The Sisters of St. Joseph of Tarbes promote peace work in conflict-affected regions of Kenya, which are often characterized by resource-related tensions, migration and political rivalries. The aim of the cooperation is to strengthen the peace and conflict skills of the sisters and to develop sustainable approaches to conflict transformation. In doing so, you can familiarize yourself with the local communities and their dynamic challenges in peace work. The Sisters of St. Joseph of Tarbes run a permaculture farm that can be integrated into your work. You will have the opportunity to put permaculture principles into practice not only in the agricultural sector but also in peace work and to incorporate these concepts into your didactic work.
