aDryada designs and implements large-scale nature restoration projects (reforestation, afforestation, mangrove and wetland restoration, etc.) covering several tens of thousands of hectares. These projects are built on three equally important pillars: climate, biodiversity, and improving the living conditions of local communities. Primarily deployed in tropical regions, these initiatives generate high-quality carbon credits.
aDryada is also the co-founder of the Organization for Biodiversity Certificates (OBC. www.obiocert.org). This association, which gathers more than 30 members around the world, is building a certification system that aims to better value nature-based and biodiversity-enhancing projects. OBC launched its first pilot countries in 2025, in both temperate and tropical zones. It is to generate the fisrt certificates in 2027.

YOUR MISSIONS AND MAIN ACTIVITIES
1 – Support the creation and first deployments of the OBC certification system
Creating a new certification system is a project in which various stakeholders are involved (OBC members, external technical experts, scientists, etc.). The intern will contribute to it by:
· Draft the methodology’s first technical documents, in collaboration with OBC’s Bureau, members developing projects and the Ecocert Group/Transitions (Partners of OBC)
· Ensure that all project components (technical groups, certification work, forest and agriculture projects supporting the national pilots etc.) are progressing according to schedule
2 - Support the deployment of biodiversity certificates in countries where aDryada operates
aDryada aims to deploy OBC biodiversity certificates in the countries where it operates, in collaboration with other local actors. In this context, the intern will contribute to deployment by:
· Supporting the definition of the OBC biodiversity plan for aDryada’s projects, in collaboration with the team.
· Gathering data (regulations, stakeholders, etc.) from host countries and other OBC members involved in deployment to prepare a country-level deployment proposal, in collaboration with other OBC members.
· Drafting relevant documents to support the overall deployment of the plan (analyses, presentations for authorities, etc.).
3. Support the day-to-day management of OBC
The intern will contribute to the day-to-day operations of the association by:
· Preparing and co-facilitating association meetings, certain technical groups, and country groups (market pilot deployment) and drafting minutes
- Drafting LinkedIn posts in close coordination with another member’s communication officer.
