The work is home based (remote) and will result in a 25-page paper over a six month period in 2024, with an agreed amount paid as an all-inclusive lump sum.

Qualifications: A Master’s degree, a publications track record, 5 years or more years experience working on youth engagement, including in/on Arab countries, and proficiency in Arabic and English.
