Employment at WaterAid Africa - 08/12/2016

Call for Expression of Interest (EoI)

Consultant- Conducting Regional Donors Scoping Study

 

Location: anywhere

 

Deadline : Friday 8^th December 2016 (17:00 hours)

 

As part of WaterAid Global Strategy 2015-2020 all the six WaterAid country programmes in West Africa developed their Country Programme Strategies for the next five years. Each country programme strategy will contribute to achieve WaterAid’s vision of universal access to water, sanitation and hygiene by 2030. In addition to support CP strategies and ambitions as they seek to diversity their funding portfolios some are planning to become self-governing entities.

 

In order to deliver on these ambitions and ensure these strategies are fully funded, it is necessary for WaterAid in West Africa to diversify its funding base, to ensure the programme is financially sustainable. As such WaterAid West Africa is now looking to develop a holistic fundraising strategy, which will clearly outline the key actions, timescales and resources needed to meet this target. WaterAid West Africa is therefore looking to engage a consultant to assess the donor environment in the region. There is a massive amount of data already available at both country and regional levels. The consultant will collate these, identify new opportunities and constraints for in-country fundraising and make recommendations on how best we can position ourselves at both levels to maximize those opportunities.
