Jobs in Tanzania 2022: New Job Vacancies at Avocats Sans Frontières (ASF) 2022
Avocats Sans Frontières (ASF) Jobs 2022
Consultancy at Avocats Sans Frontières (ASF) November, 2022
Job Description
The extractives sector has been growing over the past couple of years in Tanzania, particularly in northern regions rich in minerals, and in areas affected by the transnational East African Crude Oil Pipeline. While a key driver for economic development, such projects may also have potential harmful impacts for surrounding communities, such as environmental destruction, the exacerbation of economic or gender inequality, the rise of a precarious job market with a lack of decent working conditions, and land rights as well as other human rights violations. In this context, it is fundamental for those suffering human rights violations to be able to voice their complaints, find redress for their grievances and hold those who commit harm accountable for their actions.
