CAP CHAD
CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE SUPPORT PROJECT
Print Version
(PDF)
Spillover from the violence in the Darfur region of Sudan, pressures
from large refugee populations, poor economic performance, high
rates of unemployment, and political instability contribute to an
increasing amount of conflict in Chad. Communities located far from
the country’s capital have little access to resources and support
from the government and in their isolation must devise strategies
for maintaining peace and meeting community needs.
To support rural communities in mitigating potential destabilizing
factors at the local level, CAP Chad strengthens the capacity of
community leaders and civil society organizations (CSOs), supports
increased collaboration between local governments and CSOs, and
provides access to resources for community development initiatives.
CAP Chad infuses participatory approaches throughout each phase
of the project, inviting the participation of community members,
leaders, and CSOs in program design, implementation, and evaluation
of project activities.
