Samuel Gbaydee Doe (born 11 November 1966) is a conflict, peace, and development professional from Liberia. Doe was a cofounder, with Emmanuel Bombande, of the West Africa Network for Peacebuilding (WANEP), based in Accra, Ghana. This organization focuses on collaborative approaches to conflict prevention and was founded in 1998 in response to the civil wars taking place in West Africa. The organization is known for their work with several regional partners such as the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and the African Union’s Economic, Social, and Cultural Council (ECOSOCC). == Early life and education == Samuel Gbaydee Doe (no relation to former Liberian President Sam Doe) was born in Sierra Leone in November 1966, and lived there for 6 years prior to moving to Liberia. He attended the University of Liberia in Monrovia intending to pursue a career in banking. While he was pursuing his Bachelor of Science degree in Economics in 1989 the First Liberian Civil War broke out. Following months of starvation and first hand experiences of the horrors of war on children, Doe decided to put his energies toward ending the conflict. In October 1990, in the midst of the Liberian civil war, Doe worked with the Catholic Church to establish the Archdiocesan Counseling Program a psychological trauma counseling program under Archbishop Michael Kpakala Francis to help reintegrate former child soldiers. He also worked with the Christian Health Association of Liberia (CHAL), and Centre for the Study of War Trauma and Children at AME Zion University in Monrovia.〔 He followed that to work with CHAL to establish a peer mediation program known in Liberia as the Student Palava Management Programme.〔http://www.gnwp.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/liberia-2.pdf〕 In 1995 Doe was a Caux Scholar at a center run by Initiatives of Change in Caux, Switzerland. He then served as an intern there and was appointed to a faculty position in 1997 until 2006 when he resigned to focus on his work at the United Nations. In May 1996 he traveled to the United States with sponsorship from the Mennonite Board of Missions and entered what was then called the Conflict Transformation Program at Eastern Mennonite University (now the Center for Justice and Peacebuilding) in the fall of the year. Following the completion of his degree in 1998, he returned to West Africa where he cofounded and was the first executive director of the West Africa Network for Peacebuilding (WANEP).
“I dreamed of a regional movement of civil society that would collaborate with regional intergovernmental bodies to restore not just stability in Africa but democratic freedom and prosperity. I dreamed of establishing an early-warning system throughout civil society that would head off violent conflicts before they ravage our societies. Those dreams became reality in just five years. The profound thing was the speed at which ordinary people mobilized for peace through the West Africa Network for Peacebuilding.”〔
