🕊️ Unis pour la paix 🕊️🇩🇯
Le Groupe de Femmes Solidaires pour la Bienfaisance (GFSB) a participé au Forum national de dialogue sur la paix, la cohésion sociale et la prévention de la radicalisation, organisé à Djibouti par l’IGAD-ICEPCVE en partenariat avec la Stirling Foundation.
Une rencontre importante pour renforcer le dialogue entre les différents acteurs, promouvoir le vivre-ensemble et contribuer à l’identification de solutions durables en faveur de la paix et de la cohésion sociale à Djibouti.
Parce que la paix se construit par le dialogue, l’inclusion et l’engagement de chacun, le GFSB demeure pleinement mobilisé aux côtés des femmes, des jeunes et des communautés pour faire de la paix une responsabilité partagée.

In commemoration of #InternationalDayOfPeace2026, ICEPCVE joined the virtual dialogue on "Youth Leading Prevention & Countering Harmful Narratives in Africa", organised by @UNDPAfrica and @URIAfrica on Tuesday, 22 September 2026. We highlighted the need to invest in youth capacities to counter mis/dis-information and harmful narratives, and to explore how youth-led monitoring, fact-checking and positive narratives can complement existing national and regional early warning and early response mechanisms. Youth are not only audiences to protect; they are partners in prevention, resilience and peacebuilding. #Youth4Peace #Youth4PCVE
The Centre was honoured to participate in the 5th Nairobi Caucus, themed “Protecting Critical Infrastructure Systems and Public Spaces from Terrorism,” co-convened by @NCTC_Kenya and @UN_OCT on 7 & 8 September 2026 in Nairobi, 🇰🇪. The Caucus provided an important platform for sharing experiences, strengthening cooperation, and advancing effective CT/PCVE efforts across Member States.
On the sidelines, the Centre also participated and contributed in the @theGCTF East Africa Capacity-Building Working Group (EA WG) Plenary, themed “Regional Unity for Lasting Security: Strengthening Priorities, Methods, and Capacity for Resilience" which reviewed achievements under the current Work Plan and explored priorities and opportunities for the 2027-2029 period.
