  • Compare and disseminate analysis on the integration of religious leaders and faith-based organizations in peacebuilding.
  • TARE is designed for comparative analysis of three approaches to peacebuilding and will partner with religious leaders and faith-based organizations in three distinct ways to assess the:
  • Role of faith-based organizations and institutions in peacebuilding
  • Role of religious leaders in countering violent extremism
  • Role of religious leaders in peacebuilding.
General Position Summary
  • The Project Officer will support the implementation of activities related to capacity building for religious leaders and religious institutions, facilitation and implementation of joint PVE plans, and the facilitation of events related to advocacy initiatives.

Representation:
