Content_paragraphs:  In line with the Action for Peacekeeping principles to advance nationally owned
  
  political solutions to conflict, MONUSCO supported provincial authorities in Ituri in
  
  holding a series of consultations that resulted in the signing of a peace pledge in
  
  Mahagi territory by 42 traditional chiefs and leaders, including eight women, from
  
  the Lendu community, and the adoption of a road map by 60 local leaders, including
  
  nine women, from the Alur community. Consultations held in July with traditional
  
  chiefs from the five communities in Djugu territory (Hema, Lendu, Ndo Okebo, Nyali
  
  and Mambisa) led to commitments to engaging in a dialogue process and working
  
  towards the disengagement of communities from armed groups.
