ABOUT US

At CEEDECO, we are dedicated to fostering peace and transforming communities through the power of Ubuntu philosophy. Founded in 1997 by Eric L. wa Mwenge, our mission emerged from a deep commitment to healing and rebuilding communities in the aftermath of conflict.

 

With a vision for a harmonious society, we work to empower individuals and build networks that promote social cohesion, human values, and sustainable peace. Through innovative programs like MOV-HUMANA, community dialogues, and the Ubuntu Residential Peace Academy, we are creating lasting impact locally, regionally, and globally.
