Sustainable water management is one of the most challenging issues of our time. Adequate freshwater supplies are critical for the health of communities and wildlife, and nothing is more important to agriculture’s ability to grow food. Roughly 1.7 billion people live in places, including the western United States, where unsustainable water withdrawals already threaten long-term water supplies, and water shortages are expected to increase in the majority of countries around the world. Climate-driven water scarcity and declining aquifers necessitate more precise measurement and efficient use of water to continue supporting vibrant communities and ecosystems while also producing food for the world’s growing population.

To sustain our water supplies and their many uses, decision-makers must understand not only how much water is available, but also how much water is being used. While supplies have long been tracked, information about water use — especially by crops and other vegetation — has been difficult to obtain. In most settings, this transfer of water back into the atmosphere is the second largest component (after precipitation) in the water cycle, yet access to this data has previously been limited and expensive, keeping it out of the hands of most water users and decision-makers.

OpenET (openetdata.org) is a nonprofit collaborative that generates evapotranspiration (ET) data for user-defined geographies and time frames across the western United States through an online platform that employs several well-established methods to generate daily, monthly, and annual satellite-based ET estimates. The web-based platform consists of data visualization and access tools as well as an application programming interface (API), providing publicly accessible and scientifically rigorous ET data and filling a critically important data gap in water management. The organization recently released a beta version of its newest application, the Farm and Ranch Management Support (FARMS), to allow users to make customized data requests and reports using a simple user interface. OpenET uses the best available science and publicly available data to increase access to satellite-based ET and consumptive water use information for farmers and water managers.

The OpenET collaborative includes leading national and international experts in remote sensing of ET, cloud computing, and water policy, partnered with internationally recognized web development teams and leaders in the western agriculture and water management communities. Core implementing partners include the Desert Research Institute, Environmental Defense Fund, and California State University – Monterey Bay. Cooperating federal agencies include NASA, USGS and USDA.

OpenET is driving transformational change in water management across the Western United States. The data it provides can help farmers improve irrigation practices; evaluate water conservation strategies, such as alternative crops; and reduce the costs of fertilizer, water, and energy. OpenET can also help rural communities design water accounting and trading programs to guide decisions about water use, and it can help build new water conservation programs. OpenET enables water managers and policymakers to develop and track more accurate water budgets in near real-time, and better operate water management systems. Finally, access to this information significantly increases the ability to collaborate across different scales of decision-making - OpenET enables policymakers and water managers to co-develop solutions with local communities, reduce the burden of regulatory compliance, and design incentive programs that support more sustainable water management.

Demand for OpenET data has accelerated since the launch of the public data explorer in 2021 and the application programming interface (API) in 2023. OpenET’s public data explorer and API are gaining traction across the American West and around the world — with over 5,000 OpenET user accounts and 130,000 API queries.

Internally, the Chief Executive Officer will develop and execute a corresponding business plan in cooperation with the Consortium Partners and the Board of Directors with pathways for global expansion. This dynamic leader will drive OpenET and the Consortium to realize the transformative potential of OpenET data to improve water management policies and practices.

The Brave Movement is a survivor-centered global movement campaigning to end childhood sexual violence.

Millions of children worldwide experience sexual violence. This threatens the safety and protection of all children and adolescents in our communities.

Childhood sexual violence remains a taboo and continues to affect individuals, families and communities globally. For many years, victims have been silenced, stigmatized, and shamed whilst perpetrators have been exempt from justice.

That changes now: sexual violence against children must be recognized worldwide as an unacceptable, preventable, and criminal act.

The Brave Movement is led by survivors of sexual violence with different backgrounds and experiences who share a common knowledge of what it’s like to feel alone, to be hidden, to live scared and to hold onto misplaced blame. As part of a growing global alliance, standing alongside these courageous survivors, the Brave Movements is campaigning to turn the shame onto perpetrators and systems that protect them and is determined to ensure that other children do not experience what our survivor leaders have.

Through the Brave Movement, survivors and allies together, we are calling for bold and transformative action to end childhood sexual violence for good.

IDinsight is a mission-driven global advisory, data analytics, and research organization that helps global development leaders maximize their social impact. We tailor a wide range of data and evidence tools, including randomized evaluations and machine learning, to help decision-makers design effective programs and rigorously test what works to support communities. IDinsight works with governments, multilaterals, foundations, and innovative non-profit organizations in Asia and Africa. We work across a wide range of sectors, including agriculture, education, health, governance, sanitation, and financial inclusion. Our team is made up of exceptional economists, data scientists, policy experts, and development professionals.

What we do

Through innovation, direct project work, and by working to transform the sector, IDinsight helps combat poverty using data and evidence.

We create and adapt cutting-edge data and evidence tools from tech, industry, and academia to meet the needs of governments, non-profits, and social enterprises. We launch initiatives that advocate for and enable practitioners to use evidence-driven approaches accountable to the people they serve. Our project work includes impact evaluations, Embedded Learning Partnerships with some of the world’s largest most influential policymakers and development organizations, and other services that facilitate data-driven decision-making. Read about our projects here.

Vision: Improve millions of lives by transforming how the social sector innovates, learns, and improves.

Mission: Help leaders use data and evidence to combat poverty.

The Opportunity

Globally, hundreds of millions of people are kept from fulfilling their human capabilities due to limited opportunities and freedoms. Reducing poverty and improving wellbeing by addressing the daunting “unfreedoms” of poor health and learning outcomes, economic and physical insecurity, and political marginalization represent the biggest challenges of our times. Yet resources dedicated to these challenges are not yet achieving the impact they could. Decisions on what problems to address are not informed by data and evidence that reflect people’s lives and pathways to progress.

In the fight against poverty, knowledge is power; those who use data and evidence have an edge. Few organizations, whether public or private, have the in-house capacity to generate the insights that provide this edge. This is where IDinsight comes in. We provide data and evidence services, tailored to our partners’ constraints and contexts, to amplify their impact. Our partners across Asia and Africa — whether government agencies, non-governmental organizations, or organizations providing external funding — use the insights we generate because they trust and respect the quality of our work and the intentions behind it.

We are looking for a CEO to build off of our successes and drive forward our social impact at a pivotal point of organizational growth. This is an outstanding opportunity for a leader with true vision and the ambition to create large-scale social impact using data and evidence.

This endeavor demands a leader who can: inspire the broader global development field and its decision-makers to adopt data and evidence-based approaches. They will attract, empower, and mentor internal leaders; guide IDinsight strategy; demonstrate IDinsight’s values in every action; conceptualize and launch large, high-impact new initiatives; and attract financial resources to fund innovative projects and the organization’s scale-up. IDinsight’s senior leadership, including highly independent regional directors will allow the CEO to focus on the most high-leverage strategic and influential initiatives to achieve our mission.

Head of Philanthropy

Location: Hybrid, globally remote and home-based with regular time in the Geneva office

Reporting to: Director of Operations with close collaboration with the Executive Director

Manages: Line management of two          

Annual salary: 140,000 CHF, salary will be adapted for other locations

Contract type: Permanent

Working hours: Full-time

Candidate level: Management

Background

The tragedy of conflict-related sexual violence persists as women: mothers, sisters, daughters, and men: boys, fathers and sons are raped and sexually tortured without restraint. Once, twice, dozens of times or more, by perpetrators who continue to walk free, leaving survivors’ lives shattered. This reality remains as unacceptable as ever and failure to recognise the harm caused or to provide redress exacerbates the damage done.

The Global Survivors Fund (GSF) was launched in 2019 by Nobel Peace Prize laureates, Dr Denis Mukwege and Nadia Murad, with a mission to enhance access to reparations for survivors of conflict-related sexual violence across the globe.

GSF acts to provide reparative measures in situations where others are unable or unwilling to meet their responsibilities, responding to a gap long identified by survivors. As well, GSF also assists and advocates for the international community to develop supportive, reparative programmes for survivors around the globe. With a survivor-centric approach as the cornerstone of its work, GSF is establishing an important new team that will shape and lead GSF’s ambitious goals and vision.

Up until now, GSF have almost exclusively raised funds from governments and public institutions, however, the inaugural Head of Philanthropy will be responsible for spearheading GSF´s diversification of income sources from trusts, foundations, and private philanthropists. 

Purpose of role

The Head of Philanthropy will be responsible for leading and driving the private funding strategy to deliver 5 M CHF annually by 2026. The strategy is focused on raising funds from national and global cross-border trusts, foundations, and private philanthropists with a particular focus on the USA, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and the Nordic countries.

GSF already have a strong network of contacts and the Head of Philanthropy will work with existing contacts and build up new, long-term relationships with donors to deliver the fundraising strategy. GSF is currently in the process of setting up registration in the USA to facilitate fundraising.  

This is an exciting opportunity to nurture and grow a team, and closely collaborate with colleagues. Once in post, the Head of Philanthropy will appoint two new positions to be line managed and cultivated, creating an effective, driven fundraising team.

Leading the new team, the Head of Philanthropy sits within the directorate which leads on global engagement with all donors. Adept at working in all traditional environments, as well as engaging with new philanthropists, the successful candidate will confidently speak and persuade donors to ‘live and breathe’ their commitment to GSF’s unique work to support survivors.

Responsibilities

• Drive the private funding strategy, with clear focus on agreed goals and targets.

About Equal Measures 2030 (EM2030):

MADRE is an international women's human rights organization and feminist fund that partners with community based women's groups in Africa, Asia and the Pacific, Latin America and the Caribbean, and the Middle East who face war and humanitarian disasters. MADRE works towards a world in which all people enjoy the fullest range of individual and collective human rights; resources are shared equitably and sustainably; women participate effectively in all aspects of society, and people have a meaningful say in decisions that affect their lives.

MADRE offers a comprehensive model of support to our grassroots partners using three interconnected strategies—grantmaking, capacity bridging, and legal and policy advocacy—to meet urgent needs and create opportunities for women and girls in marginalized communities to assert their agency and voice.

Using these strategies, MADRE provides long-term and flexible financial and direct service support to community-based women’s and girls’ groups that have been historically marginalized.

We work at the intersection of three program areas—Ending Gender Violence, Advancing Climate Justice, and Building a Just Peace—and across five priority communities that have been historically marginalized and continue to face exclusion: young women and girls, Indigenous women, Afrodescendant women, LGBTIQ+ people, and persons with disabilities.

We have been privileged to be the first grantmaker to hundreds of under-resourced organizations that frequently cannot access traditional funding sources.

Delivering technical assistance (e.g., consulting with site leads, facilitating meetings, developing agendas, providing or arranging for subject matter expertise, reviewing and analyzing local data) to jurisdictions/agencies with a focus on racial equity and community engagement. Developing curricula, serving as faculty, and coordinating in-person and virtual trainings on racial equity and community engagement. Conducting relevant research on an as-needed basis. Providing project management support (e.g., developing progress and other interim reports for funders; managing project consultants; assisting with contracting and oversight of project partners).
QUALIFICATIONS

Bachelor’s degree required. Direct experience (lived or professional) may be substituted in lieu of a degree.

Ability to work independently and flourish in a virtual work environment. Highly collegial attitude and adept at working in a collaborative environment.

After numerous conversations with college and high school students, Dick recognized that students and young adults entering the workforce lacked basic money management skills. Dick founded My Money Workshop in 2009 to address the need for financial literacy and the lack of financial education in schools. Since Dick’s passing in 2015, his family has continued his legacy and commitment to teaching and providing financial literacy to people who need it.

We serve as a premier financial literacy provider to youth and adults, enabling participants and the communities we serve to improve their lives by achieving their financial short-term and long-term goals.

CorStone is an internationally-recognized nonprofit organization that develops and provides personal resilience programs to improve well-being for youth worldwide, focusing on adolescent girls as critical change-agents in their communities. CorStone is headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland, US and currently conducts programs in India, Rwanda and Kenya. 
 
We believe that cultivating emotional resilience is a foundational step in helping youth to thrive—one which is often missing in development programs worldwide. Our evidence-based resilience programs work from the ‘inside out’, employing a strength-based approach to target the internal and social assets that youth need to overcome challenges and flourish. Research shows that CorStone’s Youth First and Girls First resilience programs improve mental, emotional, social, physical wellbeing, and school engagement in a host of diverse, marginalized populations.
 
Over the past decade, CorStone has provided resilience-based training to nearly 200,000 marginalized youth across India, Rwanda, and Kenya, and is set to reach approximately 5 million youth per year by 2025 via partnerships with governments and other NGOs. We have also conducted some of the first and largest studies of resilience interventions in LMIC populations. 
 
We are launching a network model that will allow local organizations and governments to adapt and conduct Youth First among their students.

The International Program Director will also be responsible for launching and managing a community of practice regarding the intersection of resilience and gender in LMICs. This position represents an important member of our leadership team at CorStone and will also participate as a member of CorStone’s the Leadership Board.
 
Responsibilities
Supervisory responsibility for established network programs. Active co-leader with local management and US- and India-based leadership team on these programs.
Develop and manage budgets and plans pertaining to program expansion with new partners and countries.

Ensure high-quality project management, record-keeping, and data-driven decision-making in program conduct.
