ACA is a Kenyan non-profit organization founded in 2001.We work to build communities of peace through education and training, documentation, exchanges and solidarity building. Our niche is threefold: i)our ability to enhance sustainability and ownership of projects through community organizing and empowerment, ii)integration of the crosscutting issues of gender, non violence and human rights and iii)linking grassroots' activism with global policy, discourse and legal frameworks.
Through our training programs, we have built capacities of hundreds of leaders from local communities, educational, religious and professional organizations to build sustainable peace with justice and human rights. Using our network base we have linked local, national and international initiatives and discourse thereby contributing to the global agenda for peace and development.......[ Download Brochure ]
