Overview of position | Since 2011, Libya has witnessed violent conflict and political instability. The people living in Libya suffer the collapse of public services, especially education and health, higher prices through cuts to food and fuel subsidies, conflict-related loss of shelter and livelihoods and major setbacks in ensuring the safety of citizens and the rule of law. Furthermore, approximately 1 million people, including internally displaced persons (IDPs), returnees, vulnerable non-displaced Libyans, migrants, refugees and asylum seekers, are in urgent need of humanitarian assistance, access to services and jobs. Many IDPs and returnees also face tensions with resident communities given the conflict history and this represents an additional burden for already-stretched local conflict management platforms. In such context, local-level actors, including municipalities, find themselves at the frontline trying to respond to urgent needs of the local population.
In partnership with national and local government institutions in Libya, Our Client has designed a new Country Programme Document (CPD) for 2023–2025, which proposes as one of its three major objectives to invest in local peacebuilding and resilience, marking a transition from immediate stabilization towards longer-term development and peacebuilding. In this regard, Our Client is supporting peace and resilience in targeted clusters across Libya by strengthening the capacity of local institutions and communities to manage conflict tensions, complementing its focus on enhancing accountable, effective, and gender sensitive governance, and promoting sustainable green growth and greater resilience to climate change.
Under the Local Peacebuilding and Resilience in the South of Libya Programme, Our Client is focusing geographically on South Libya to address the challenges facing this region. Specially, the programme seeks to restore trust between citizens and institutions, as well as among citizens, by supporting local institutions to deliver critical services and promote local economic recovery in selected municipalities in the South of Libya, especially women and youth. The programme will enhance opportunities for local authorities, civil society actors, and private sector to contribute meaningfully to local peacebuilding and development processes. |
