The conflict was characterized by some of the most heinous crimes against humanity recorded in Africa. Although the people of Sierra Leone have always lived amicably together during \u201cnormal\u201d times, the current mounting tension and tribal hate messages being spread through social media are serious causes for concern.<\/p>\n The incident on May 1, 2021, for example, where violent youth attacked and burnt down the Lunsar police station, the residence of the Local Unit Commander and the house of the Paramount Chief, suggests that there is an increasing trend in the transmission of a culture of violence in Marampa Chiefdom. The current situation is worrisome as political campaigns will soon start ahead of the presidential, parliamentary, and local government elections slated for 24 June 2023.<\/p>\n This justifies the need for dialogue activities, which will raise the sensitivity of especially religious and tribal leaders including young people towards other faiths and tribes. In general community engagement and understanding activities are still less developed in Marampa Chiefdom.<\/p>\n Consequently, FIIDI-Sierra Leone is currently implementing a Fostering Community Engagement and Understanding Project in the Port Loko district of Sierra Leone.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/thehaguepeace.org\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Two-Community-Engagement-Project.jpg” title_text=”Two – Community Engagement Project” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.3″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”12px” custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Community Engagement Project by FIIDI<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||1vh||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”2vh||0vh||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”|2vw||2vw|false|true” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”0px||0px||true|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.3″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_3_font=”|600|||||||” header_3_line_height=”1.4em” custom_margin=”0vh||2vh||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.3″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_3_line_height=”1.4em” custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n The Fostering Community Engagement and Understanding Project by FIIDI serves as a platform to promote a culture of peaceful coexistence, overcoming prejudice, religious intolerance, and minimizing the risks of religious radicalization. One of the goals of the project is to build a harmonious relationship among all followers of different cultures and confessions in the chiefdom through promoting confidence and trust. Confidence and trust are essential elements for human security and economic prosperity of the chiefdom.<\/p>\n A dialogue involving a wider audience of cultures, faiths, and beliefs in the Marampa chiefdom is lacking. Therefore, this project is tailored to appropriate target groups with an opportunity to build upon past or on-going initiatives on community dialogue and provide a fresh perspective on the subject in Marampa chiefdom.<\/p>\n The project is building partnerships to support active and effective peacebuilding and development of skills as well as create events and deliver topics that promote a culture of peaceful coexistence, overcoming prejudice, religious intolerance, and minimizing risks of religious radicalization in the communities. Moreover, our Community Circles for Interfaith Dialogue has continued to foster intercultural\/interreligious engagement and understanding in the community, by the community and for the community through Drama, reaching over 500 people.<\/p>\n Ultimately, the Fostering Community Engagement and Understanding Project will continue to promote peacebuilding in Sierra Leone which is Goal 16 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/thehaguepeace.org\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Three-Community-Engagement-Project-trim.jpg” title_text=”Three – Community Engagement Project-trim” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.19.3″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||1vh||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”2vh||0vh||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”|2vw||2vw|false|true” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”0px||0px||true|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.3″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_3_font=”|600|||||||” header_3_line_height=”1.4em” custom_margin=”0vh||2vh||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.3″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_3_line_height=”1.4em” custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n This initiative encourages intergroup interaction.\u00a0It has been shown in numerous scientific studies that increased levels of contact and engagement between different groups of people helps to alleviate prejudices between these groups. \u2018Meta-analytic results clearly indicate that intergroup contact typically reduces intergroup prejudice\u2019 (ref.1).<\/p>\n 1. https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/publication\/281453353_Does_Intergroup_Contact_Reduce_ Prejudice_Recent_Meta-Analytic_Findings \u2013 Quote: p.766<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” _builder_version=”4.19.3″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#f7f7f7″ custom_margin=”3vh||3vh||true|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”2vh||0vh||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”|2vw||2vw|false|true” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”0px||0px||true|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.3″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_3_font=”|600|||||||” header_3_line_height=”1.4em” custom_margin=”0vh||2vh||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.3″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_3_line_height=”1.4em” custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n To build skills and experience as well as increase the sustainability and human resource viability of FIIDI, they offer internships and volunteer placement opportunities for both local and international candidates from various academic and professional backgrounds, to support their work in Sierra Leone.<\/p>\n This is a particularly good opportunity for those seeking a future career in human rights, peacebuilding, or development to gain on-the-ground experience working for a locally based nonprofit or NGO.

FIIDI-Sierra Leone is an affiliate of FIIDI-Burkina Faso and FIIDI- Canada but each organization operates independently.<\/p>\n Arising out of a commitment to end religious and ethnic violence, FIIDI has taken an awareness (education) based approach to address and prevent religious and ethnic challenges affecting the communities we serve. We believe that education, including education for tribal, ethnic, and religious leaders and actors, as well as youth, increase mutual respect; tolerance, and understanding while diminishing the risk that individuals could be manipulated for political purposes. We don\u2019t give aid; we strive for dialogue and tolerance, empowering communities to stand up for peace.<\/p>\n Nelson Mandela (1918 \u2013 2013), a Black nationalist and the first Black president of South Africa once said \u201cNo one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite\u201d. FIIDI\u2019s mandate and promotional activities stem from this quote. Our goal is to give meaning and actuality to Mandela\u2019s words.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” _builder_version=”4.19.3″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#f7f7f7″ custom_margin=”3vh||3vh||true|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”2vh||0vh||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”|2vw||2vw|false|true” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”0px||0px||true|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.3″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_3_font=”|600|||||||” header_3_line_height=”1.4em” custom_margin=”0vh||2vh||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.19.3″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” header_3_line_height=”1.4em” custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Interested in supporting our work?<\/strong> If you would like to support our work, please contact us at fiidi.sierraleone@gmail.com or info@fiidi.org.<\/p>\n Do you want to intern or volunteer with us?<\/strong> To find out how to apply for our internships and volunteer placement opportunities, please click here<\/a><\/span>.
