Mrs. Florene Bisina, Vice Chairman, Warri North LGA; David Udofia, Peacebuilding Manager, PIND Foundation; Doris Ademola, Chairman, Warri Kingdom Coastal HCDT; and Mr. Robinson Esite, Legal Adviser, Egbema OPUDIS HCDT, during PIND Foundation's four-day Capacity Strengthening and Localisation of Resilience Strategies Workshop for HCDT Peacebuilding Committees in Warri, Delta State.
The Foundation for Partnership Initiatives in the Niger Delta (PIND) has intensified efforts to strengthen peacebuilding, grievance management, and community resilience systems across Host Community Development Trusts (HCDTs) in Delta State through a series of targeted capacity-building workshops.
The intervention brought together Peacebuilding Committee members of the Egbema-OPUDIS, Agbonu Ogulagha Ibe, and Warri Kingdom Coastal HCDTs for intensive non adversarial training focused on conflict management approaches, dialogue facilitation, conflict early warning and response, and localisation of resilience strategies within host communities.
Held in Warri, the workshops convened the HCDT Peacebuilding Committee members, traditional leaders, security agencies, local government representatives, and other stakeholders to strengthen local peace infrastructure and promote coordinated approaches to conflict prevention across riverine communities.
