Lets Make THE Difference
Help Us End The Violence Through Conflict Resolution
Support a Proven Solution to Bring Peace to Refugee Camps
For years, violence in refugee camps has torn communities apart, especially for those fleeing from the horrors of war in South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). These conflicts have left deep scars on the youth, who have known nothing but brutality and fear. But we know how to change that.
A program developed by Congolese refugee-turned-leader Honore Ebengo has already proven to reduce violence in refugee camps by over 60%. This initiative offers not just safety, but the knowledge and tools for refugees to become agents of peace in their communities.
Now, we need your help to bring this life-changing initiative back to Kalobeyei and Kakuma Refugee settlements.
This program doesn’t just teach conflict resolution—it helps individuals heal and envision a future free from the violence they’ve known.
Stand Against Violence – Make THE Difference Now
Are you tired of feeling helpless when you see news about violence? Do you want to make a real, tangible difference?
At Let's Make The Difference, we empower local leaders like Honore Ebengo to create lasting change. His conflict resolution training has already shown measurable success, leading to a 60% drop in violence during its previous operation.
Why We Need Your Support Now
Thousands of refugees have already benefited from these trainings, learning the essential skills needed to foster peace and rebuild their lives. However, due to a lack of funding, these vital trainings were discontinued.
With your support, we can reopen the Conflict Resolution Centre for an entire year, reaching thousands more refugees and training over 700 local leaders to continue this critical work.
Together, we can offer hope and a new beginning to those who need it most.

Puok Mayian Gatwech was a refugee in Kakuma camp before returning to South Sudan in 2022.
In 2020, he completed a six-month Leadership, Peace, and Conflict Resolution course offered by Advocacy Initiative for Youth Development.
After his program, Puok became a Peace and Conflict Resolution trainer and played a crucial role in restoring peace during conflicts between the Nuer and Nubian communities in Kakuma.
Now back in South Sudan, a country where child soldiers are prevalent, Puok runs peace awareness programs in his village, applying the skills he gained to help his community.
Hundreds of refugees like Puok are using the skills they learned through this initiative to create positive change in their communities.

Creating LeadersTo Empower Change
We stand for a level playing field; where all people have access to empowering, transformational and entrepreneurial education to create possibilities for their future.
Effective Leadership Through Conflict Resolution
My name is Kun Deng Thut, and I’m the chairman of Block 7 in Zone 2, Kakuma 4. The conflict resolution training changed how I lead.
The skills I gained have given me the confidence to handle conflicts and keep peace in my community.
I didn’t expect the training to help me personally too. It taught me how to deal with my own inner struggles, making me a better and more caring leader.
I’m proud that, thanks to the training, I’ve peacefully resolved over 10 civil cases in my community. Each one showed me the power of understanding and empathy.
Empowering Safety and Communication in Kakuma
I am Chanceline Nabinyiwa, from the Congo. Life here is tough, especially for women, with conflict and danger always around. Attending the training was a powerful experience for me.
The skills I learned—how to communicate, stand up for myself, and stay safe—have made a big difference. In more than one situation, this training helped me protect myself and others from harm.
This training didn’t just teach me how to talk to others; it gave me the tools to feel safe and in control in a place where that’s hard to find. I am deeply grateful and feel more empowered to face life’s challenges in Kakuma.
A Personal Experience in Peace-building
I am Den Danning Riek, living in Kakuma 1. Recently, I took part in a peace campaign training, where I learned valuable conflict resolution skills in just three days.
During a football match between the Romo and Kwariyomo teams, tensions rose, and a fight almost broke out. I stepped in, talked to the coach and both teams, and managed to calm things down so the game could continue without any problems.
This experience showed me how important and effective the techniques I learned can be. It strengthened my belief in the power of community to bring understanding and harmony, helping to avoid conflicts altogether.
Thank you for supporting our mission to promote
peace and conflict resolution in refugee communities.
