Christian Aid to cut back staff, hopes for more efficient use of donor money.
Christian Aid is planning on cutting its staff by nearly half this year as part of what it is calling an international restructure.
The charity has downplayed the suggestion that the cuts are in response to a drop in government funding, instead saying they wish to be “more responsive and accountable to communities living in poverty”.
At present the international aid charity employs around 720 people. A report in Civil Society claimed that the planned restructure will leave Christian Aid with 400 staff members.
Christian Aid said it is consulting with its staff about their futures, with final decisions expected to be made in mid-June. Most of the job losses will be in the UK. CT.
