About the Role
Urban Impact Lab is seeking a proactive Research Assistant to support a large-scale INGO-funded primary healthcare service delivery project across two provinces. This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career researcher to gain hands-on experience in development sector research while working on a high-impact international project.
