This is a component that cuts across all KCSSP work. Not only does the program provide partners with opportunities for funding, but  also  mentor and build their capacities for an improved programing as well as be able to meet the program’s objectives. This is done  through customized, personalized site visits, workshops and training, constant monitoring and evaluation of the projects and provision of technical assistance and guidance on a need to need basis.

KCSSP is working with a number of local NGOs at grass root level to mitigate, prevent and manage community conflict while linking this to the on-going reforms of better governance through targeted advocacy. So far 65 grants have been issued to partners from various parts of the country. The peace-building component of the program works closely with the communities building their capacities for building peace since it is our belief that communities are best placed in bringing about long lasting peaceful solutions in prevention and managing conflict.
