The development of the curriculum content of the peacebuilding training for the four (4) target women-led CSOs in Jubaland was informed by the findings and recommendations of the peacebuilding training needs assessment conducted by LINSOL through desk review and participatory FGDs with the targeted WLCSOs. Based on the peacebuilding training needs assessment, five (5) training modules was developed by Link for Solutions Consulting to address the main identified training needs and existing gaps for the target WLCSOs in the target districts of Jubaland.
The five (5) developed and delivered training modules were:
• Module 1: Conflict Analysis and Context Understanding
• Module 2: Mediation, Conflict Resolution and Peacebuilding
• Module 3: Advocacy and Policy Influence
• Module 4: Conflict Sensitivity
• Module 5: Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and Trauma Healing

Conflict Analysis and Conflict Resolution Road-Map

In addition to the above, ss a post-training activity, after the training workshops LINSOL provided the trained members of the Women-led CSOs with technical support to develop conflict analysis and capture the conflict dynamics in their respective districts and, based on the conflict analysis, develop conflict resolution roadmap for each respective location utilizing the knowledge imparted, skills and tools acquired from modular peacebuilding and conflict management training program. These post-training activities were very useful both in order to put into practice, as well as, evaluate the skills participants acquired through the training.
