About the Organization
USAID/West Africa is a regional mission with development assistance activities in 19 countries. The Mission is located in Accra, Ghana. The USAID/West Africa’s regional democracy, governance, and human rights (DRG) and countering violent extremism (CVE) activities are managed from the Regional Peace and Governance Office (RPGO).
USAID/West Africa implements the majority of the USAID portion of the multi-agency (USAID, Department of State, and Department of Defense) Trans-Sahara Counterterrorism Partnership (TSCTP). This strategic partnership represents the U.S. government’s (USG) single, largest effort to assist potentially vulnerable regional and national actors to constrict the tactical and strategic operating environment of terrorists in the West Africa sub-region.
RPGO’s CVE work spans the region and addresses threats from various extremist groups such as Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb and Boko Haram, among others. Funding for these efforts, from TSCTP and other sources, averages approximately $15 million a year.
RPGO is seeking the services of a Senior Technical Advisor to support the technical engagement of the multi-country team in designing innovative CVE programming, contribute to the development of a new Regional Development and Coordination Strategy (RDCS) and responding quickly and thoughtfully to various tasks to inform new RPGO CVE activities and interventions across the region.
