MA’AN Development Center:
MA’AN Development Center is an independent Palestinian non-profit organization, established in Jerusalem in January 1989. Through a human rights-based approach and active community partnerships, MA’AN focuses on empowering marginalized individuals and groups, enhancing their resilience, and promoting their participation in sustainable development. MA'AN’s mission is to support these communities to recover from crises and realize their full potential.

About the Project:
This project is designed to strengthen the resilience of young women and men, as well as their local communities, in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, with a particular focus on the Jordan Valley and Northern Gaza Strip—key agricultural regions. The project will directly benefit an estimated 185 young women and men (116 females; 69 males), focusing on providing them with Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) for employment. The primary target group includes unemployed young women and men aged 18-29, as well as enterprises. The project also aims to support agribusinesses, agritourism initiatives, agricultural cooperatives, women’s enterprises, and technology or Innovation Transfer Hubs to address existing skills gaps.

The project’s relevant outcome, led by MA’AN, is to empower crisis-affected young women in Gaza by improving their access to gender-responsive TVET, thereby enhancing their livelihoods and resilience within the agribusiness and agritourism sectors. During the project period, the following outputs will be achieved:

  • Informing and supporting young Palestinian women to enroll in TVET programs focused on agribusiness and agritourism.
  • Increasing decent livelihood opportunities and resilience for young women in WB.
  • Supporting young women in WB to develop their capacity to advocate for gender justice and actively participate in decision-making processes within TVET and skills development frameworks.

Main Duties and Responsibilities:

Key Role:
Manage the implementation of the TVET Education Program, specifically in agribusiness and agritourism, targeting young female graduates (22-24 years old) in Gaza.

Key Tasks:

  • Oversee the announcement and promotion of TVET opportunities for young women in the target areas, including preparing the application forms, receiving and reviewing submissions, and participating in the selection process.
  • Coordinate with the community center staff to arrange and conduct orientation sessions about the MA’AN TVET programs. This includes handling logistics, coordinating with the procurement department, following up with consultants, inviting trainees, and documenting the activities.
  • Assist in developing Terms of Reference (ToRs) for consultancy services and ensure the timely delivery of consultant assignments.
  • Provide regular progress updates to the supervisor and represent MA’AN in meetings and workshops when required.
  • Contribute to drafting progress reports for the project.
  • Collaborate with other MA'AN departments to ensure effective and smooth project implementation.
