The project will further support ECOWARN, an operational regional early warning system run by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) in cooperation with West African civil society, in particular the West African Network for Peacebuilding (WANEP).

-- 3+ years of experience working in Africa on Early Warning Systems. Familiarity with the African Union Continental Early Warning System or the ECOWARN database is a plus
