Finance Officer / Field Assistant
Full time
ssociation for Social Transformation and Humanitarians Assistance (ASTHA Nepal), was established on 1996 with the objective to contribute to the socioeconomic transformation of the country for the upliftment of living standard of rural people by enhancing their awareness on socio-economic, cultural and environmental issues through various development programs related to awareness raising, entrepreneurship development, community infrastructure development, environment protection, skill development and sustainable development of natural systems. The rationale behind the inception of ASTHA is the realization that the problems of poverty and rural backwardness cannot be addressed through efforts of the government alone and complementary programs and initiatives should come from the non-governmental sector as well. The basic purpose of ASTHA, therefore, is to work with the poor, Dalits, indigenous, and disadvantaged people, and their organizations/groups at the grassroots level as a mechanism for enhancing their capacity for rural development.
We are recruiting young, energetic, highly motivated candidates for implementing the Transforming the Cookstove Market in Nepal project which is funded by Livelihoods Venture and Partnership with Practical Action Nepal and implemented by ASTHA Nepal. This Project is going to be implemented in 4 districts of Sudurpashim province of Nepal namely Achham, Doti, Dadeldhura, and Baitadi.
