How we enhance Peace, Security, And Resilience

Dysfunctional institutions and oversight bodies, disregard for the rule of law, has led to poor
service delivery, violations, and abuse of human rights compelling ordinary citizens to opt for
alternative and illegitimate avenues for addressing conflicts and grievances. Extremists and
perpetrators have continued to exploit the existing structural weaknesses to create divisive
and radical narratives that have bred fertile ground for violence. Young people have
particularly fallen prey to the bait of extremism, hate and polarization.
HURIA aims to inform and empower the citizense to defend their rights, and demand
transparency and accountability and advocate for inclusion of youth in social-economic
development.
