Recruitment: Directorate of Technical Aid Corpsrecruiting

Directorate of Technical Aid Corps recruiting......

Directorate of Technical Aid Corps, Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Abuja, invites applications from suitably qualified Nigerians for the recruitment into the Nigerian Aid Corps Scheme for the 2013 – 2015 Biennium.

The Technical Aid Corps (TAC) scheme is a viable volunteer programme operated by an African country across ACP countries. From independence, aid and technical assistance have been at the core of Nigeria’s foreign policy objectives.

TAC began in 1987 to complement direct financial aid from Nigeria to ACP countries through skills exchange towards strengthening international understanding and cooperation.

The Federal Government of Nigeria in 1987 established the Nigerian Technical Aid Corps (TAC) scheme as a foreign policy tool that would serve specific national interests.

The statute establishing the scheme – Decree 27 – was

signed into a law on 22 January 1993 and officially documented on 5 May 1993, thus giving it a legal backing and framework.

As an instrument of Nigeria’s foreign policy, the TAC programme is an alternative to direct financial aid for

African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) nations. It is designed, not only to provide manpower assistance in all fields of

human endeavour, but to also represent a practical demonstration of South-South cooperation. (South-South

refers to underdeveloped and developing countries in the southern hemisphere).

OBJECTIVES:

Key objectives of the scheme are:

Sharing Nigeria’s know-how and expertise with other ACP countries

Giving assistance on the basis of assessed and perceived

needs of recipient countries

Promoting cooperation and understanding between Nigeria

and recipient countries

Facilitating meaningful contact between youths of Nigeria

and those of recipient countries

Complementing other forms of assistance to ACP countries.

Ensuring a streamlined programme of assistance to other

developing countries

Acting as a channel through which South-South

collaboration is enhanced

Establishing a presence in countries which, for economic

reasons, Nigeria has no resident diplomatic mission.
