The Global Community Engagement and Resilience Fund (GCERF) is the only global fund to prevent violent extremism.
Violent extremism is a direct threat to international security, economic growth, and development.ย GCERF works to prevent violent extremism by investing in people. As the only global fund dedicated to preventing violent extremism (PVE), we connect local communities to global resources, supporting grassroots initiatives that are typically out of reach for international donors.ย We fund community-centric initiatives led by civil society organisations to address the local social, economic, and political drivers of violent extremism.ย
Our investment strategies and programmes are aligned with national strategies and action plans to prevent violent extremism. We help implement these strategies at the local level, tailoring them to fit local circumstances and needs. This ensures that our efforts are both relevant and impactful, fostering resilience against violent extremism and promoting sustainable peace within communities. In the last 10 years, our programmes have directly engaged around 4 million individuals, strengthening their resilience against violent extremism and providing hope and better opportunities for a more prosperous future. Robust monitoring, evaluation, and learning processes ensure our programmes are effective.
