Key findings:

Below are the suggestions made by the focus groups for peaceful coexistence in local and different communities: 1) Initiating movement restriction laws on cattle keepers; 2) Comprehensive disarmament across Lakes and neighboring state; 3) To bring all culprits to the law and tightening rule of law and orders in applying them on to offenders; 4) Initiating peace dialogues among conflicting communities; 5) Immediate settlement of all pending cases.

Below are the suggestions made by the focus groups for peaceful coexistence in local and different communities: 1) Comprehensive dissemination of peace messages, like peace committees in other payams do the same task in their respective communities; 2) Peace committees to initiate community peace meetings and invite top spiritual leaders together with armed youth to discuss peace issues, disadvantages of conflict and how best to prevent conflict; 3) To apprehend all culprits to the law and tightening rule of law and orders in applying them on to offenders. 4) Review of compensation rule on ground because the qualities paid as blood compensation are of very poor which trigger revenge; 5) To settle of all pending cases which may trigger violent.
