Are you interested in working on a
global multi-stakeholder project in sustainable agriculture? Or do you know
someone who is?

Assistant Project Coordinator - Better Cotton
Initiative

To respond to the impacts
of cotton cultivation the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) has been established.
BCI aims to promote measurable improvements in the key environmental and social
impacts of cotton cultivation worldwide to make it more sustainable
(economically, environmentally, and socially).

'Better Cotton' is being
defined through a collaborative multi-stakeholder approach that leverages the
commitment of global buyers of cotton and/or cotton products to demand large and
increasing amounts of 'Better Cotton'. Leading participants in the BCI Steering
Committee (SC) are adidas, Gap Inc., H&M, ICCO, IKEA, Organic Exchange, Pesticide Action Network
UK, United Nations Environment Programme and WWF.

If you are interested please take a look at the attached job
advertisement, or online at www.bettercotton.org - or forward on as you
wish.

Closing date for applications is Friday 1 February 2008..
