The goal of this programme is to prevent conflicts and inter-community tensions through two main approaches: - Strengthening social cohesion through the promotion of national unity and citizenship, developing policies allowing an equal distribution of resources and establishing mechanisms for conflict resolution and dialogue; and - Strengthening the rule of law by building the capacities of actors in the area of conflict prevention and management.

The programme aims to support the establishment of conflict resolution structures, fostering dialogue and social mediation as well as combining traditional practices with the use of formal judicial mechanisms and decision-making bodies. This approach shall help increasing the population’s trust in public institutions, by promoting at the same time national diversity and strengthening social cohesion and solidarity.
