Project Development Intern-ACTED Retour vers les opportunités

• Zero Exclusion, because nobody should be left behind; society is enriched when it can benefit from all the voices and ideas of its members; and the vulnerability of marginalized populations can be reduced by promoting citizenship, inclusive institutions, vibrant civil society, and accountable governance mechanisms, policies and actions.  
• Zero Carbon, because we only have one planet; we want to pass on to our children social, political and economic systems that respect and protect natural balances, flourishing life on land, healthy oceans and seas, an ecologically sound development model and a global governance of the commons.  
• Zero Poverty, because poverty should not hold back potential; poverty is an intolerable entrapment of people who could otherwise contribute to positive change, which is reproduced from generation to generation, it is our collective responsibility to ensure systems promote protection of the most vulnerable and offer opportunities. 

The Project Development Intern will be part of the Programme Development Department and support the projects implemented by Acted throughout Tunisia and Libya.

The project “Coordinated Response to the Rise of Violent Extremism in Tunisia”, operating in five governorates including Kasserine, Kef, Sidi Bouzid, Jendouba, and Tunis, aims to raise awareness among Tunisian youth, particularly in regions hardest hit by economic and social crises, to combat stereotypes and extremist discourse. In partnership with various local stakeholders and ministries, it seeks to develop innovative approaches to promote intercultural dialogue, gender equality, and active citizenship participation. The main challenges lie in the need to strengthen youth confidence in institutions, effectively coordinate actions at the local level, and ensure the sustainability of extremism prevention initiatives while addressing the specific needs of the most vulnerable regions.
