**W**orld Agroforestry Centre - Vietnam Office**

**Market and Value-Chain Researcher**

**About our organization**

The World Agroforestry Centre (also known as the International Centre for Research in Agroforestry or ICRAF) is an independent research institution which generates science-based knowledge about the complex role which trees play in agricultural landscapes and rural livelihoods. As part of the Centre’s work to bring tree-based solutions to bear on poverty and environmental problems, researchers - working in close collaboration with partners - are developing new technologies, tools and policy recommendations for increased food security and ecosystem health.

The Centre’s headquarters are located in Nairobi, Kenya, and research is conducted in 34 countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America. We are supported by the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) and receive funding from over 50 different donors.

**Project or Program and duration of same**:
The V-SCOPE project, funded by the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR), and implemented by a consortium of international and national research organizations in period of 2021-2025. The V-SCOPE will endeavor to support these companies in designing, optimizing and implementing local interventions - such as improved provision of recommended fertilizers or improved capacity to manage sustainable standards (Rainforest alliance, 4C...) - with strong potential to benefit small-scale farmers. Our aim is to collectively identify and address gaps in the current companies’ sustainability programs and business activities in targeted areas for piloted groups of farmers using participatory methods to work together with the different stakeholders engaged in these programs and trade activities. Participatory methods will serve in particular to help reconcile value chain stakeholders’ visions and make them converge towards more resilient and inclusive value chains.

The project "Partnering with trading companies to sustainably enhance smallholders’ livelihood in the Central Highlands of Vietnam through pilot chain interventions towards high-quality Robusta coffee" is an add-on to the V-SCOPE project and funded by ACIAR (2023-2025). This add-on project intends to test pathways to improve the current low profile coffee towards high-quality product segments through co-design and co-investment with coffee companies, and to derive and share innovative learnings from these.

**The Position**

The position of value-chain and agribusiness researcher is created to conduct research in a multi-disciplinary team composed of national and international experts, working at different scales from laboratory and farm to value chain and landscape levels under the ACIAR funded coffee and pepper research in the Central Highlands of Vietnam (V-SCOPE project; 2021-2025); and notably to coordinate and monitor the implementation of innovative pilots co-designed with coffee private companies and cooperatives to test high quality Robusta upgrading potential and improved input service provision in Central Highlands.

The post holder will be based in Hanoi, with frequent travels to project sites, working in particular with the private sector, coffee cooperatives and coffee and pepper farmers with the V-SCOPE project.
