USAID/Burkina Faso Country Office is seeking a Democracy, Rights, Governance and Conflict Advisor who will support the design, implementation and monitoring of its Democracy, Rights and Governance and Countering Violent Extremism (DRG/CVE) programs. Burkina is on the front lines of a Sahel region-wide struggle against encroaching violent extremist organizations, so this position is an opportunity to make a difference in a difficult security and development context that is important for the whole West African region.  USAID’s DG and CVE work is vital to this effort and includes elections, human rights, governance, civil society, and CVE activities.  The Country Office works closely with the Government of Burkina Faso (GoBF), inter-agency partners, other donors, implementers and civil society. USAID/Burkina Faso reports to USAID Senegal and is supported by that Mission’s Sahel Regional Office (SRO).  The Advisor will also work closely with USAID West Africa’s Regional Peace and Governance Office (WA).
