World Accord is inviting applications for Board Director positions, offering an initial three-year term to qualified candidates from across Canada. The organization seeks to embody diversity, equity, and inclusion within its governance board. With over 40 years of engagement in international development projects, World Accord's efforts span across Central America, Asia, and Africa, focusing on sustainable agriculture, climate adaptation, gender equality, and the empowerment of women and girls. Board Directors are expected to commit to the organization's vision, participate actively in meetings, contribute to committee work, and engage in respectful communication and collaboration with staff and other board members. The role involves governance, strategic planning, oversight of programs abroad, and understanding partner relationships. Directors should be prepared to attend two weekend board meetings annually, with additional meetings as required, and engage in committee work and organizational events. Prospective Board Directors should have expertise in areas such as policy and governance, human resources, community engagement, strategic planning, finance, marketing, social media, fundraising, agriculture, risk management, international development, gender equity, climate change, and the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Fluency in Spanish or French, and previous NGO Board experience, are advantageous but not mandatory. Candidates interested in joining World Accord's mission are encouraged to submit their resume and two professional references to Board.Recruitment@worldaccord.org.
