We help stakeholders identify and address complex challenges in migration, peace, security, and development

In a world where governments and communities face complex challenges in migration, peace, security, and development, we provide the solutions they need. At S&A, we specialize in designing and implementing comprehensive strategies that get to the heart of the issue. By analyzing the context and asking the right questions, we help our stakeholders assess risks, prevent conflict, and build systems that respect sovereignty, human rights, and integrity. Our sustainable, integrated approach ensures that our clients can navigate these challenges effectively and create lasting, positive change.

How do we deliver results?

Strategic Governance and Capacity Building

  • S&A will help establish strategic, inclusive partnerships taking a risk management approach. We will identify the right interlocutors and facilitate communication and negotiation platforms towards sharing resources, integrating expertise and maximizing capacities and synergies. Building the skillset and knowledge of each party in order to negotiate fairly and openly with each other is key to partnership work.

  • Capacity-building is at the heart of S&A approach and covers diverse themes. Interventions, at all levels, are tailored to the wider context and integrated horizontally and vertically, thus guaranteeing a systemic and comprehensive approach. Skills and abilities will be developed in a subsidiary and inclusive manner, accounting for the relationship between individuals, organizations, communities and state systems.

  • Mediation services or skills-buildings initiatives encompass regional, cross-border and private-public partnerships necessary for the security and development of communities. Mediation can be carried out on behalf of the client to establish partnerships, and operationalise the whole of government and whole of society approach crucial to sustainable, peaceful solutions. This includes for mechanisms for handling grievances and claims.

Comprehensive Program Development and Crime Prevention

  • S&A can create and implement integrated programming towards addressing challenges in peace and security, including, among others, housing land and property issues, dispute resolution, governance and rule of law at local, state or national levels. Sustainability and exit strategies are factored in and operational strategies and procedures will be developed, and M&E tools established and handed-over to measure progress. Programming is based on identified needs, issues or dynamics, using inclusive processes.

  • Comprehensive integrated case management responses can be co-designed, based on available options and looking to global or regional best practices. Case management systems will be protection based, support active inclusion and tailored towards addressing needs of vulnerable individuals. This 360 degree structure guarantees oversight and M&E capacity for continuous feedback and adjustments to prevent deviations, including violent extremism and radicalization.

  • Community interventions will be developed to integrate and complement interventions already conducted at the individual level with expertise from psychologists, educators, and religious figures. Community platforms will ground interventions horizontally and vertically in the local community structures, to better support the results achieved at the individual level and prevent potential deviations, and support sustainability.

Knowledge-Driven Strategies and Capacity Building

  • We design and run research and assessment projects to form a sound evidence base, taking a risk management approach. This supports the creation of innovative and targeted programming tools and strategies. Research and assessments uncover and identify potential issues, dynamics, and gaps that can be addressed, and contain recommendations that are smart, measurable, actionable, realistic and time-based.

  • Continuous M&E is performed to determine whether activities proceed in accordance with plans, adapt and steer them towards the suited direction, assess foreseen and unforeseen impact, and whether objectives are achieved. Services are thus accountable and transparent. Specific expertise is required to develop and apply the appropriate context-based tools needed to guarantee intended quality.

  • Mentoring activities are structured to respond to different settings/audiences. S&A can offer direct mentoring or coaching, or link to other specialized organizations. Lessons learned are applied to participants, beneficiaries and authorities, along with S&A Associates. Accountability and learning are critical to maximize resources and time. There will be periodic assessments and surveys of the mentees to identify areas for training or guidance.
