About Voluntās (Latin: will, goal, purpose, meaning)
Voluntās specializes in providing meaningful research and monitoring and evaluation services in developing countries, conflict zones, fragile states, and transitional environments. We use our insights to inform fact-based recommendations and policy options grounded in extensive research and data collection. Our goal is to have a positive, sustainable impact on populations affected by crisis to improve their living standards and access to rights.
To-date, Voluntās has implemented over 125 projects in volatile regions with partners including UN agencies, the EU, USAID, and international NGOs. We have a presence in nine countries, with ongoing projects in East and North Africa, the Middle East, and Ukraine. Our projects focus on policy and programming, needs assessments, perception studies, contextual analysis, and monitoring and evaluation. We work on thematic areas such as the environment and climate change, conflict resolution, employment, food security, gender, governance, human rights, migration, political economy, prevention of violent extremism, public health, WASH, and youth.
We are currently looking for a highly motivated individual to support our monitoring and evaluation projects as an associate or senior associate in Beirut.
