For U-LEAD with Europe: Ukraine - Local Empowerment, Accountability and Development Programme we are looking for an Advisors on Capacity Development (full time, 100%) to work in Dnipro and Poltava.

In the last few years, Ukraine has launched an ambitious decentralisation reform, which reshapes the relations between the national, regional and local levels of public administration and promotes their institutional capacity building. The Ministry of Regional Development, Construction, Housing and Municipal Services (MinRegion) is responsible for the overall implementation of this reform process. A Central Reform Office coordinates the implementation of the reform process in close cooperation with 24 Regional Centres represented in all Ukrainian Oblasts. With its main office in Kyiv and its four Regional Hubs in Chernivtsi, Dnipro, Lviv and Poltava the U-LEAD programme provides substantial support to the reform process on all governmental and administrative levels and to its harmonisation with other national reforms. The U-LEAD programme’s unit on capacity development (CD) works closely with the MinRegion, other line ministries, public authorities and training institutions both in Ukraine and abroad to promote the decentralisation reform with a particular focus on building and enhancing capacities. Thereby, the CD unit addresses the development of persons, institutions, networks, overall strategies and policies.

For our Regional Hubs in Dnipro and Poltava we are looking for Advisors on CD.
