  • To achieve its mandate, RDTS leverages expertise from its pool of Fragility and Resilience experts and consultants posted in Headquarters, as well as in the various Regional Hubs and Country Offices.

Brief Description of the Assignment

  • The consultant will support the operationalization of the Bank’s 2022-26 Strategy for addressing fragility and building resilience, in the context of the West African region.
