VSO
is the world’s leading international development organisation that
works through volunteers to fight poverty. Working in 24 countries
around the world, our unique role in international development is to
place committed volunteers with carefully selected organisations where
their skills can have the greatest impact. Our extraordinary volunteers
live and work in some of the world’s poorest communities. Sharing their
unique skills and experience to generate new ideas and new ways of doing
things, helping the communities they work in lift themselves out of
poverty. We’re not about delivering quick fixes, but instead we focus on
long-lasting, sustainable change, that will impact generations to come.
Join us and help us work towards our vision of a world without poverty.
Role overview
The
consultant will be expected to work closely with staff from VSO
Tanzania and to some extent from VSO Uganda. The initial stage of the
work can be undertaken remotely, if required, with the remainder of the
time being spent in country in Tanzania, working with staff and
volunteers there. The initial outputs of the work will be piloted in a
real project situation, and the consultant will be expected to provide
mentoring and guidance during at least the start-up of the piloting.
Based on lessons learned from this experience some modification of the
training materials will be required.
The
aim is to develop a highly participatory package of materials, and to
work closely with VSO Tanzania staff in the process, so that capacity is
developed to continue to implement this training package, as well as to
advise other country offices on its usage.
