This role offers a unique opportunity to contribute to the growth and success of Health in Harmony’s fundraising efforts, playing a pivotal role in expanding the organization’s reach and impact on a global scale.

About Health In Harmony

In a business-as-usual scenario, global temperatures will rise at least 1.5 degrees Celsius over pre-industrial averages by 2030, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Without immediate action to prevent this rise, Earth and its diverse ecosystems will face irreversible negative impacts by mid-century. 

Health In Harmony is a nonprofit organization working to reverse the deforestation of tropical rainforests as a solution to global heating. It does this by partnering with rainforest communities. Health In Harmony’s Radical Listening™ approach facilitates community-designed solutions to which it brings the necessary resources, such as primary healthcare, organic farming skills, reforestation, and small business creation.

Health In Harmony’s staff and Board reflect the world’s diversity and understand that the climate crisis is built upon colonialism and generations of systematic racism and exploitation. Health In Harmony is committed to cultivating and preserving a culture of inclusion, mutual respect, support, and connectedness. As such, people from the countries where HIH currently works (Indonesia, Madagascar, Brazil) and aims to work across the tropical bioregions will be prioritized in hiring.
