Make Peace in the Horn of Africa Possible Today!

We are citizens from all six countries of the Horn of Africa. Our aim is to make peace a reality in the Horn of Africa

Therefore: 

• Recognizing the urgent need to bring peace and stability to the Horn of Africa;
• Being aware of the shared rich values, cultures, and histories of the region’s citizens and its diasporas;
• Guided by the vision of citizens of the Horn, their hopes and aspirations for peace, dignity, and mutual respect;
• By recognizing their mutual interest in justice, good governance, sustainable development and respect of human rights;
• Determined to utilise the region’s human and material resources to realise equitable socio-economic development and integration
• Convinced the citizens of the Horn and its diasporas can surmount any challenges that lie ahead;

... We resolve to work for the following:

Inclusive regional citizenship which would allow accessible movement and trade within the region;

 A region that utilizes its common resources equitably for the prosperity of its current and future citizens;

A region that brings an end to wars and violent conflicts in all their manifestations;

 A region which tolerates the diversity of its peoples and accepts their right to live in peace and harmony. 

We therefore call upon:

All citizens of the Horn and its diasporas to join us in endorsing this covenant;

Our religious and community leaders to join the campaign;

Every man, woman, elder and child to promote its spirit;

National, regional and international institutions to support this peace movement and demonstrate the consensus for peace in the Horn of Africa.
