About CorpsAfrica:
Founded in 2011, CorpsAfrica provides the opportunity for Africans to serve as volunteers in their own countries, along the lines of the Peace Corps model. We train college-educated young Africans and send them to live for up to one year in rural, high-poverty communities to facilitate small-scale, high-impact projects that are identified by local people. CorpsAfrica aims to promote a culture of public service in Africa by giving participants the opportunity to apply their education, skills, and energy toward helping their fellow citizens overcome extreme poverty. www.corpsafrica.org
CorpsAfrica has steadily expanded operations from Morocco to Senegal, Malawi, Rwanda, Ghana, and Kenya over the last decade, with plans for Nigeria, Uganda and Ethiopia this year. Having successfully proven the power and effectiveness of the model, CorpsAfrica has begun to receive significant funding from large donors. As we reach a point of significant inflection leading to future expansion, we seek to add motivated, capable, and highly effective staff to our team.
Overview of the Position:
CorpsAfrica seeks a highly motivated and experienced professional to serve as the first CorpsAfrica Green Coordinator. CorpsAfrica Green is an environment-focused initiative that empowers Volunteers to recognize the effects of climate change in their communities, learn best practices of how their communities are adaptating, and support projects in their communities to build resilience, protect natural resources, and improve quality of life.
