The Network Development Learning Advisor role is critical in ensuring that learning, reflection and adaptation guides the Start Network’s efforts to become a decentralised and locally led network. The Start Network aims to shift from a centralised network model to a dispersed ‘network of networks’. In this vision, regional or country-based hubs predominantly made up of local and national organisations will lead responses and drive innovations that will foster a better and more locally led humanitarian system.  This is a critical moment for the development of the hubs as the first cohort of five hubs moves to maturity.   

The goal of the Learning Advisor is to support the incorporation of strategic reflection, learning and evidence within the Start Network’s work to achieve its vision of being a locally led network of networks. 

The Learning Advisor will advise and facilitate learning across hubs and Start Network to embed learning and reflection across strategic and operational aspects of this Network transformation. The Learning Advisor will support the Network Development team to learn and iterate its approach to incubating and engaging with hubs. At this pivotal moment in hub development, the Learning Advisor will support the incorporation of learning and evidence into adaptions to the hub model.
