Introduction: Depuis plus de deux décennies, le territoire de Masisi au Nord-Kivu est plongé dans une crise dont les contours sont loin d’être connus. L’objectif de cette étude était d’évaluer les connaissances, attitudes et pratiques de la population du groupement Kamuronza en matière de gestion des conflits et de promotion de la paix en vue de contribuer à la consolidation de la paix en province du Nord Kivu. Méthodes: En novembre 2015, une étude descriptive a été menée auprès 448 personnes habitants les sept localités du groupement Kamuronza à partir d’un questionnaire d’enquête et de focus groupes Résultats: Des conflits fonciers, identitaires, socioéconomiques, liés aux viols et violences sexuelles et basées sur le genre et ceux liés à l’abus du pouvoir et à l’exploitation et au pillage des ressources naturelles ont été identifiés. Les connaissances de la population du groupement de Kamuronza en matière de gestion des conflits et promotion de la paix étaient insuffisantes. Une persistance des attitudes négatives au sein de la population a été observée ainsi qu’une insuffisance de bonnes pratiques en matière de gestion des conflits et promotion de la paix. Conclusion: La population directement concernée par ces conflits est à placer au centre de la recherche de solutions en privilégiant le renforcement de ses capacités communautaires en matière de gestion des conflits et promotion de la paix et le dialogue social qui lui permettra de mieux comprendre les causes de conflit et leurs dynamiques, et, lui donnera les moyens de formuler des actions concertées en faveur de la paix.
