    Be Our Lead Data Intelligence and Amplify the Voice of SDGs in Africa!

    Are you passionate about data and dream of seeing your analysis concretely transform lives? Do you have the ambition to convey powerful messages based on irrefutable evidence and to awaken young people to understand the stakes of the SDGs, so they can become actors in their own future? If you're driven by a strong desire to commit and make a difference, then this unique opportunity is for you!

    We're looking for a Lead Data Intelligence for Development to join our dynamic association and spearhead a crucial initiative: ODD Watch Africa. Our objective is clear: to use data for advocacy and positively influence the acceleration of SDGs in development policies across Africa. To achieve this, we'll launch a series of impactful articles, titled "YSI SDG Diagnostic," which will analyze the knowledge and perception of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)across the continent, relying on open-source survey data from local surveys.

    Your Mission, at the Heart of Action and Influence:

    As the Lead, you'll be the data strategist behind our advocacy efforts. You won't just analyze; you'll transform these analyses into strong arguments for our publications. You'll also have the incredible opportunity to mentor highly motivated young students and high schoolers. You'll be their guide, transmitting your passion for data and training them to become future experts in development and data-driven advocacy, guiding them to understand these issues so they can demand to be among those who decide the future.

    • Advocate for Concrete Impact: Use open-source survey databases to measure and analyze SDG awareness in Africa, building strong advocacy arguments that will accelerate their implementation.
    • Pilot the "YSI SDG Diagnostic" Series: Your analyses will form the basis for publishing numerous impactful articles, designed to inform debates, influence decision-makers, and raise public awareness.
    • Transform Data into Action and Awareness: Identify gaps, successes, and opportunities to propose concrete recommendations and optimize initiatives for the SDGs, while equipping young people to become informed actors.
    • Embody Leadership and Inspiration: Actively mentor curious young minds, share your knowledge, and cultivate their enthusiasm for data analysis and advocacy for sustainable development, helping them recognize their power to act.
    • Actively Contribute to the SDGs: Become a key player in raising awareness, understanding, and advancing the Sustainable Development Goals in Africa.

    Why This Opportunity is Unique for You:

    • A Major Role of Influence: Your analyses won't just stay on paper; they'll form the foundation of our advocacy actions and will have a direct impact on SDG acceleration and decision-making.
    • An Ambitious Publication Project: You'll be at the heart of creating a series of articles that will become a reference for SDG knowledge in Africa and serve as a basis for targeted advocacy actions.
    • Inspiring and Formative Leadership: You'll not only develop your technical skills but also have the opportunity to train, inspire, and shape the next generation of professionals committed to development, giving them the keys to understanding and acting.
    • Join an Energetic Association: We're a passionate and committed team that firmly believes in the power of data to drive change and mobilize young people.
    • Accelerated Development: This is the perfect opportunity to take on responsibilities, sharpen your skills in data analysis, communication, and leadership, within a dynamic and meaningful environment.

    If you have the will to learn, this passion for data, and the commitment to leave a lasting impact in Africa through the power of data and advocacy, all while inspiring future decision-makers, then don't hesitate! Show us your motivation and ambition!
