MISSION
Third i Paradigm supports individuals and communities create new paradigms for building resilience and change to achieve sustainable social transformation. We integrate trauma and conflict sensitive approaches into development assistance projects to mitigate underlying social harm and chronic stress factors which keep communities locked in cycles of conflict.
METHODOLOGY
Third i Paradigm collaborates closely with partners and communities to develop culturally appropriate and context specific interventions to promote personal and social transformation. The methodology focuses on re-orienting negative perceptions and narratives contributing to group polarization to facilitate positive coexistence. It strengthens agency and a sense of belonging to reduce marginalization and isolation, which are often pre-existing in conflict-prone communities, and further exacerbated by harm and chronic stress.
TEAM & PARTNERS
Third i Paradigm builds mutual trust, healthy collaboration and momentum through continual mentorship and support to our team and partners, during each phase of development and implementation.
