From rival estates to one football team
A peace club tournament brought together young people from two estates that had not played each other in years.
Youth & school peace clubs
Helping young people lead peace in their schools and estates, through sport, theatre and mentoring.
Young people are too often recruited into violence, especially around elections. Our peace clubs give them a different role: mediators, organisers and storytellers. Clubs meet weekly in schools and community centres, run by trained teacher-patrons and youth mentors.
What we do
- Weekly peace club sessions in schools
- Inter-school peace sports tournaments
- Drama and spoken-word festivals on peace themes
- Mentoring for club leaders
Where we work
- Kakamega
