New Project: Developing an operations assessment toolkit








AfriKids Project (Project 2)

Develop an operations assessment toolkit that AfriKids can use to inform their new Operations Strategy.

Project:

AfriKids, an international charity supporting children’s rights in Ghana, is seeking to develop an assessment toolkit to support their Operations Strategy. 

Project description:
AfriKids is a partnership between a charity registered in England and Wales and an NGO registered in Ghana. Since 2002, they have worked together to alleviate suffering and improve life for vulnerable and disadvantaged children in northern Ghana.
AfriKids is looking to develop an Operations Strategy that will enable the smooth delivery of an ambitious strategic plan. As part of this, they require the development of an assessment toolkit that can be used to audit their current operations and compare it to best practice benchmarks in the sector. 
The project will include:
  • Reviewing an existing assessment tool and understanding AfriKids’ specific operations and scenarios.
  • Cross-referencing these insights with some benchmarking/market research to produce the new, bespoke AfriKids tool.
The volunteer will only be expected to develop the toolkit, and not run the assessment. All work will take place in the UK. 

Time commitment 3 - 5 days
LocationThe organisation is willing to work flexibly (e.g. via teleconference or video conference).  All work can be done remotely.

If you feel you are able to offer your assistance please complete the application form and return along with your CV to amy.hughes@theorsociety.com by 12th September.

Information about the organisation: 
Afrikids are a charity who work to ensure that every child in Ghana is afforded his/her rights as outlined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. They do this by building the capacity and resources of local people, organisations and initiatives in such a way that they will be able to continue their efforts independently and sustainably in the future.
