Since 2002, PU-AMI has implemented humanitarian projects in the occupied Palestinian territory mainly focusing on 3 sectors of intervention: Cash Fork Work, Agriculture recovery and WASH (Water Sanitation and Hygiene). From 2012, PU-AMI has oriented the goal of its humanitarian program on protecting livelihoods and securing economic access to food when and where populations are directly exposed to violations of the Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law. Starting from 2013, PU-AMI is implementing one long term project, “Women Economic Empowerment” (WEE) project, funded by the European Union (EuropeAid). In this framework project, PU-AMI is partnering with a local women organization for the purpose of supporting the empowerment of women in 10 Community Based Organizations (CBOs) of the Northern of West Bank (Salfit and Qalqilya) through raising knowledge, improving awareness and strengthening the employability and the entrepreneurship among women in 10 isolated villages.

As part of the WEE project, PU-AMI is looking to recruit a national consultant, team of consultants or legally constitute consultancy institution to develop a community awareness-raising strategy that aims at educating men, women and the general public, including traditional leaders and decision makers, on the importance of the role of women in society; focusing on the economic sector and on rural areas (villages in Area B and C in the North Districts of Qalqilya and Salfit).
