About CCAPAD
The Centre for Community Actions for Peace & Development is a non-governmental, non-profit organization headquartered in Jos, Plateau State. Conceived in 2004 at the height of ethno-religious violence, we formally launched in 2010 to address the root causes of conflict and build sustainable peace.
