Abstract:
The Peace Committees program in Kenya was rolled out in all districts in 2009 following the 2007/2008 post election violence to aid in peacebuilding and conflict management. However, the program did not made major breakthroughs in peace sustenance which therefore called for its evaluation. This paper is based on a study that was carried out to: determine the effectiveness of peace committees in peace building and conflict management in Trans Mara Sub-County, investigate involvement of women and youth in peace building initiatives in Trans Mara Sub-County, and to determine local measures in place to prevent recurrence of ethnic conflict in Trans Mara Sub-County that disrupt education and development
