Arannayk Foundation (AF) is one of the leading nature conservation organizations in Bangladesh, established by the Government of Bangladesh and the United States of America in 2003 to support biodiversity conservation, sustainable forest management, climate resilience, and community-based natural resource management. Under a new project titled "Cultivating Change in a Warming World" (a multi-country partnership with Oxfam), AF is expanding its operations in climate-vulnerable landscapes to address interconnected challenges of climate change, food insecurity, and livelihood vulnerabilities.

The program focuses heavily on rural women, smallholder farmers, and climate-vulnerable groups, establishing FLOW3R Labs (Farmers’ Lab of Wisdom for Restoration, Rights & Resilience) as community platforms for agroecology, local climate adaptation planning, and community seed systems. By integrating scientific approaches with indigenous knowledge and women-led market value chains, the project aims to build resilient, gender-just food and economic systems that empower grassroots communities to lead climate action.

To enhance institutional strength and sustainability, AF is looking for a Program Officer (Sustainable Agriculture and Livelihoods) to manage and scale its core sustainable agriculture and climate-smart livelihoods portfolio. This pivotal position will support project implementation, innovative programming, and monitoring and evaluation to deepen the Foundation’s grassroots impact and reinforce its legacy as a leader in climate-resilient solutions.
