Peace Begins With A Smile
The Harnessing Opportunities for Peace and Empowerment (HOPE) Project is a 12-month initiative implemented by the Dialogue, Reconciliation and Peace (DREP) Centre with support from CAFOD. The project seeks to strengthen peace, resilience, and livelihood opportunities in conflict-affected communities of Plateau State.
Through community dialogues, skills development, and inclusive engagement, the HOPE Project aims to empower women, youth, and traditional leaders to take active roles in promoting peaceful coexistence and economic stability. By building trust and collaboration across religious and ethnic lines, the project contributes to a more cohesive, self-reliant, and resilient society.
