PATH is a global nonprofit dedicated to achieving health equity. With more than 40 years of experience forging multisector partnerships, and with expertise in science, economics, technology, advocacy, and dozens of other specialties, PATH develops and scales up innovative solutions to the world’s most pressing health challenges.
Launched in 2016 by UNICEF and the World Bank Group, the Early Childhood Action Network (ECDAN) is a global network that connects, gathers, disseminates, and advocates for cross sector solutions to improve the overall wellbeing of young children and families, so that every young child is safe, well-nourished, healthy, happy and learning.
Since its inception in 2016, hundreds of members of the early childhood development (ECD) community have contributed recommendations for the type of network needed by the ECD community to advance the goals of its agenda — moving from science to scale and accelerating progress towards achieving the relevant Sustainable Development Goals for early childhood development. ECDAN is currently hosted by PATH.
On behalf of ECDAN, PATH is currently recruiting an experienced, resourceful and energetic Sr. Communications Officer to support ECDAN to advocate, facilitate learning and facilitate knowledge exchange and to tell its story more broadly, and convey the impact of ECDAN’s work externally.
The Sr. Communications Officer is an integral member of ECDAN team who will work with its global team members to create and implement ECDAN’s communications strategy and workplan for primarily an external audience including our partners.
