  • working with the communications team to develop key materials tailored to key audiences (videos, brochures, presentations, social media content).
• Working closely with our Co-Founder to support her broader engagement activities.
• Provide logistics support to our Programme team, partner organisations and beneficiaries (Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities, youth, women groups, etc) to attend international conferences, workshops and events.
