The Peace Building Resource Centre (PBRC) was founded in Liberia in 1998 as a result of a major piece of research conducted on peacebuilding in complex political emergencies. PBRC works to create an environment suitable for peace through research, training, advocacy and community development.

As part of its mission, the organisation strives for good governance in Liberia, characterised by the principles of accountability, transparency and justice.

Through its projects, PBRC hopes to facilitate national and local dialogue for the attainment of consolidated peace and sustainable development.

Projects include:

• Participatory Action Research (PAR) to record potential conflict issues in the north west Liberia in partnership with UNOPS/Interpeace with funding from the Peacebuilding Fund.
• A conflict Assessment and Analysis process with funding from United Nations Development Program (UNDP).
• The Inter-Ethnic Reconciliation project in partnership with the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA) with funding support from the Liberia Peacebuilding fund.
• PBRC is actively implementing community awareness activities around the Gbarnga Regional Justice and Security Hub, which is a major project funded under the Liberia Peacebuilding Program and intended to strengthen the Liberia Justice and security sector in anticipation of the eventual draw down of the UN Missions in Liberia.
• PBRC implemented the Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (SEA) project in three districts (Voinjama, Foya and Kolahun), which focused on the prevention of SEA - a potential source of conflict at the community level - through the training of 600 girls and 400 boys and 100 teachers with funding support from UNICEF.
