Search for Common Ground (SFCG) is an international non-profit organization that promotes peaceful resolution of conflict. With headquarters in Washington, DC and Brussels, Belgium, our mission is to transform how individuals, organizations, and governments deal with conflict – away from adversarial approaches and toward cooperative solutions. We seek to help conflicting parties understand their differences and act on their commonalities. With a total of approximately 750 staff worldwide, we implement projects from 55 offices in 34 countries, including in Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and the United States. The organization is an exciting and rewarding place to work, with dedicated and enthusiastic staff that loves their work.
Within Sub-Saharan Africa, SFCG works in 18 countries: Burundi, Chad, Central African Republic, Côte d’Ivoire, Democratic Republic of Congo, Guinea, Kenya, Liberia, Madagascar, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zimbabwe. SFCG began working in Kenya following the post-election violence of 2007-2008, with the production of the TV drama “The Team”. Our programming seeks to promote peace and end violence, using radio programs, outreach activities, and support to local organizations. Search Kenya programming is currently working in the Coastal region in Kwale, Kilifi, Mombasa, Lamu, Garissa and Tana River Counties. Together with its implementing partners Search is implementing projects that seek to strengthen youth participation in peace and security efforts in Coastal Kenya as well as supporting the effective, conflict sensitive response to COVID-19, in a way that prevents further deterioration of social cohesion of fragile states such as Kenya.
