The main purpose of this study was to explore about the role of Zewolid negotiations in terms of peace building, solidarity and social relationships among neighborhoods in the case of rural Raya communities. Descriptive qualitative research approach with case study design was employed to meet its objectives.

Key informant interview; in-depth interview and focus group discussions were methods of data collection in the study. Thematic data analysis was applied to analysis data. The findings of the study revealed that competition over land, marriage related issues, blood revenge and drunkenness were sources of conflict among neighborhoods in the study area. Moreover, justice procedures, law enforcement mechanisms, community participation, promoting norms and values, provision of emotional support were mechanisms used to keep peace and solidarity among neighborhoods in the area. According to this study challenges in Zewolid negotiation were political intervention, poor infrastructure, rigidity, poor capacity and low commitment of elders; violation of human rights and lack of inclusiveness.
