforts are cohesive, inclusive, and effective. BORESHA-NABAD’s initiatives empower communities and local leaders to create sustainable solutions for lasting peace and security through an all-inclusive space that facilitates dialogue and collaboration.

We aim to

Facilitate cross-border DRR, EWS and conflict response coordination and communication between the different stakeholders to build long-term conflict mitigation and resilience.
Increase women and youth involvement in peacebuilding efforts.
Support effective advocacy towards national and regional level institutions by borderland community representatives.

Improve Access to Income-Generation Opportunities for Women and Youth

We employ a market systems approach to create sustainable economic pathways to expand access to income- generating opportunities for women and youth in marginalised borderland communities, empower them and strengthen their financial resilience.
