Murmushi People’s Development Foundation implemented a farmer-herder peace initiative to address recurrent farmer–herder conflicts in five communities of Adamawa State. The farmer/herder conflict resolution, under the EU-ACT program, aimed to promote peaceful coexistence through stakeholder engagement, participatory dialogue, and mediation training. MPDF trained 18 project staff and 5 partner CSOs in peace mediation and dialogue facilitation, conducted advocacy visits, and mapped key stakeholders to strengthen collaboration. Through sensitization and focused group discussions involving 30 farmers and 30 herders, the project built trust and prepared communities for joint peace dialogues. This intervention enhanced local capacity for conflict management, fostered community ownership, and contributed to long-term stability and cooperation between farmers and herders.
