YCGI Building Peace With Multipartiality

We are a National peace building organization in Indonesia who works to connect groups from diverse religious backgrounds and generations to promote harmonious and interconnected communities that embrace diversity.

INTRODUCTION

Conflict and differences are inevitable but violence and division are not

At YCGI, we believe diversity should bring people together, not drive them apart. Since 2002, we have worked side by side with communities across Indonesia to prevent violence, promote tolerance, and prevent violent extremism.

We collaborate with government institutions, civil society, media, and local communities to turn differences into opportunities for dialogue and collaboration. Through education, arts and culture, creative media, and community-based initiatives, we help build safe and inclusive spaces where everyone belongs.

about us

Our Journey

YCGI is a legacy organization of Search for Common Ground, a global peacebuilding organization founded in 1982 and now active in more than 35 countries. Our journey in Indonesia began in 2002, driven by the urgent need to reduce violence and foster harmony in one of the world’s most diverse nations.

From the start, we become part of Search Indonesia’s efforts to build peace and prevent violent conflict. Through collaborative projects, leadership training, and tech-driven programs, we promote tolerance and mutual understanding. Working hand in hand with civil society, interfaith groups, government institutions, and law enforcement officers, we help restore social trust and solidarity among communities of diverse ethnic and religious backgrounds.
