Findings and Learnings from the process:

Key Finding:

• Strong evidence of positive change as a result of trauma healing intervention for Kaabong

reformed warriors

• Change effects among the spouses and the general community appeared less strong.

Learnings: Timing: Right timing – Government security/disarmament, available seed capital, skills building etc Alternative Livelihoods: Trauma Healing on its own is not enough for meaningful change to happen Partnerships and Collaborations: Governments, Other NGOs very key Women and Youth Engagement: Key change agents for peace

Recommendations from the process:

Local community video screenings: Need for wider community screenings of video testimonies - security officers in Kaabong, community members etc. Prioritize community and local actor’s participation: Trauma Healing strategy that is inclusive and sensitive to traditional value systems and culture Further support necessary: To Cement and deepen the peace Adopt PV/MSC as an evaluation methodology for similar peace building actions: PV/MSC gives participatory power and voice to the target community, creating more peace as a result.
