Suicide Prevention Programme Learning Partner

City Bridge Foundation is looking to engage a Learning Partner for its Suicide Prevention Funding Programme. This programme is designed to support a diverse cohort of grantees, not exclusively suicide prevention organisations, but those working with vulnerable populations at risk of suicide. The role of the Learning Partner is to facilitate collaboration and peer learning among these organisations, help them understand the connection between their work and suicide prevention, and co-create a framework to measure the impact of the funded initiatives, and the programme as a whole.

The duration of the contract is five (5) years, subject to the right of the City Corporation (at its sole discretion) to exercise its right to extend the Contract by up to two (2) years. The maximum length of the contract is therefore seven (7) years.
