The AgendaGL has been facilitating community dialogues and peace-building workshops in the area since 2022, and the organisation’s Dr Steven Shisanya said their aim is to empower and lead the process of dialogue.
“We aim to contribute towards uplifting communities’ livelihoods by nurturing the leader in each person. We believe that individuals with independent and transformed minds are leaders capable of bringing about positive change for themselves and those around them. This is possible with quality and relevant support in a safe and enabling environment,” he said.
The NPO receives its funding from the United States of America, and Dr Shisanya said it is going to run until 2024.
