DAI is looking to recruit Junior Non-Key Expert for Communication
Description of the Assignment
As part of TA workplan it’s envisaged that a Junior Non-Key Expert (JNKE) is to be recruited who will contribute to achieve the results under the A.PM4: Preparation and implementation of communication and visibility activities.
In line with the strategic approach of the TA, a communication and visibility plan was developed during the inception phase. Its main goal is to create awareness and visibility of the efforts of the project partners that are implementing projects under the Green and Smart Cities SASA Programme in Tanzania (SASA).

For this purpose, a workshop with project partners can be organized where the present Communication and Visibility Plan can be reviewed, changes agreed and then an updated document prepared.
