Want to make a positive difference to the future of people and our one shared home, the Earth?<\/p>\n
Working with WWF could be your opportunity of a lifetime:<\/p>\n
All around the world, people are waking up to the deepening crisis of nature loss. A growing realization that<\/p>\n
nature is our life-support system. And that nobody will be spared from the impacts of its loss. Here at WWF, we<\/p>\n
are helping to tackle this enormous global challenge.<\/p>\n
Our people come from hugely diverse backgrounds and with a variety of expertise, ranging from HR and finance<\/p>\n
to advocacy and conservation science. We welcome applications from anyone who believes they can help us<\/p>\n
create a better future for people and wildlife.<\/p>\n
What we do:<\/p>\n
We are an independent conservation organization, striving to sustain the natural world for the benefit of people<\/p>\n
and wildlife. From individuals and communities to business and government, we are part of a growing coalition<\/p>\n
calling on world leaders to set nature on the path to recovery by 2030. Together, we seek to protect and restore<\/p>\n
natural habitats, stop the mass extinction of wildlife, and make the way we produce and consume sustainable.<\/p>\n
WWF Network has moved to the development and the implementation of 9 Practices with Global Goals to be<\/p>\n
achieved. For the Congo Basin countries to actively contribute to the Outcomes of some Practices (Wildlife,<\/p>\n
Forests, Food, Climate & Energy, Freshwater and Governance) implemented in their respective programmes, it<\/p>\n
is important to have a monitoring programme designed and implemented accordingly.<\/p>\n
Regarding new challenges and the need to continue and extend the monitoring programme to other developed<\/p>\n
goals and objectives in alignment with the Practices, the implementation of the Congo Basin Biomonitoring<\/p>\n
Programme has been adapted. The programme has been built as an \u201cIntegrated Biomonitoring Programme\u201d<\/p>\n
which is meant to be integrated into day-to-day activities for more efficiency. The adaptation made will support<\/p>\n
field programmes and countries in delivering conservation outcomes and impacts for an easy contribution to the<\/p>\n
Global Goals.<\/p>\n
The SMART Approach is critical for Law-Enforcement activities contributing to the Wildlife Practice. Assessing<\/p>\n
such an approach may help in achieving conservation outcomes as well as in decision making at site, national and<\/p>\n
regional levels.<\/p>\n
We are therefore seeking for a Biomonitoring Intern who will assist the Regional Biomonitoring Programme in<\/p>\n
completing some key activities in Cameroon, Congo, Gabon, DRC and CAR. He will be in charge of collecting data<\/p>\n
at field level, compiling and checking the quality of key datasets related to Law Enforcement in all sites of interest<\/p>\n
and updating available databases to ensure proper data and reports management in close collaboration with the<\/p>\n
Congo Basin Biomonitoring Officer.<\/p>\n
Location: Yaound\u00e9, Cameroon<\/p>\n
Duration: One year<\/p>\n
Main responsibilities:<\/p>\n
Under the supervision of the Regional Biomonitoring Coordinator, and in close collaboration with the Congo Basin<\/p>\n
Biomonitoring Officer, the national teams and field projects, the Congo Basin Biomonitoring Intern will mainly<\/p>\n
focus on SMART (Spatial Monitoring and Reporting Tool) approach data compilation and reporting at regional<\/p>\n
level.<\/p>\n
He will then support in other data gathering from field sites and data extraction from SMART reports in order to<\/p>\n
consolidate the SMART-Evaluation Database. He will also participate in data processing, analysis and reporting<\/p>\n
in the SMART Evaluation process.<\/p>\n
