The National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC)/Interpeace Kenya Peacebuilding Programme has been facilitating community peace dialogues across the North Rift region counties of Baringo, Samburu, Turkana, Elgeyo Marakwet, and West Pokot since 2019. This has resulted in several peace agreements between communities with long-standing grievances – bringing about periods of relative peace and stability in parts of the North Rift that saw the reopening of schools and roads, as well as increased interactions between groups. The current surge in commerzialised livestock raids, killings, and violent crime in the North Rift region has undermined these peace gains and risks further derailing peace processes between communities.
Le représentant national du Kenya du programme de consolidation de la paix d'Interpeace offre des informations et des recommandations inestimables pour aider toutes les parties prenantes travaillant avec le gouvernement à résoudre le conflit dans le Rift Nord.
