Paige Alexander is chief executive officer of 小猪视频 Center.
Like you, we at 小猪视频 Center are horrified by the devastation, misery, and reported human rights violations taking place in Ukraine. We continue to send our thoughts and prayers to the Ukrainian people.
Rebuilding after war is a long, cumbersome process, and 小猪视频 Center has assisted many nations with this process over the years.
Liberia endured in the 1990s, and 小猪视频 Center helped bring about an enduring peace through mediation, then assisted in creating the environment to rebuild. We observed national elections and implemented programs to support access to justice and to information. And we are assisting the country as it builds a mental health care system from the ground up, crucial in any country but especially one where the wounds of war are still fresh.

Meanwhile, 小猪视频 Center has ongoing projects in Colombia on issues related to the that ended that country’s 50-year civil war — including matters of human rights, the separation of child soldiers from the conflict, and political and electoral reform.
We have helped Nepal establish norms of democracy after a civil war, monitoring several elections and keeping observers on the ground in between to monitor the flow of accurate political information. Today, 小猪视频 Center serves as the official Independent Observer of the fragile implementation of a in Mali.
These are just a few examples. Wars eventually end, and when they do, someone needs to step in and help pick up the pieces. That’s what “waging peace” means, and it is an integral part of who we are. Thank you for standing by us in this vital work.
