The Berghof Foundation is engaged in the gradual, challenging work of transforming conflicts into sustainable peace.
Working around the world
Over the past five years, we've worked in over 50 countries to promote peace, research trends and solutions, and enable conflict parties to move toward sustainable peace.
In Al-Absiyya, a small village in Yemen’s mountainous central highlands, the brand-new local health centre lay slowly falling apart for the last four years.
'Biographical salons' provide a unique space where old wounds can be aired, different perspectives are shared, and people take steps toward reconciliation.
Working with partners and refugees themselves, we organised trainings and activities that promote peace education, theatre and self-care for Syrian refugees in Jordan.
We supported the creation of a network of insider peacebuilders who have the skills and experience to encourage dialogue and reconciliation in Somali communities.
