employed to facilitate peaceful co-existence. In highlighting the results of the study, the policies and programs
that stimulate the population (girls and adult women) to be educated in informal urban areas are important.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Peace education and conflict resolution training should be embedded within women’s income-generation and
empowerment projects to strengthen their role in community peace efforts. Women entrepreneurs should be
given targeted financial support through microcredit schemes, grants, and mentorship to increase their
economic independence and capacity to influence peace initiatives. Create and support forums where
financially independent women can share experiences, mediate local disputes, and influence policymaking
around social cohesion.
