Disengagement, Disassociation, Reintegration, and Reconciliation (DDRR) programme is a key component of peace building and stabilization portfolio that aims to contribute to peace and improved security in Somalia by building the capacity of conflict-affected communities and youth to address the social, economic, and political drivers that fuel violent extremism. 

BWDO brings together diverse stakeholders such as government, community members, and disengaged persons through a variety of outreach, social, and cultural social cohesion activities. Through art-based approaches grounded in Somalia’s rich oral culture, promotes community dialogue, information exchange, and traditional dispute-resolution mechanisms to promote community resilience, acceptance, and reconciliation. BWDO supports the government to respond to the needs of women who disengage from non-state armed groups, BWDO provides holistic support to disengaged persons throughout the transitional rehabilitation process.
