Search for Common Ground (or Search) is an international non-governmental organization that works to end violent conflict and build healthy, safe, and just societies. It is the largest such organization dedicated to peacebuilding,[1] with offices in over 30 countries and a media reach of roughly 40 million people.[2]

Since its founding in 1982, Search for Common Ground has helped to avert genocide in Burundi,[3] supported post-civil war elections in Liberia and Sierra Leone,[4] shaped gender norms in Nepal with a TV show reaching 25 percent of the population,[5] and mainstreamed sexual assault training for soldiers in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.[6] In 2018, Search was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.[7]
