Namati Program Associate Jobs in Kenya

Namati’s Community Land Protection Program proactively strengthens communities’ ability to protect, document, and defend their customary and indigenous land rights.

Drawing on eight years of fieldwork and research, Namati works with national partner organizations to support communities to complete a powerful five-part process for protecting community lands and natural resources.

Our integrated approach combines the legal and technical work of mapping and documentation with the good governance work of resolving land conflicts, ensuring intra-community equity, and strengthening mechanisms for accountable and participatory sustainable management of land and natural resources.

In Kenya, Namati supports communities and the Government of Kenya to use the Community Land Act to strengthen land tenure security, strengthen local land governance, enhance women’s land rights, and support communities to more sustainably manage land and natural resources.

Namati is searching for a hardworking, organized ambitious self-starter who will support Namati’s Community Land Protection Program in Kenya.

Responsibilities will be based on the varied needs of the team and will include supporting monitoring and evaluation efforts, writing and editing, administrative support, correspondence and outreach, organizing travel and event logistics, and other special projects.

The successful candidate will also play a role in supporting grassroots partners to improve data quality and management.

The Program Associate will be expected to take initiative, pay careful attention to detail, and establish systems where needed to meet the needs of a growing program.
