Fundraising Assistant in Bolivia (El Alto) – Humanitarian Volunteer

FUNDACION ALIANZA POR LOS DERECHOS, LA IGUALDAD Y LA SOLIDARIDAD INTERNACIONAL

CPMGA

Ciudad de El Alto, Bolivia

Description

CPMGA is an organisation with more than 40 years of experience in El Alto. Its mission is to promote the recognition, enjoyment and full exercise of women’s human rights through a feminist and de-patriarchal approach that challenges unequal power relations and hegemonic structures. Its work combines territorial action, democracy, collective participation and inclusive dialogue among women. CPMGA operates in two main areas: the socio-political sphere, through projects on gender-based violence, sexual and reproductive rights, and citizen participation; and the economic sphere, through technical training and business incubation. To implement these projects, CPMGA requires external funding. The volunteer will support the identification of new funding opportunities, preparation of initial proposals based on CPMGA’s institutional information, drafting of preliminary budgets, and follow-up of potential funding sources.

Accommodation, food and transport arrangements

For safety and easy access to transport, food, healthcare, markets and supermarkets, accommodation will be located in a central and safe area of La Paz, either Sopocachi or Miraflores. Travel from these areas to CPMGA’s offices takes about one hour by public minibus or cable car. Volunteers may eat in restaurants or buy food at markets and supermarkets to prepare their own meals. The office also has a kitchen and dining area available to the volunteer, where they can interact with staff from other departments.
