CPA’s Outreach Unit officially commenced operations with the Awareness Raising on Local Governance Programme beginning January 2007. However, the same core team members have been working in CPA’s Peace and Conflict Analysis Unit, for almost five years before this.

Outreach Unit’s mandate was formulated as “complementing CPA-initiated interventions by spreading awareness among citizens to facilitate an informed public dialogue on relevant issues towards an overall goal of peace, democracy and good governance”.

The Outreach Unit strives to increase awareness in and understanding of, and ideally belief in, the fundamental convictions held by CPA on peace, democracy and good governance, among the Public and particularly rural stakeholders of our projects with a particular emphasis on youth and women’s’ groups.
