Dear Colleague

 

We currently have a vacancy for a social scientist to organise and run household economic surveys to determine sources of income for villages in the buffer zone of the Cusuco National Park, Honduras (6th July to 24 August inclusive).

 

The primary objectives are to describe the economic reliance of each of the communities on revenue generated through growing shade grown coffee, plus the financial impact that establishing an enhanced price for the coffee in exchange for conservation commitments would have on each of these communities.

 

The successful applicant will additionally be responsible for supervising a small number of dissertation students specialising in aspects of these surveys. This is a voluntary post, however the costs of return flights to Honduras from the UK, plus all food and accommodation costs in country will be covered by the project.

 

To apply please send a current CV plus covering letter to [log in to unmask] by 10^th April.
