The Incumbent will directly report to the Lead Architect of the Project. Minimum qualification required: a university degree in architecture; formal training in computer aided design; minimum 3 years design experience. Experience in participatory design is an advantage.
The project provides a residency – studio and living space – in a comfortable house in Beit Sahur/Bethlehem, while the travel expenses as well as some daily living expenses would have to be covered by the volunteering architects.
