IUWASH USAID Job Vacancy: Close Down IT Specialist, based in Jakarta

The Indonesia Urban Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (IUWASH) project is a sixty-month program funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented under the leadership of DAI. IUWASH works with government, the private sector, NGOs, community groups and other stakeholders to improve access to safe water supply and sanitation in Indonesia’s urban areas. The overall goal of IUWASH is to assist the Government of Indonesia (GoI) in making significant progress in achieving its safe water and sanitation Millennium Development Goals (MDG) targets by expanding access to these services.
The expected results to be achieved are: 2 million people in urban areas gain access to improved water supply; 250,000 people in urban areas gain access to improved sanitation facilities; and the per unit water cost paid by the low income communities in targeted areas decreases by at least 20%.

  1. Mobilizing demand for water supply and sanitation service delivery; 
  2. Improving and expanding capacity for water and sanitation service delivery; and
