De AEIDL (the European association for information on local development) is een Europese organisatie, gevestigd in Brussel. Ze opereert in het Engels en het Frans, daarom is deze vacature hier in het Engels overgenomen.

Werkgever

AEIDL is convinced that local initiatives, citizen involvement, social innovation and experimentation can contribute to building a Europe rich in the diversity of its landscapes, communities and cultures.

Founded in 1988 on the basis of the ELISE programme (European Local Initiatives System of Exchanges) and initially active in the field of employment, training and socio-professional integration policies, AEIDL expanded during the 1990s, particularly in the field of rural development, notably through the LEADER European Observatory which it coordinated.

Today, AEIDL's activities and field of expertise are widely diversified and mainly cover the environment and sustainable development, territorial development (rural, urban, regional, etc.), employment, social affairs and citizenship, including training and professional integration, support for small and medium-sized enterprises and social innovation. Coming from different countries, the members of the General Assembly, the Board and the staff of the Association are active in one or other of these fields. Similarly, the nature of the services provided by AEIDL, initially centred on information and network animation - information management, communication, publication, event organisation, website creation - has gradually been extended to the consultancy and evaluation as the Association's expertise has become stronger and more diversified.

Aanbod

Type of contract: Full-time, one-year renewable fixed-term contract.

We are also working on various projects and contracts where other online documentary and database tools are used.
