• A genuine interest in community health and development

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Mobilise potential funding opportunities from donors, organisations and development partners

• Identify and develop partnerships with NGOs, CBOs, community groups and other local stakeholders

• Support the development of project concepts, funding proposals and partnership proposals

• Conduct community outreach and help identify community health needs and opportunities

• Represent Demand Health Charity Ltd in relevant community and stakeholder engagements

• Build and maintain relationships with potential partners and funding organisations

• Follow up on funding and partnership opportunities

• Support the development and implementation of community-based health projects as funding becomes available

TERMS OF ENGAGEMENT
