  • Oversee production of research papers on peacemaking lessons, based on demand from interlocutors.
  • Scope for potential new projects and develop new project feasibility studies.
  • Support the Project Directors and Operations Team in donor management and project accountability, including contributing to preparation of project proposals and budgets, and reporting in line with donor requirements.
