Short description:

The USAID Resilient Communities Activity (RCA) is a five-year regional activity aimed at advancing local capacity in peacebuilding and addressing vulnerabilities of marginalized groups across Central Asia. Implemented by DAI Global LLC, the activity works closely with both government and civil society partners to deliver services to the most at-risk communities, expand local ownership opportunities, and increase protection against violent trends. The USAID Resilient Communities Activity focuses on mitigating radicalization by fostering resilient, community-based systems at all levels—community, family, and individual—while emphasizing gender equality, youth involvement, and social inclusion. A core RCA responds to developing trends and adapt strategies through learning to achieve the overall project goal of reducing risks of and increasing resilience to violent extremism (VE) in Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. The RCA Activity will end on September 30, 2027.

The activity is designed to promote social inclusion, youth engagement and women’s roles in peace and security. The Activity aims to achieve the overall project goal of reducing risks of, and increasing resilience to, violent extremism in the region. The Team Lead (LD) is responsible for the overall management and success of the RCA activity, providing strategic leadership and technical vision. They will work collaboratively with the USAID Mission to Central Asia, USAID/Tajikistan, potentially other USAID missions in the region, and program partners to ensure successful implementation.
