Project description

Live and Learn Tonga (LLT) has requested the support of a Peace Corps Response Volunteer (PCRV) to serve as a Policy and Strategic Planning Specialist. LLT is currently engaging several calls for proposals for potential projects in the WASH and food security space, and LTT has identified a need for improvement in the management of the office operations, including the overall management of the current projects.
