PEACEBUILDING AND ADVOCACY

Peacebuilding and Advocacy -  is a program designed to promote education and peace for conflict-ridden areas. Through this program, S4E is able to create projects which can benefit these communities. Our goals are to improve access to education, work with existing schools, provide school supply kits and build sustainable schools which will continue to function for future generations. By creating this program, we have been able to give children living in conflict in countries like South Sudan, the tools to help them develop their new nation in order to lead into a new era of peace and growth. The Peacebuilding and Advocacy is mainly about "conflict-sensitivity' and "peace building" built into different types of education. That means not just building schools but providing the RIGHT KIND OF EDUCATION within them.

The people - children, youth and adults, the whole community - need to be strengthened and empowered through education to know what to do to avoid conflicts, avoiding them escalating when they do start, how to endure the conflicts with strength and wisdom and how to calm them down. Therefore the PA program encompasses a whole spectrum of education programs that make sure to include:

  • QULAITY EDUCATION

  • GIRLS EDUCATION

  • CREATIVE ARTS AND SPORTS

  • EQUITY AND INCLUSION 

  • EARLY CHILDHOOD DEVELOPMENT

  • LIFE SKILLS

  • TEACHER TRAINING

  • CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT

  • LIVELIHOOD TRAINING/MICRO BUSINESS

STAND UP GIRL

STAND UP GIRL - is a program that works to remove the obstacles preventing girls from leading healthy, empowered lives and attending school. We work closely with girls by providing them with adequate education, basic health practice, sanitary products, mentoring, and life skills training. Additionally, we respond to the needs of women and girls living in poverty by providing opportunities to be self sufficient, providing a voice and shedding light upon their struggles. Together, these efforts will increase attendance in school and empower women and girls, that all citizens in a community are able to contribute to and benefit from the opportunities of an improved life.
