Environment Funders Canada

Program Manager

Volunteers for Biosphere Eco-Cities Canada Project Development Team 

(five positions) 

You can join a team developing proposals for sustainability projects in five Canadian cities. 

The Organization 

Biosphere Eco-Cities Canada (BECC) is a national charity coordinating and supporting the 
development of Biosphere Eco-City (BEC) initiatives in Ottawa, Toronto, Brampton, 
Edmonton, and Vancouver. A BEC initiative engages people and organizations in activities 
that integrate the needs of people and nature to create a culture of sustainability. It helps 
them to develop, implement and share their own ideas on how to address issues of 
sustainability. This brings sustainability into personal lives, communities and workplaces. 
The growing culture of sustainability in a city will inspire action for sustainability among all 
stakeholders – government, business, educational organizations, cultural groups etc. 
Ultimately, these actions will work towards resolution of global problems in areas such as 
climate, biodiversity loss, pollution, resource depletion and world food security, and 
support the resilience of the Biosphere (the Sphere of Life). 

The Task and Team 

While BECs do carry out their own projects, BECC develops national projects that involve 
several or all of the BECs in a coordinated fashion. The BECC Project Development team 
would create national project proposals and present them to the BECC board for review 
and approval. The team would liaise with the BECC Fundraising Team on resources and 
may provide ongoing advice during project implementation and evaluation. 

Key responsibilities 

 • Create or receive project outlines and turn them into project proposals 
 • Add supporting documents, such as project charters, as needed 
 • Liaise with the BECC fundraising team to line up potential project resources 
 • Refer proposals to the BECC board for authority to proceed with procurement of 

resources and implementation of projects. 

A time commitment of 3-4 hours per week is requested. 
 
If you are interested in this volunteer opportunity, please send your resume or questions to 
<a href="mailto:yann@BioEcoCity.org" target="_blank">yann@BioEcoCity.org</a>. 
 
We can arrange an online interview at a time convenient to you.
