Invitation to apply to be DHN coordinator 2018

[Andrej Verity]

Dear DHN Members,

Well, that time has come again. We are looking for the next round of (awesome) DHN Coordinators.  The 2016-17 terms of reference / job description can be seen here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bm0JX5eovsCHSEXmfiDTCuwLbDF7K3QJndyHUsYzOIY/edit?usp=sharing

Please do share within your respective organization(s). We are looking for 2-4 passionate individuals. Being a coordinator can be a dynamic role and you can really make what you want of the experience.

Selection Criteria:

1. Priority is given to individuals from a DHN Member organization. Next would be an individual of a Supporting Member.  Then to those heavily engaged in the digital humanitarian community.

2. Within each of these "groups", priority would be given based on chronological order of being coordinators  (i.e. a DHN Member Org who had a coordinator in 2015 would get priority over a member org that had a coordinator in 2016)

To apply:

1. Send an email to myself, Patrick and the current coordinators  [ver...@un.org, pat...@irevolutions.org, coordi...@digitalhumanitarians.com] by 2-January.

2. Include details such as your member org, your experience, your CV and why you are interested in the role.

Timing:

1. Applications close on 2-January

2. If insufficient number of applicants, the invitation will be shared on the crisis mappers email group for 1 week.

3. Applications will be reviewed in the following 2 weeks

4. Hand-over call with the current coordinators during January.

Thanks: A special thanks to our current Coordinators - Willow and Valeria for "carrying the torch forward".

Cheers,

Andrej
