Support to peace processes
Rebuilding cooperation and trust
In countries emerging from conflict, fear, division, and mistrust often persist long after the fighting has ended. Lasting peace depends on rebuilding the social and economic fabric, restoring confidence, and creating spaces for practical cooperation between former adversaries. By fostering these dynamics, FSD helps lay the foundations for lasting stability and peace.
From joint demining to the reintegration of former combatants
FSD takes part in specific peace processes in coordination with national authorities, partner organisations, and local communities. Depending on the context, its projects may facilitate dialogue and cooperation through joint demining operations, support the reintegration of former combatants into civilian life, or assist in the rehabilitation of essential infrastructure. Each initiative is tailored to the particular needs of the post-conflict setting and contributes to lasting stability and social cohesion.
