Job Description
CARE seeks a Sr. Gender & Advocacy Advisor for an anticipated $25-49 million USAID-funded Climate Resilient WASH activity in Ethiopia. The goal of this activity is to accelerate the expansion and sustainability of climate-resilient water services and the adoption of key hygiene and sanitation practices in targeted pastoralist areas in Somali, Oromia, SNNPR, and Afar. The Activity will work to fulfill this purpose through four complementary intermediate results:1. Professionalize and expand climate-resilient water services; 2. Increase adoption of key hygiene behaviors, including MHH, and end open defecation; 3. Improve gender power dynamics; and 4. Strengthen the enabling environment for climate-resilient water and sanitation services.
