Candidate Brief for Appointment of Conflict Transformation Manager

About RTC

RTC was established in 1991 and has supported thousands of people in the midst of some of the world’s most violent conflicts to transform violence and build peace. We think people should be at the heart of the peace building process. We believe that the most powerful tool for creating lasting peace is equipping communities with skills and knowledge to enable them to make the changes they desperately need themselves, in accordance with their beliefs and community systems. We therefore help people to build the capacity to address conflict and integrate conflict sensitivity into their work.

Our Vision

“People affected by conflict and violence are at the heart of building lasting peace with justice”.

Our Mission

“To work with people who live in situations of conflict and violence to develop the skills knowledge and confidence to create and implement strategies for peace and justice”.
