Peacebuilding Solutions Ltd.
Peacebuilding Solutions operates with a simple, yet revolutionary, humanitarian aid model. Put simply, we let the needs of the community dictate how we deliver aid. This means acting in a way so as to empower in the long-term the communities we serve rather than add to the cycle of dependence by focusing on short-term, contract projects. At PS, we feel that those who do not attempt to make themselves a part of the community they wish to serve will never fully understand the needs of the community, nor gain the trust of those in need.
