About Us
RICCE works to empower rural communities to take charge of their destinies.
Our work in rural communities covers a range of programs including; Food Security, Gender Equality and Women Empowerment, Environmental Safety and Biodiversity Conservation, Income Generation Activities, Peace Building and Reconciliation, etc.
We have worked across the 15 counties of Liberia with our work effecting hundreds of rural people’s lives and influencing many policy recommendations.
Our Core Programmes
Across Liberia, thousands of people depend on agriculture for their livelihood. A major challenge for farmers is the lack of access to finance, tools, and seeds which impedes their productivity. To feed the growing population which continuously increasing -Liberia needs to boost agricultural production.

The Liberian civil war ended in 2003, but the scars of that conflict still endure. Despite global efforts to help Liberia peacefully rebuild post-war, there are still some ethnic and political tensions in parts of Liberia. These tensions often flare up and result in violence against marginalized groups and the destruction of property.
This programme is aimed at preventing and managing conflicts at the national and community levels. READ MORE
