I. INTRODUCTION
The Foundation for Post Conflict Development (FPCD) is a neutral organization and makes
no judgment on conflict or the manner in which a conflict was resolved. FPCD provides tangible
results in post conflict development. The foundation’s three pillars are centered around
education, action and development. In furtherance of these goals, the FPCD works towards the
establishment of a reputation within the international community as an organization that educates
others, and inspires action at all levels to arrive at development in post conflict countries.
The Foundation for Post Conflict Development was formally incorporated in New York on April
25, 2005 as a not-for-profit organization recognized as tax-exempt under The United States of
America Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3).
Post conflict countries are more vulnerable than other countries. Vulnerabilities become
compounded with the added strain of reconstruction, reconciliation and healing from trauma.
Post conflict development is different from conflict resolution. The FPCD does not attempt to resolve conflict but rather focus on the creation of tangible projects that combat poverty and benefit post conflict countries in the spirit of the Millennium Development Goals.
The Foundation seeks to actively educate within post-conflict societies. Making sure post
conflict countries have adequate education is imperative to post-conflict development. This can
be through formal mechanisms at schools, but also through youth centers and the execution of
development projects that transforms life and lifts people out of poverty.
As there already exist other organizations that focus on the trauma of a post-disaster (man-made
or natural) situations, FPCD was founded at a time when there appeared to be a vacuum of
targeted Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), particularly in the United States, focusing on
post conflict development within the context of the UN Millennium Development Goals.
DEFINITION OF POST CONFLICT
Post conflict and conflict-affected countries can be classified as such due to a variety of factors.
For example, a Post Conflict situation can occur after, though not limited to, the following:
� Interruptions in elections;
� Racial / cultural tensions;
� Border disputes;
� Internal Civil strife;
� Bilateral strife
� Any of the above resulting in cross-border or internal displacement.
All of these situations have a number of consequences which are specific to the type of conflict
and the character of the communities in which they occur. The FPCD abstains from defining conflict or attempting to resolve conflict.
5 | P a g e
ACCREDITATION TO THE UNITED NATIONS Effective 17 June, 2009, FPCD received official association with the Department of Public
Information of the United Nations. The Committee on Non-Governmental Organizations of the
Department of Public Information (DPI) approved the Foundation for Post Conflict
Development for association with the UN Department. The FPCD's association constitutes a
commitment to disseminate information and raise public awareness about the purposes and
activities of the UN and issues of global concern. The FPCD's engagement in UN activities will
assist in the creation of global partnerships for development. The FPCD is represented at the
United Nations by Directors Arielle Messuti and David Gethings.
The FPCD will keep the DPI/NGO Relations Department informed of the FPCD's activities and
publications. Through this partnership the FPCD continues to carry out its mission to educate
the general public on the needs of countries emerging from conflict situations while establishing
concrete development projects either alone or in concert with partner organizations in order to
fulfill the United Nations Millennium Development Goals.
A copy of the official accreditation letter is available on the FPCD website.
GLOBAL COMPACT
By official letter to the UN Secretary-General on December 17 2006, the FPCD signed the
Global Compact committing the organization to adhering to and promoting principals of human
rights, labor, the environment and anti-corruption within its sphere of influence. The FPCD
participates actively in UN Global Compact meetings and received permission to use the official
“We Support the Global Compact” logo on its materials.
PEACEBUILDING COMMISSION
The FPCD and the Peacebuilding Commission (PBC) are leading actors in the International
Community with a specific focus on countries emerging from conflict situations. The FPCD has
included as part of its mission the following of work of PBC. The FPCD regularly promotes the
PBC’s work on its website and electronic newsletters and will endeavor to strengthen relations
with the PBC.
PRINTING IN POST CONFLICT COUNTRIES When possible, FPCD prints its newsletters, publicity materials, and stationary in post conflict
countries. This provides jobs on one hand and also demonstrates the FPCD commitment to assist
post conflict countries.

sphere of influence.
THE FPCD LOGO
FPCD Board of Directors spent considerable time developing the identity of the Foundation that
accurately and symbolically represented the goals of the FPCD. In the fall of 2005 a logo design
company was commissioned to professionally project the image of the Foundation by embodying
the FPCD mission statement. After months of careful consideration and seeking feedback from a
variety of sources, the Board of Directors chose what is now known as our logo.
8 | P a g e
The logo is a simple symbol of the world with blue for water and green for the environment and
vegetation – the basis for life on our planet. The dual colors of blue and green in the circle also
symbolize the goal of peace through sustainable development.
The faint shadow of the globe on the bottom of the logo depicts the reality of where we are now
–a world where there exists many countries affected by war and conflict, in need of
reconciliation, reintegration and development. One can find anything positive in the logo,
however overall, the logo is FPCD’s vision of hope for countries as they emerge from conflict
situations toward post conflict development. SISTER FOUNDATION: FUNDAÇÃO XANANA GUSMÃO
The Foundation for Post Conflict Development is a civil society partner in improving global
development and seeks to work with organizations that place development as a priority. In this
vein, the FPCD and the Fundação Xanana Gusmão (FXG) has formally joined efforts as sister
Foundations through a memorandum of understanding signed between patron and Founder of
FXG, H.E. Xanana Gusmão and Founder and Executive Director, Claudia Abate of FPCD, on 20
March 2006 in Lisbon, Portugal.

work, both for present and future generations, and contribute to fulfill the aspirations of the
Timorese people.

III. OUR STRATEGIC FOCUS 2010 – 2014
Women, Youth, Veterans, the Environment: 8 Global Priorities
WOMEN Priority 1: FPCD will build five maternity clinics. Our current and past projects geared toward women include: The Princess Grace Maternity Clinic – in progress 2010 - 2011
The Prince Rainier III Maternity Clinic – completed 2008
Rationale: In an effort to reduce infant and maternal Mortality rates in Timor-Leste, and provide
access to health care in rural areas, the FPCD facilitated the creation of the first Maternity Clinic
in Timor-Leste which has now become the model for the Ministry of Health in Timor-Leste.
The first project took place from 2005- present and was funded by the Monaco Red Cross and
Government of the Principality of Monaco;
To date, more than 1000 babies have been born and not a single mother has perished thanks to
the generosity of Prince Albert II of Monaco and the Principality of Monaco.
The future Princess Grace Maternity Clinic will be in Oecussi District, Timor-Leste.
Priority 2: FPCD will support the Iraqi Women’s Fellowship Foundation (IWFF).
Iraqi Women’s Fellowship Foundation (IWFF)
Rationale: FPCD is committed to assisting the IWFF with support for women’s education. The
IWFF plays a pivotal role in the development of much-needed engineering and applied sciences
skills, by providing Iraqi women with access to top-rated US universities in the US and the
10 | P a g e
Middle East. It further reinforces the Iraqi government’s restoration of women’s rights. The
program in engineering and applied sciences is two-pronged, providing for:
� A one year faculty visiting scholarship to top universities in the US, to upgrade their
knowledge and teaching skills, or undertake research.
� A four-year student program in undergraduate study at American university campuses in
the Middle East. YOUTH
Priority 3: FPCD will build five youths centers per year. A total of twenty youth centers over the course of the next five years. Our current and past projects include:
The Viqueque Youth Center in Timor-Leste -completed 2010
The Becora Youth Center in Timor-Leste – completed 2008
Rational: In order to address some of the pressing developmental needs of Timor-Leste, the
FPCD received funding for the construction two Youth Centers in the capital city of Dili. With
young people making up nearly 60% of the population, the Youth Center will provide an
alternative to gang violence through constructive activities. The project was overseen and
executed by FPCD's sister foundation, Fundação Xanana Gusmão. It was made possible by a
grant from the United Nations Staff 1 % For Development Fund in New York.
Focusing on youth is important for the future of Timor-Leste and post conflict countries. Young
people need to be motivated and have role models.
Music, sports and computer activities are currently underway for the youth community and used
as a tool for peace.
Priority 4: FPCD will build one multi-purpose training center in Timor-Leste. Multi-purpose Leadership and Training Center, Timor-Leste
Rationale: Nurturing the nation’s youth, alongside with the development of sports, it is
necessary to have a multi-purpose training center capable of supporting the development of
sports nationwide. This ambitious undertaking aims not only at the development of sports
activities but to create the necessary infrastructure and organizational framework to support the
promotion of leadership skills and peacebuilding activities for youth and other actors of society.
Various models of peacebuilding through sport can be used, such as the successful Generations
for Peace model founded by Prince Feisal of Jordan whereby a team of Timorese youth leaders
have already been trained in Amman, Jordan at the Peace Camp hosted by the Generations for
Peace Organization in December 2009. The proposed multi-purpose leadership Training Center
could house future Peace Camps amongst other important community building activities.
11 | P a g e
VETERANS Priority 5: FPCD will raise funds for one veteran’s museum in Timor – Leste. Our current and past projects geared toward veterans include: Veteran’s Museum – Archive and Museum of the Timorese Resistance
Rationale: In post conflict countries, veterans of the conflict require proper recognition and
documents of the conflict require preservation for future generations.
The Archive and Museum of the Timorese Resistance was inaugurated on 7th December 2005,
representing a major step towards accomplishing the most important on-going project to preserve
and promote the memory of Timorese people’s heroic struggle for Independence.
The development of on-going activities regarding the preservation, classification and publishing
of all documentation from the period of the Timorese Resistance is still necessary. Therefore, the
Museum is only partial completed and the FPCD has committed to help raise funds and
awareness in order to finish the project.
Priority 6: FPCD will support Research on Veterans
The Guerrera Book Project
Rationale: Veterans play an important role in post conflict development. Partnering with the
Guerrera Book Project, the FPCD will advance personal stories and research of the remarkable
feats of veterans, with an emphasis on women and publish its findings. Around the globe and
throughout time, women have played crucial roles in armed struggles for social justice. This
project, co-directed by Julie Michelle Klinger and Emma Gaalaas Mullaney, aims to amplify the
individual and collective voices of Guerreras: women who have taken up arms to struggle for a
cause.
ENVIRONMENT
Priority 7: FPCD will plant 100 (one hundred) kitchen gardens. Priority 8: FPCD will promote biodiversity and greener environments in 5 post conflict countries. Current and past projects include: The Reforestation, Horticulture and Family Income Project in Timor-Leste
Rationale: The Reforestation, Horticulture and Family Income Project is an integrated approach
to lifting people out of Poverty. Under the auspices of President Jose Ramos Horta’s antipoverty
Initiatives, not only is the country becoming ‘greener’ but kitchen gardens and sustainable
development through the diversification of food crops have helped to ensure food security
among families and contribute to the regrowth of Timor-Leste’s natural resources which include:
12 | P a g e
rich coffees, a variety of luscious fruits, exquisite spices and the world’s finest sandalwood and
tropical hardwoods.
The Principality of Monaco, the Government of Timor-Leste and FPCD are securing the
environmental health of Timor-Leste through this community based approach.
Green Community Hub Project in South Africa
Rationale: Clean running water is a human right as identified in Article 24 of the United Nations
Charter. In post conflict situations, the need is overwhelming and we must work together to
create global partnerships for sustainable development. In this regard, the Foundation for Post
Conflict Development joined efforts with Hands on the World Global (HOWglobal) to create a
Green Community Hub that will allow the Umgodi Primary School of 600 students and the
surrounding village of over 1,500 people to have access to running water.
Lifau Sandalwood Park and Environment Center in Oecussi, Timor-Leste
Rationale: The Sandalwood Tree is in danger of becoming extinct in Timor-Leste. A plan has
been devised to safeguard the national tree with four serious components: The Sandalwood Park
and Nursery; The Environmental Protection Center; A Retail Center and a Festival Ground.
These components are there to make the Sandalwood Park sustainable in 3 years, instill
environmental knowledge, teach important planting skills that can be replicated throughout the
country. The Sandalwood Park and Environmental Center will be a model across the globe for
restoration and preservation of natural resources.
Biodiversity as an Educational and Nation-Building Tool in Timor-Leste
Rationale: A population that is educated about the importance of its country’s biodiversity will
be more inclined to preserve it and recognize it as a natural, national treasure.
Ever since the beginning of the colonial period, the environment of what is now Timor-Leste has
been threatened. This threat began as an external one, with the exploitation of sandalwood, and it
has now become an internal one, as serious poverty is maintaining unsustainable practices for
making a living. FPCD is supporting efforts to educate residents about their environment by
using commonly seen amphibians and reptiles as an example of the country’s unique natural
heritage. A survey of the amphibian and reptile fauna of the country, conducted by FPCD
International Board of Advisors member Dr Hinrich Kaiser, has been underway since 2009.
While the educational process will begin in 2011 with the training of instructors at the country’s
national university (UNTL), the trained individuals will begin an environmental and
sustainability education campaign in all districts beginning in 2013. This will be augmented by
the publication of environmental awareness posters, guides, and even a set of postage stamps.

IV. ADMINISTRATION RESEARCH The FPCD has research associates affiliated with the Foundation. The research makes a
contribution to academia and intellectual discussion about post conflict issues. The FPCD
collects and recounts data on countries emerging from conflict; and informs on the post conflict
development activities of the United Nations. The FPCD publishes the results of its research in
journals and international publications, as well as on its website.
For example, the following research papers are on the FPCD website: Detention in Rwandan Gacaca Courts by Joseph Stefanelli and National Identity Formation AndEducation In Post-Conflict Development by Marina Ohanjanyan. Future research includes How to Make Peace- and Nation-Building Work? Lessons the Atlantic Community Can Learn from Post 2nd World War Germany by Dr. Michaela Hertkorn.
In addition, the Guerrera Book Project presented the following work at the 2010 Annual Meeting
of the Association of American Geographers in Washington, D.C.: Gendered Negotiations of Forgiveness, Truth and Reconciliation in Timor Leste by Julie Michelle Klinger, and
Guerreras' Justice: Legacies of Resistance and Gendered Contradictions in Timor Leste by
Emma Gaalaas Mullaney.
FPCD welcomes the submission of research.
LEARNING CENTER The FPCD will create a Post Conflict Development Learning Center, to serve as a place where
students and friends of peace and development can convene and learn about FPCD’s work, the
needs of post conflict countries and the work of the United Nations in this arena. This may be an
on-line center or housed within the FPCD office, depending on interest.
14 | P a g e
GRANT WRITING AND FUNDRAISING In order to further the mission of FPCD and sustain the future of the FPCD, grant writing and
fundraising efforts are a priority.
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT The FPCD is benefiting from the professional services of Growth Leaders – a company that
specializes in organizational leadership development. The board of directors and advisors to the
board are participating in comprehensive workshops that will strengthen team building and
cohesiveness. Each member to complete the course will receive a certificate.
