This organisation implements projects in peace-building, education, and health. They teach women how to feed children well and generate income for their families.
Overview
The organisation's objectives are:- To disseminate peace culture and promote peaceful coexistence between tribes;
- To increase women’s awareness about food making and children’s health;
- To help poor families to find other activities that increase their income; and
- To encourage communities to learn by showing the importance of education. (There is a problem of illiteracy in south Kordofan, where the majority of people leave school at a young age.)
