About this organization
Mission
End violent conflict. It’s our purpose — our call to action. Instead of tearing down an existing world, we focus on constructing a new one. We do this through a type of peacebuilding called conflict transformation. Meaning: we look to change the everyday interactions between groups of people in conflict, so they can work together to build up their community, choosing joint problem-solving over violence. Our mission is to transform the way the world deals with conflict, away from adversarial approaches, toward cooperative solutions.
About
In Africa, SFCG works to transform conflict across more than 15 countries. Our projects involve multiple stakeholders in activities including capacity building, dialogue, joint activities, and media outreach. Our work involves youth, women, civil society organizations and institutional partners.
