Organizational Setting

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) is implementing the AFR100 Support Programme – “Supporting AFR100 by engaging with small-scale forest and farm producers” (GCP/GLO/1208/GER) in Tanzania, with interventions focused on the Monduli – Karatu landscape in Arusha Region. The Programme supports locally led Forest and Landscape Restoration (FLR), strengthened producer organizations, restoration-based enterprises, and improved livelihoods.

Implementation in the landscape is carried out in collaboration with local authorities, communities, Forest and Farm Producer Organizations (FFPOs), and several specialized service providers. Effective delivery therefore requires strong field-level coordination, technical oversight, and regular monitoring to ensure that interventions are coherent, technically sound, and aligned with agreed restoration priorities and workplans.

FAO therefore seeks to recruit a Landscape Coordination and Forest Restoration Specialist - to serve as the Programme’s field-based focal point in the landscape. The consultant will coordinate partner activities, provide technical guidance on FLR, regularly monitor implementation on the ground, facilitate collaboration among stakeholders, and support timely identification and resolution of implementation challenges.
