WE'RE LOOKING FOR YOU:


The Sustainable Markets Specialist (SMS) will support the implementation of TEFOS III Program (a funded United Kingdom Government's cooperation strategy) that aims "to improve the livelihoods of people living in prioritised conflict-affected, deforestation hotspots, ensuring that forests are increasingly valued, and incentives are established that encourage local stewardship of the forests and a reduction in deforestation and conflict in the Amazonas Region." The focus of this program will be to kickstart projects, promote public-private partnerships, and improve the capacity of business to meet market demands.

The SMS will coordinate actions to both stimulate demand and improve the supply of sustainably produced commodities.
