Description de l’offre

Administrative Assistant
(Dakar – Senegal, West and Central Africa)
ICRISAT is seeking applications for the position of Administrative Assistant to serve for the Accelerating Impacts of CGIAR Climate Research in Africa (AICCRA) and Hyperlocal Elicitation and Understanding of Risks to Stability in Complex Systems (HEURISTICS) projects based at ICRISAT Dakar, Senegal.
The Administrative Assistant will report to the project Coordinator based in Dakar, Senegal.

ICRISAT is a non-profit, non-political organization that conducts agricultural research for development in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa with a wide array of partners throughout the world.
ICRISAT and its partners help empower those living in the semi-arid tropics, especially smallholder farmers, to overcome poverty, hunger, malnutrition and a degraded environment through more efficient and profitable agriculture.

AICCRA is a 3-year World Bank funded project and led by ICRISAT that envisions increasing access for agriculture research and extension service providers in Africa to knowledge, technologies, and decision-making tools relevant to enhancing the resilience of agriculture and food systems in the face of climate change.
The project aims to implement the sub-regional component of AICCRA in WA through building multi-actor partnerships of existing scientific and educational networks and centers in order to achieve outcomes through engaging with individual partners at country level.
Specifically, this project will enhance the capacity of national regional public institutions and private firms (e.g., input providers, ICT companies, media) to develop delivery models for climate services and for CSA knowledge, approaches and tools to support effective intra-regional and south-south adoption in various value chains.
AICCRA builds on the valuable experience of CCAFS which brings together the world’s best researchers in agricultural science, climate science, environmental and social sciences to identify and address the most important interactions, synergies and trade-offs between climate change and agriculture.
CCAFS is structured around four closely inter-linked global research flagships: Climate-smart agricultural practices;
Climate information services and climate-informed safety nets;
Low-emissions agricultural development; and Policies and institutions for climate-resilient food systems.
