Liberia (CHAL) in collaboration with UNICEF in 1994. The Students Palava Management Program was in response to violence reported in schools following the Liberian civil war. There were series of violence reported in schools as ex-combatants from opposing warren factions and their victims met in the classrooms. These disturbances took up much of teaching time, as teachers were always busy judging cases. These judgments led to suspension and exposal of students. Therefore students were trained to intervene and resolve conflict among their colleagues and facilitate genuine reconciliation. The students that received this training in various schools around the country organized themselves and form NAPAM. In January of 2001, Palava Managers from around the country met in Totota, Bong County- central Liberia at their first national convention and set up the national secretariat to coordinate the association’s activities nation wide. The national secretariat is based in Monrovia. NAPAM is a member of the West Africa Network for Peace building (WANEP) Our focus area are: Peace buliding,Youth and communities development. NAPAM is entirely Manage by youths. |
