Working Towards Communities
Recovery and Resilience

Nayece Sustainability AB focuses on the development-humanitarian-peacebuilding nexus. We conduct cutting-edge social research and capacity building for the academy; and training for civil and religious leaders to address gender inequality, peacebuilding and provide psychosocial support in local communities for recovery and resilience in fragile and conflict affected contexts.

Knowledge for Development and Sustainability

Nayece Sustainability AB works in partnership with different universities, national and international organizations.

We are committed to:

  • Promoting innovative approaches to interventions in humanitarian crises, peacebuilding and reconciliation in fragile and conflict-affected societies.
  • Enhancing practical skills-based knowledge and training for inclusive education, development and governance for equitable social change.
  • Our practical skills training programmes also extend to community participation, inter-faith relations and peacebuilding.

Research

Nayece Sustainability AB promotes evidence-based policy-relevant research, which can be roughly divided into three distinct yet often overlapping agendas: (a) religion in peace and conflict, mass violence and transitional justice (b) Post-conflict social political reconstruction, development and the sustainability discourse (c) international migration and transnationality. Culture and gender are treated as cross-cutting issues in our research and program development.

On-going research

Our research seeks to understand the different actors (state and non-state) in the various conflicts, the nexus of political and social processes (changing social/cultural institutions and the emerging ‘voids’) which are at work in the making and unmaking identities and ethnicities; and the impact these can have on peace, sustainable development and stability of the communities concerned. We probe the link between poverty and conflict generated international migration and human trafficking. We explore the ways in which individuals and communities are affected by mobility, forced migration and displacement of communities and large populations. On-going research focuses on (a) resilience and recovery: psychosocial support and peacebuilding in fragile and conflict affected societies (b) the northward migration and human trafficking route from Africa to Europe (c) the forced displacement of millions of people in the Horn and the Great Lakes regions of Africa (d) Covid-19: Decisions, disruptions, ‘measures that causes behaviour change’.
