Project intern

By Live Lover -

Farm Africa is a different kind of charity, working to end hunger and bring prosperity to rural Africa. We work with different types of farmers (pastoralists, agro-pastoralist, smallholders and forest dwellers) in a range of regions in eastern Africa. Their specific situations vary but most are facing increasing economic, health and environmental vulnerability. We work with them, and other stakeholders, to develop, test, and support the roll-out of successful solutions to achieve long-term improvements in their lives. We believe Africa has the power to feed itself.

We are currently seeking a Project intern - livestock, for the Farm Africa - AMREF Kenya WASH and Food Security Integrated Project.
You will be assisting the Project officer - crops, to introduce and promote the tested Farm Africa dairy goat model. As part of your active role as an important member of the AMREF - Farm Africa partnership project team, you will:
  • Be guided by the Project Officer (PO) and other partner staff to develop effective and coherent plans for the livestock and agriculture component
  • Assist the PO to ensure effective and successful planning, budgeting, management and implementation of the entire project as guided
  • Assist the PO to build the capacity of the local communities, enabling them to manage their agricultural and livestock resources and livelihoods sustainably
We are looking for someone with a passion for working with rural small holder farmers and with a level of academic and/or professional background that demonstrate an understanding of farmer participatory research, data collection and analysis.

You will have a relevant certificate or diploma level qualification and sound knowledge of the livestock sub-sector development and policy environment in Kenya.

Please be advised that Farm Africa will pay a small stipend to the successful candidate and will in addition cover other project facilitation costs within the project limitations. Such may include allowances, transport and accommodation while on field visits. Medical expenses are not covered.
