Peace huts evolved from Palava huts as peacebuilding hubs in Liberia to deal with women’s problems. Initially focused on counselling former child soldiers after the civil war or women in grief, from 2006 the Peace Hut women embarked on becoming change agents for peace.256 Rural women resorted to this community-based mechanism to raise socio-legal issues that affected them, working with fellow women since 2011. 257 The Peace Huts in many instances are a continuum of women’s struggles to resolve conflict at the personal and communal level, and address SGBV with communities and justice and security sectors.258 Peace Huts offer powerful platforms and spaces for female leadership, peacebuilding initiatives and economic empowerment.259 By meaningfully promoting peace through these initiatives, women increased their relevance in reconciliation. The Peace huts also foster practices like counselling, referrals and conflict resolution. UN Women supports these Peace Huts, which are linking up with formal law enforcement institutions; the Police in some regions linked up with the women of the Peace Huts, providing them with mobile phones and later on a toll-free line as part of a referral pathway to report cases of violence against women. 260 UN Women integrated training for women and sensitization of communities for peacebuilding and offering support for or micro-credits schemes as part of an economic empowerment initiative.261 i) National Programme of Action The APRM National Programme of Action (NPoA) is the outcome document of governments’ commitment to undertake governance objectives that have been 256 UNFPA ‘Liberian women’s organization, Gambian minister, selected as 2019 UN Population Award laureates’ 23 May 2019.
