  • 1000, Bruxelles
  • November 10

Based in Brussels and active in over a dozen countries, the European Institute of Peace (www.eip.org) is an independent organisation working collaboratively with the parties to the conflict, those who represent people suffering from insecurity or at risk of violence, as well as European decision-makers and the conflict prevention, resolution and mediation community. We provide practical experience, technical expertise, and policy advice on conflict resolution. We use a variety of tools to help us do this, including analysis, mapping and design of peace processes and agreements, facilitating policy discussions, and proposing practical engagement, for example through inclusive dialogue and mediation support. Are you captivated by our innovative approach to peace, and do you want to contribute to the mission of our institute? Do you share our vision for a world where people live in safety and peace because conflicts and grievances are resolved through inclusive dialogue and lasting political agreements? We are looking for a Programme Officer​ to support the Institute’s Climate and Environmental Peacemaking (CEPM) programme within the Peace Practice and Innovation (PPI) unit. Project context The Climate and Environmental Peacemaking (CEPM) Programme of the European Institute of Peace (EIP) aims to enhance conflict resolution in response to climate change and broader environmental challenges in conflict contexts, thereby contributing to a sustainable environment and improving the prospects for durable peace. Environmental peacemaking seeks to explore the relationship between climate, environment, and natural resources and conflict and peace dynamics, aiming to discover new approaches to foster dialogue and reconciliation. The CEPM programme aims to support peace leaders and local communities in addressing climate and environmental concerns within the broader framework of peace processes, including conflict prevention and resolution. The Environmental Pathways for Reconciliation (EPfR) project aims to support sustainable peace in Yemen by engaging local and national actors in environmental dialogue and cooperation. The project supports local and national actors to identify and act upon these environment-related security risks, using them as entry points for dialogue and elements of peacemaking. Within the scope of the EPfR project, the Institute is seeking a Climate and Environmental Peacemaking Programme Officer to coordinate an international team in delivering its outputs. The Officer would possess thematic knowledge in environment, climate, peace and security, and have relevant programming experience in conflict-affected and fragile contexts, along with results-based management skills. Reporting to the Climate and Environmental Peacemaking Manager, the Officer will be the lead on project coordination and implementation.
