KILOMBO CENTRE FOR CITIZENS’ RIGHTS AND CONFLICT RESOLUTION Concept Kilombo (kilomboeducation.org) is an education and research project, which aims at facilitating the process of building institutions to provide capacity for grass root and pro-people forces to develop an alternative to the unfair social and economic arrangement globally and secure a just relationship between Africa and Africans with the rest of the world. Our concept is, therefore, to approach our work as part of the global justice movement and not see Africa and Africans as an isolated group which can miraculously or mysteriously achieve justice without linking and working with other people. Within Africa, as well, we relate with all the activities that take place today and see how we can influence them towards this goal and not operate or approach what we do in abstract. What do we do as Kilombo? We are developing the Kilombo Centre for Citizens’ Right and Conflict resolution (formerly Kilombo Centre for Civil Society and African Self-Determination) since 2003, as a coordinating centre for our activities globally with a centre office, community library and a training centre in Peki, Ghana. This approach is also to be innovative in having a centre of that type in Africa which not capital city centred and relates to the society at the grass roots. The centre is run by a Director who is Explo Nani-Kofi with the help of a volunteers/supporters and aiming at securing an Administrator when resources are available. As part of the work of the centre, the Director writes for various websites (counterfire.org, pambazuka.org), Ghanaian newspapers (The Insight, The Crystal Clear Lens), appears as guest political analyst on Press TV, Islam Channel and Al Jazeera, coordinates the weekly radio programme – Another World Is Possible – on GFM Radio (gfmradio). We also publish the Kilombo Pan-African Community Journal as a quarterly. The quarterly was produced by the Kilombo Community Education Project since 1997 and the Kilombo Community Education Project is now dissolved into the Kilombo Centre for Citizens’ Rights and Conflict Resolution.
