This synthesis paper consolidates findings of two case studies undertaken along the Swahili Coast of Kenya and Tanzania.
It explores the intersection between youth, culture and peacebuilding and seeks to identify existing and potential spaces for young women and men to exercise positive leadership and influence in addressing conflict, security, and peacebuilding issues.
The research is part of the Kujenga Amani Pamoja programme, a three-year project implemented by WeWorld with support from Peaceful Change initiative (PCi), TABUFO (Tanzania Building Future Organization), 4H, Stretchers Youth Organization (SYO) and CNV (Conselho Nacional de Voluntariado) and co-funded by the European Union.
