SECOND Call for Volunteers to Join the Ethiopian Diaspora Trust Fund’s Project Review Team (PRT)

When EDTF first issued a call for proposals in July 2019, we expected to receive two or three dozen proposals.

We did not expect to receive some 300 plus proposals from a diverse group of civil society and NGO groups.

Currently, we have quite a few experts in a variety of fields on board already.

However, given the workload, the need to complete a thorough evaluation of all proposals and timely implementation of projects, we need many more experts.

The PRT is a team of independent and high-level technical experts from Ethiopia and Ethiopians in the diaspora that will review and rank all project proposals submitted to EDTF.

The PRT will recommend high impact, need-based and innovative projects for the decision of the EDTF Board of Directors.

We are looking for qualified professionals with vast project review, management and thematic area expertise to join the PRT.

If you think you can fit the profile and contribute your expertise to a great cause, please send your CV to fikre.z@ethiopiatrustfund.org until October 06, 2019.

The primary objective of the EDTF is to finance people-focused social and economic development projects. The Fund aims to finance projects that meet critical needs selected based on their potential to make the highest positive impact on groups and communities in Ethiopia in such areas as health, education, water and sanitation facilities, habilitation and rehabilitation of persons with disability, agricultural development, technology, small scale entrepreneurship and other income and employment generating projects. The EDTF will give priority attention to projects focusing on youth, women, small- holder farmers, small enterprises and entrepreneurs, who can be agents of inclusive social and economic development.
