PACT Overview

Pact is an international nonprofit that works in nearly 40 countries building solutions for human development that are evidence-based, data-driven and owned by the communities we serve. Founded in 1971, Pact works with partners to build resilience, improve accountability, and strengthen knowledge and skills for sustainable social impact.

Department

Responsible Mining Practice - This is an integrated project shared between Pact’s Livelihoods program and its Responsible Mining Practice. While this project focused on mining communities, for this position, no previous knowledge of mining is required. The ideal candidate will have thematic experience in child protection or forced labor. Responsible Mining Practice - Pact’s responsible mining practice assists mineral-dependent communities to gain lasting benefits from the more sustainable use of the natural resources around them. Pact takes an integrated approach to its work in the mining sector: we link mining to livelihoods, governance, child protection, health, environment, and the strengthening of local, regional and national institutions. The responsible mining practice is currently active in ten countries, working with all scales of mining from large scale industrial operations (LSMs) to individual Artisanal and Small-scale Miners (ASMs) and their communities, in remote areas.
