The Organisation

Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls.

We believe in the power and potential of every child. But this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it’s girls who are most affected.

Working together with children, young people, our supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges facing girls and all vulnerable children.

We support children’s rights from birth until they reach adulthood. And we enable children to prepare for – and respond to – crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge.

We have been building powerful partnerships for children for over 85 years, and are now active in more than 80 countries.

Driver at GIZ Rwanda | Kigali: Deadline: 22-08-2023

Vacancy Announcement

Driver

for Cooperation on Peace, Security and Responsible Resource Governance in the Great Lakes Region (Support to ICGLR)

The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is a federally owned international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide operations. The GIZ Office in Kigali covers GIZ’s portfolio in Rwanda and Burundi. GIZ Rwanda/Burundi implements projects on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, the European Union and other commissioning authorities in the following priority areas: Sustainable Economic Development, Good Governance, Climate and Energy, Digitalization, Extractive Governance and Peace and Security in the Great Lakes Region.


GIZ has been commissioned to implement the project “Sustainable Development of the Mining Sector in Rwanda”. The Action aims to strengthen the contribution of the mining sector to economic and social development through a holistic and demand-oriented intervention. Even though the Rwandan government authorities endorse professionalization and the application of international standards in mining operations throughout the country, the actual implementation still needs support regarding operationalized and digitalized sector services, capacity building, sensitization and targeted trainings. The intervention will apply a holistic approach and combines direct support to the Rwanda Mines, Petroleum and Gas Board (RMB), support to relevant TVET institutions and schools delivering mining skills training, and support to private supply chain actors.

More specifically, rudimentary mining techniques and limited mining and processing skills together with low usage of modern technology are the major issues affecting the potential growth of the mining sector in Rwanda. The dominant use of simple tools leads to low productivity and weak processing of extracted materials, leaving a big percentage of minerals unrecovered in tailings and has serious effects on the environment. RMB in cooperation with GIZ and the German Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (Bundesanstalt für Geowissenschaften und Rohstoffe, BGR) started to develop mineral processing skills as well as on occupational health and safety through training and demonstrations across different 3T mine sites during 2021 and 2022. The present project will build upon the achievements.


The project “Sustainable Development of the Mining Sector in Rwanda” thus intends to:

  • enhance compliance with responsible mineral sourcing standards,
  • support modernization through digitalization of licenses and RMB services,
  • strengthen the provision of TVET skills on mining,
  • improve professionalization through the strengthened application of international safety and environment standards, as well as with EU regulations.

The project is part of a wider commissioning to GIZ supporting the International Conference on the Great Lakes Region (ICGLR) in implementing its Pact on Security, Stability and Development in the Great Lakes Region, including the protocol on the Regional Initiative against the Illegal Exploitation of Natural Resources.


GIZ would like to recruit a candidate for the position of Driver for GIZ Cooperation on Peace, Security and Responsible Resource Governance in the Great Lakes Region (Support to ICGLR).
