Recommendations

Disclaimer: Open/Closed recommendations are updated semiannually.

We recommend that, as part of the project review scheduled for Fiscal Year 2020, the director for programming and training, the deputy program director, and food security program team revise site assessment forms to include specific and observable programmatic site selection criteria.

We recommend that the country director, per the post’s policy in the Volunteer handbook, not require staff members who track Volunteers’ annual leave requests to also manage Volunteer whereabouts reports at the same time.
