DEVLHON Consulting and WPDI, a Mutually Enriching Collaboration!

Devlhon Consulting is proud to announce its collaboration with the organization founded by renowned American actor Forest Whitaker: the “Whitaker Peace and Development Initiative” (WPDI).

What are WPDI’s missions?

WPDI operates in regions around the world facing conflict, armed violence, or exclusion. It mobilizes men and women to help them become peace mediators, entrepreneurs, and community leaders. Their goal is to promote sustainable development and peace by supporting young leaders through training in reconciliation, conflict mediation, entrepreneurship, and information and communication technologies. They also strengthen communities by encouraging social innovation, the development of youth- and women-led businesses, and other projects aimed at overcoming local challenges. WPDI spreads a culture of peace by promoting the values of dialogue, tolerance, and inclusion, while raising awareness of global injustices. In France, WPDI is active in Aubervilliers.
