Darfur Peace and Development Organization is non-profit and non-sectarian. It seeks to restore reconciliation where conflict exists in the Darfur region of Sudan through advocacy and humanitarian aid to the needy people in Darfur region, without regard to race, religion, sex or national origin.

DPDO has a Women's Center Program that equips Darfurian women on an individual and collective basis with the resources to resolve the consequences of sexual trauma.

The approach is holistic- integrating psychological, social, educational, and economic elements. Other projects include the Darfur Schools Project, the Solar Cooker Program, the Darfur Archives Project, the Community Dialogue Project and Advocacy.
