New Opportunities at RTI International October 2024

Job Description Overview
USAID
Tuhifadhi Maliasili (“Preserve Natural Resources”) project which
addresses dynamics that threaten habitat connectivity and the long-term
persistence of biodiversity in Tanzania invites in and out of the
college youth to apply for the first round of internship program. The
project targets the marginalized and often socially excluded groups
including the youth and women. Engagement and empowerment of youth in
the project as co-creators of solutions can significantly support
efforts to secure, protect, and sustain wildlife movement corridors and
promote the longevity and sustainability of the interventions.

USAID
Tuhifadhi Maliasili project has developed a Youth Mentorship Program
that aim to connect, support, and inspire the next generation of
conservators interested in biodiversity conservation and natural
resources management careers. This year, the project will roll out the
youth mentorship program in Kwakuchinja Wildlife Connectivity Area,
Amani-Nilo Forest corridor, Ruaha Rungwa Inyonga Corridor, Ruaha Rungwa
Katavi Corridor and Nyerere Selous Udzungwa Elephant Corridor. The
program involves pairing mentees (youth with academic training and a
keen interest in conservation and natural resources management) with
mentors who are seasoned experts in the field.

Also, we are
encouraging candidates who are interested on Natural Resources
Management (NRM) Policy and Biodiversity Conservation to apply by
explaining in a cover letter their interest on this field.

Responsibilities
Why should you apply?
The
mentoring process will aid mentees in developing their career, skills,
and expertise by drawing upon the experiences of the mentors. Mentors
will provide exposure to real-world conservation and natural resource
management activities implemented in their projects and by their
organizations. It is anticipated that, by the end of the program,
mentees will acquire conservation leadership skills, knowledge, and
understanding, thereby enhancing their prospects of securing employment
within the field of biodiversity conservation and natural resource
management.

Mentorship plan
Mentees will receive
mentorship for one year. Throughout this period, mentorship goals will
be collaboratively developed by mentors and mentees, clarifying the
roles and responsibilities of each party. The program will also entail
placements at organizations where mentors work, exposure to field
visits, and one-on-one mentoring sessions.
