PAST EVENT: MBBT Delegation Visits Mutfwang to Strengthen Middle Belt Peace Efforts

IFITโs Middle Belt Brain Trust (MBBT) held a strategic retreatย in Jos, Plateau State in July and also used the opportunity to outreach to the Plateau State Governor. The MBBT informed the State Governor of the groupโs collaborative strategy and how its work aims to build on the Middle Beltโs strengths; establish institutionalised mechanisms to manage conflict, strengthen relationships, and build cohesion; bolster existing traditional, social, and state institutions; and increase economic opportunity, especially for youth.
Going forward, the MBBT will remain engaged with the State Governor and will deepen its collaboration with the Plateau State Peacebuilding Agency to pilot and mainstream conflict sensitivity in policymaking and implementation, as well as working to increase youth participation in peacebuilding. Likewise, the State Governor will outreach on behalf of the MBBT to the other State Governors of the region.
