Description du poste

Trias strengthens entrepreneurial organizations around the world, that in turn support local entrepreneurs and farmers. Through tailored support for each partner, members get access to advice, small loans or training. This enables them to start a business or grow further. In this way, they gain more independence and generate sufficient income to give themselves, their families and their community a decent life.

To diversify resources and build strong alliances, Trias collaborates with private sector actors at local, national and international levels. At the same time, Trias is developing its general resource mobilisation strategy, focusing on traditional donors – with additional potential for engagement within our Belgian constituency.
