Expert Application Advice

What this role involves
You will support AFD’s agriculture and biodiversity projects in Ghana, focusing on field monitoring, partner coordination, and data collection. Daily tasks include visiting rural project sites, drafting progress reports, and contributing to environmental impact assessments. This VIA (Volontariat International en Administration) placement is ideal for early-career professionals seeking hands-on experience in sustainable development.

Key skills to highlight

  • Practical knowledge of agroecology, conservation agriculture, or biodiversity management in West Africa.
  • Experience with participatory rural appraisal or community-based natural resource management.
  • Proficiency in French and English (written and spoken) for reporting and stakeholder meetings.
  • Ability to use GIS tools or data analysis software for project monitoring.

Taf4All CV tip
Mention any specific Ghanaian or West African fieldwork you’ve done (e.g., “Supported cocoa agroforestry trials in Ashanti Region”) in a dedicated “Relevant Experience” section. Avoid generic phrases—use concrete metrics like “trained 50+ smallholder farmers on soil conservation.”

Before you apply
Verify the official AFD recruitment portal (https://www.afd.fr/en/recruitment) to ensure this posting is legitimate. AFD never asks for fees or bank details during applications. Cross-check the VIA program details via the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs.

🎯 Make your application ATS-ready

  • •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
  • •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
  • •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
  • •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
  • •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
  • •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
