CDFPD also created a wide relationship network with local & International organizations and institutions including:

In collaboration with Saferworld and Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA). CDFPD conducted training for 500 community leaders, women, youth, on peaceful co-existence and exchange visits of conflicts villages in 20 locations. And reconciliation conference between Misriya tribe and Nuba tribe to solve the problem of a tribal dispute that has been stuck for 7 years and make the citizens able to advocate their cause to the state level until they succeeded in persuading the state security committee to open the Abu Janouq administration and Achieving peace and strengthening local capacities for rapid response to resolve conflicts, enhance social cohesion, solidarity and collective responses (this appeared in Lagawa town for some conflicting ethnicities who  were displaced due to conflicts. The local people of these three tribes cooperated successfully in supporting each other)

CDFPD, with the support of Safer world and UNITAMS, was able to implement 10 joint programs and 5 exchange visits between the areas controlled by the SPLM and the areas controlled by the government in  to achieving peaceful coexistence among tribes in overlapping areas and  supported training of 250 community leaders, youth and women in west Kordofan on conflict resolution and peace building   The project also contributed to peaceful co-existence and  created 15 reconciliation committees in 60 villages and 10 early warning committees and achieving social peace between the social components and integrating the displaced with the host community (allocating to them land for settlement in Al-Sunot locality)

CDFPD, in cooperation with the Safer World Organization, was able to support young people and build their capabilities to create new community leaders from the young generation by creating joint programs that enable communication with the old generation of community leaders so that young people gain practical experience, as well as young people who present new innovative ideas to the old community leaders and Encouraging women’s participation. The traditions, customs, and culture of the local communities in West Kordofan do not promote women participation in any community activities. Although to date this continues to be the case, through my engagements with the customary leaders who are predominantly men, I was able to create an awareness about the need for women to participate in peacebuilding work. As such, there is a gradual though slow acceptance of women to participate in some community activities.
