About Us

The Harmony Institute of Peace (HIP) was established to serve as a vanguard of peace and sustainable development in the fragile context of Somalia. With its foundation deeply rooted in the principles of peacebuilding and reconciliation, the Institute engages with various stakeholders including government bodies, civil society organizations, and international partners to foster a culture of peace and dialogue.

Leveraging a blend of traditional and contemporary conflict resolution mechanisms, HIP strives to bridge the gap between various societal factions, thereby nurturing a conducive environment for democratic
governance and communal harmony.

By employing a holistic approach, the Harmony Institute of Peace delves into critical issue areas such as civilian-military relations, justice, and electoral violence, which are paramount in steering Somalia toward stability and prosperity.

Additionally, the Institute conducts rigorous research and analysis to inform policy decisions and to equip leaders and communities with the necessary knowledge and skills to mitigate conflict.
