Natural-Justice recherche un consultant national pour le scoping des nouvelles zones et des diverses parties prenantes et les initiatives au Nigeria, H/F, Nigeria
Description :
Natural Justice is an organisation rooted in the struggles of communities in Africa. As a team of pioneering lawyers and legal experts, we specialise in human rights and environmental law in pursuit of social and environmental justice.
Natural Justice strives to enhance the collective rights of people and protect the sacred relationships that indigenous peoples and local communities have with nature. Our work is informed by the values, knowledge and self-determination of the communities whom we stand in solidarity with. Through legal empowerment, research, policy influencing and litigation, and as part of coalitions and campaigns, we support communities to know the law, use the law and shape the law. Natural Justice has three main pillars: Affirming and Securing Rights to Lands, Resources and Knowledge; Defending Rights against Environmental and Social Impacts; and Standing with Communities.

NJ, in the framework of the implementation of the Dutch POWER OF VOICE Programme, in partnership with other civil society organisations including PACJA, Oxfam Novib, FEMNET and AYC, has been awarded a grant to implement the African Activists for Climate Justice (AACJ) project which covers 8 countries across the African continent. The project has five components, three of which focus on strengthening the human rights framework, particularly environmental and related rights.
Also within the framework of the implementation of the project, it is planned to extend the activities of Natural Justice to Nigeria. To this end, for a better intervention, it is imperative to have a good knowledge of the country as well as a good analysis of the various stakeholders and the initiatives in progress in order to avoid on the one hand a duplication of interventions and on the other hand to see the possible synergies with other organizations already active.
It is in this context that NJ is launching this call for proposals to recruit a consultant or a group of consultants to conduct the scoping mission.
