Independent Evaluation of AVAIL Project

Notice Description

AVAIL is a partnership between the British Red Cross partner Red Cross Societies in Italy, Ireland, and Latvia and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent societies (ICRC) it is funded by the European commission. The British Red Cross (BRC) is recruiting for an independent evaluator to assess the overall impact of the AVAIL programme.
