Leveraging SKEEP for equitable responses to addressing societal challenges

In this presentation Margaret Ebubedik will draw on her body of work to share insights into her Stakeholder Knowledge Exchange, Engagement, and Partnerships (SKEEP) approach, which she has applied across diverse humanitarian, peacebuilding, and development contexts.

SKEEP, rooted in Indigenous knowledge systems, fosters collaborative, context-specific solutions to societal challenges by actively engaging local communities and diverse stakeholders. Drawing on her work with female trafficking survivors in Nepal, Nigeria, and Uganda, and in conflict-affected regions like Lake Chad, she will illustrate how this approach promotes sustainable interventions and empowers communities by integrating their lived experiences and knowledge. Through these experiences, she has learned that participatory knowledge exchange enhances the relevance, effectiveness, and long-term impact of interventions, supporting communities in addressing complex challenges.
