The assignment regards the project "Fishing Plan for a coastal village", which will be conducted by MDF. The primary goal of this project is to enhance the capacity of the indigenous communities situated within the Kamiali Wildlife Reserve Land.
MDF has a track record of supporting and advancing initiatives for rural communities. In this context, their focus is on the local communities within the Salamaua LLG (Local Level Government) in the Huon Gulf District of Papua New Guinea. This project aligns with MDF's overarching goal and mission, which is to foster the development of rural communities in PNG, making a substantial contribution towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
The business plan, which the online volunteers will contribute to, will serve as a comprehensive roadmap for the organisation which will be developing the Fishing Plan offering guidance on efficient management of resources throughout the project.
We are seeking the support of three online volunteers who are able to provide support in developing a financial part of a business plan for a project regarding a Fishing Plan for a coastal village in Kamiali Wildlife Management Area - a project implemented by MDF.
Specifically, we require support to include cash flow plans, monthly income predictions, revenue targets, financial targets and other critical financial aspects needed in the business plan.
The tasks will be split among the selected online volunteers. The online volunteers will be collaborating with the contact person from MDF which will involve regular communication with the MDF team and with other volunteers.
The tasks will be split among 3 online volunteers: 1) Draw up the plan 2) Research similar plans used by other organisations 3) Provide advice and recommendations All 3 online volunteers will contribute to and edit the business plan.
The assignment will require about 10 hours/week from each volunteer.
Online Volunteers involved in the project will receive certificates through the UNV platform.
