At the conclusion of the three-day meeting, the traditional authorities committed themselves to do their part in the process of post-crisis reconstruction in the country.
"We must get involved in education for a culture of peace and encourage the values that promote harmony and non-violence among the various communities, declared Koudou Gra, the supreme chief of the Krou people who live in the western part of Côte d'Ivoire. In his opinion, justice and peace must live in the hearts of all Ivoriens so that the country can develop in tranquility.
