Supporting an Enabling Atmosphere for Children and Youth Network for Peacebuilding Goals (SENANG),
a project funded by the European Union, aims to contribute to conflict prevention, crises response, and
peacebuilding in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) by fostering
inclusivity for children and youth, leading intergenerational dialogues on social cohesion in conflict-affected
areas, and strengthening state and nonstate peace mechanisms. Specifically, the project aims to further
hone the capacities of children, youth, and civil society in their participation in prevention and resolution
of conflicts.
The need for lasting peace and healing in the Bangsamoro region is of paramount importance to ensure
the well-being and harmony of its communities. BARMM has a rich cultural tapestry characterized by its
diverse ethnicities, languages, and religious beliefs. However, it has also been marked by a history of
conflict, which has led to social divisions and the marginalization of certain groups, including children and
youth with diverse gender identities. Recognizing the importance of inclusivity and the active participation
of all members of society in the peacebuilding process, the advocacy and communication workshop for
children and youth seeks to make a dent in the current child rights governance and peacebuilding efforts.
Additionally, the unique challenges faced by children and youth with diverse gender identities are often
overlooked, contributing to further marginalization and exclusion from formal dialogues related to peace
negotiations and social healing programs of the government.
Sangkad Hiraya and Ndayo ta ko Marinaw peace action networks (PAN), together with the Rawaten
Children Advisory Council (RCAC), aspire to lead and streamline the collective cultivation of a culture of
peace among children and youth in BARMM. By capacitating PAN members with skills in peace advocacy
and communication, they are more equipped and prepared to promote safe, neutral spaces for peace and
to meaningfully participate in the efforts to make peace sustainable and inclusive.
