International Child Protection in Emergency Specialist

VACANCY ANNOUNCEMENT EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES IN PLAN INTERNATIONAL, RWANDA


Founded over 75 years ago, Plan is one of the oldest and largest children’s development organizations in the world. We work in 50 developing countries across Africa, Asia and the Americas to promote child rights and lift millions of children out of poverty. Plan is independent, with no religious, political or governmental affiliations.
Plan International has been working in Rwanda since 2007 with a major focus on four country programs: Right to Access Quality and Inclusive Education, Right to Early Childhood Care and Development through United Communities, Right to Youth Economic Security through Active Citizenship and Right to Protection. Plan currently operates in Gatsibo, Kayonza, Rwamagana, Bugesera and Nyaruguru. Plan International Rwanda has recently entered into partnership with UNHCR as partner implementing Sexual & Gender Based Violence Responses and Child protection in all Refugees Camps across the country.
Plan has a strict child protection policy and guidelines that all staff must follow at all times. All staff are expected to help ensure all Plan associates know, understand and follow these and take an active role in the protection of all children from abuse and exploitation.
To facilitate the implementation of its activities, Plan International Rwanda is inviting applicants from suitably qualified locally based Internationals and/or Rwandan nationals with international experience to fill the following vacant position:
Position: International Child Protection in Emergency Specialist
Type of appointment: Full time Consultancy
Duty Station: Mahama Refugees Camp
Deadline for applications: 14th June 2016
Job summary
In May 2014, Plan International Rwanda entered into a partnership with UNHCR and MIDIMAR to provide child protection and SGBV protection response and prevention services in all five refugees camps in Rwanda and for urban refugees in Kigali. At the end of March 2015, Burundians began crossing the border into Rwanda to seek asylum from harassment and threats due to the upcoming presidential elections. In response, the Government of Rwanda allocated two sites to host the refugees and in partnership with UNHCR asked implementing partners to support the emergency response. Plan International Rwanda deployed staff to the two reception centres and Mahama camp in addition to the 5 old camps.
Plan International secured quite a number of Grant funded projects (with UNICEF, UN Women, WFP, SNO, UKNO...) and recently an agreement with UNHCR to continue the operation for 2016.
There are now a total of 140,000 Congolese and Burundian refugees in Rwanda. Recently new partners have been introduced to provide support to refugees such as Save the Children, Legal Aid Forum and Handicap International to support the protection and SGBV activities.

While Plan has Child Protection Coordinator and Officers, SGBV Coordinator and officers and Community Engagement Coordinator and Officers in place to support interventions for more than one year, most are in need further coaching on case management, capacity building, and technical support in developing and implementing a social and behaviour change strategy for prevention of child protection incidents.
