The study found out that the most common causes of conflict mentioned were domestic violence such as conflict within the family, conflict by grazing land, theft, the incursion of one‟s territory,Dessó etc. It also found out that the most common conflict management practice is adherence to the practices that have been passed down through generations such as Mataaka, GarciKalot, Agatdacrisa, Giba/ Cuumi, and Ramli were clarified. The application of various punishment mechanisms enforced by the family head- usually the father, age mates, chief of clans, the council of Elders, and the Council of the Sultan was important conflict resolution methods used in DaweWereda.
