The project on “Teacher Training and Development for Peace-Building in the Horn of Africa and Surrounding Countries” was designed by UNESCO-IICBA and financed by the Government of Japan. The project benefitted six conflict-affected countries; Ethiopia, Eritrea, Somalia, Kenya, Uganda, and South Sudan by building on the mandate and niche expertise of UNESCO-IICBA in teacher education, as well as benefiting from the empathetic insights and financing of the Government of Japan.

This evaluation report analyses the design, implementation, and consolidation of the project to assess the likelihood that it can facilitate peace education as an effective and integral part of the national education systems. The project’s short timeframe and modest financing mean that the evaluation could not credibly deal with its outcomes and impact; but efforts are made to gauge the uptake and sustainability of this project as a vehicle for promoting peace education and so help to prevent violent conflict and cultivate a culture of peace in the countries concerned.
