Brick by Brick: Building social cohesion
Through the Brick-by-Brick project, Interpeace has supported youth, women, and vulnerable groups in implementing environmentally friendly and climate-sensitive income-generating activities (AGRs). This initiative aims to prevent conflicts and strengthen social cohesion in the border region between Mali and Burkina Faso.
For many years, this area has experienced tensions related to the exploitation of natural resources. In addition to creating economic opportunities, AGRs foster collaboration, cohesion, and peace.
This report summarizes the key findings from a pilot project in Tensta, a suburb of Stockholm. A district-wide consultation process identified the main challenges and sources of tensions that stand in the way of social cohesion in Tensta. It captures the energy, enthusiasm, stories and current challenges as seen by the residents of Tensta today.
