NGO engaging local communities to conserve national park

Accommodation provided

Kibale, Uganda

4-8 weeks

Our partner aims to engage local communities and Ugandan youth to conserve the national park and other wild environments. They have a broad range of programmes – ranging from conservation and sustainable energy, and education and literacy.

You will start by reviewing their progress and then you'll be providing further training as needed. The 2018 audit highlighted gaps in the supporting evidence and gave a list of recommendations for improvements. They would now like support to review their current system, procedures and controls to make sure they are meeting compliance and best practice. Your training will focus on their use of QuickBooks and audit preparation. They have also requested support with budget creation, improving reporting and generating better annual financial reports.
