About the company
Swisscontact is a Swiss-based non-profit international organization registered in the U.S. federal government's System for Award Management (SAM) since 2011, specializing in technical development cooperation and international aid. As a foundation focused on sustainable development, Swisscontact provides services across multiple international contexts, with a particular emphasis on refugee assistance, youth development, and economic empowerment programs. The organization is structured as an international non-profit entity that engages in complex humanitarian and economic development initiatives, demonstrating a robust capacity to deliver targeted interventions in challenging global environments.
Through federal contract sub-awards, Swisscontact has executed strategic development projects, notably including a grant with Management Systems International, Inc. in August 2020 to develop a virtual mechanism for food supply coordination in Bolivia. This project specifically targeted 19 municipal governments in the metropolitan regions of La Paz, Cochabamba, and Santa Cruz, focusing on food security responses during the COVID-19 crisis. The contract work demonstrates Swisscontact's ability to create innovative information-sharing platforms and address critical economic challenges in response to global disruptions.
In federal grant awards, Swisscontact has been involved in comprehensive youth development and refugee assistance programs. A significant recent grant from the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration, valued at $2,002,343, focuses on supporting migrant populations in Colombia through emergency relief, social integration, and sustainable development initiatives. Additionally, Swisscontact has participated in sub-grant awards with Catholic Relief Services and Mercy Corps, including a five-year USAID program in the Democratic Republic of Congo targeting 28,000 marginalized youth and another program in Niger's Tillaberi region aimed at building resilience and preventing violent extremism. These grant activities highlight Swisscontact's expertise in youth empowerment, skills development, economic opportunity creation, and humanitarian assistance across diverse international contexts.
