Background

The Economic Commission for West African States (ECOWAS), through its White Paper policy on Access to Energy Services (ASE), aims to expand access to energy services to rural and peri urban areas with a view to contributing to poverty reduction and accelerating the attainment of MDGs.

The objectives of this regional policy include the following:
* 100 % of the population have access to modern cooking fuels ;
* 60 % of rural populations have access to motive power services;
* 100 % of urban and peri urban populations and 36 % of rural populations have access to electricity, whereas 60 % the rural population benefit from basic modern services (drinking water, health, education, communication, lighting).

This regional policy is geared toward providing each member state with a framework for establishing national policies and developing programmes for access to energy services as well as mobilizing necessary resources for its implementation.

To achieve these ambitious objectives, four areas of intervention were identified based on following recommendations made by countries, namely:
* Facilitation of a national vision pertaining to access to energy services and the establishment of institutional frameworks to mainstream access considerations in national policies and strategies for poverty reduction and sustainable human development ;
* development of integrated energy programmes, based on national energy context, and aimed at poverty reduction in rural and peri urban areas,
* establishment of an Energy Access unit at the level of ECOWAS Secretariat ;
* and the creation, in the long run, of Centre for Access to Energy Services.

ECOWAS, with support from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), elaborated an approach which resulted in activities and tools that are now available for use. Further, a series of actions were undertaken leading to the emergence of national programmes for access to energy services in a number of countries in the region.
Owing to sponsorship by its technical partner (UNDP), ECOWAS benefited from support from the European Commission for the development of investment programmes in many member states in the Region. In line with recommended actions and with the view to ensuring sustainability and development of organizational capacities ECOWAS has taken steps to establish the Energy Access within the ECOWAS Division of Energy and Infrastructure The Unit will comprise three specialists working as a team under the supervision of the Director of Energy.

Post – doctoral experience strongly preferred with at least 5 years experience in agricultural extension and training, technology transfer, and development of training and dissemination materials in relation to sustainable livelihoods.
