NGO PRESENTATION

Handicap International is an independent and impartial international aid organisation working in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflict and disaster. Working alongside persons with disabilities and other vulnerable groups, our action and testimony are focused on responding to their essential needs, improving their living conditions and promoting respect for their dignity and their fundamental rights.

Provide an adequate response to major natural disaster and conflict situations, anywhere in the world as much as possible within 72 hours; ? Provide assistance to vulnerable groups (refugees, IDPs, persons with injuries, elders, children, etc.) affected by a crisis and maximize the number of beneficiaries. Within vulnerable groups, target especially PwD and meet their specific needs; ? Constantly monitor chronic crises and/or conflicts to ensure preparedness for and rapid response to eventual emerging needs.

JOB CONTEXT

A critical humanitarian situationIn January 2014, after more than 1000 days of conflict, the death toll in Syria is estimated to have reached 130,000 persons . According to the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), around 9.3 million people, nearly half the population, are in need of humanitarian assistance, with among them more than 6,5 internally displaced persons (IDPs) and 2,3 million refugees in neighboring countries.Moreover, amongst those victims of the conflict, an estimation of 8% (figures average from the UNHCR for refugees in neighboring countries, excluding elders – if inclusion of Syrian IDPs and elderly, estimation would likely rise to between 15% and 20%) of them would be in an alarming situation of vulnerability, in terms of protection, access to basic services and in terms of coverage of their specific needs. Persons with mental or physical disabilities and/or chronic diseases, elders, children head of households are in a critical situation, experiencing difficulties to access to already scare humanitarian resources.The situation of injured is also at stake. For those of them having benefited from emergency health care in Syria or host countries, facing the unavailability or lack of access to post-surgery services is likely to have a devastating impact on the prevention of further impairments, or to adapt to a new and challenging environment.

Summary of Mission Handicap International: Syrian CrisisAfter a first round of assessment on March 2012, HI emergency department is implementing since May 15th an emergency intervention for the most vulnerable people affected by the Syrian crisis in Jordan and Lebanon, funded by ECHO, CIDA and DFID, and aiming at supporting persons with injuries and other vulnerable groups (including persons with disabilities). HI is until now the only organization to address those issues through community outreach, and benefits from the trust of both communities’ representatives, local stakeholders and other field implementing organizations.Since December 2012, HI is implanting rehabilitation project in North Syria. Simultaneously, after a technical assessment in Jordan and a rapprochement with ERW (Explosive Remnants of War) management authorities, the National Committee for Demining and Rehabilitation (NCDR), HI decided to launch a first risk education project addressing both Syrian refugees and local host populations living at the Syrian border.

PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES

Activities in Syria The violence in Syria has caused the death of more than 100,000 people and more than 6 million Syrians fled their homes. Syria has become "a disgraceful humanitarian calamity with suffering and displacement unparalleled in recent history”.

1.The needsPost-surgery follow-up is almost non-existent. Accurate data is lacking, however, the number of injured people in Syria is estimated to exceed 600,000.

Psychosocial distress: MHPSS is almost unaddressed until now. Basic needs coverage: Limited resources coupled with the challenging operational context jeopardize the adequate coverage of basic needs of conflict-affected populations inside Syria. Food is the 1st need of the 6.8 people in need in all Syrian governorates. Household Essential Items are unaffordable.Conventional weapons risk awareness: populations – notably children - are facing the threat of unexploded remnants of war. HI estimates that 10% to 15% of cluster munitions used by both sides of the conflict are yet unexploded. Urban settings are generally the most affected. Capacity building of the Syrian Civil Society Organizations (SCSOs): After more than two years operating on the field, some of the SCSOs developed significant operational capabilities or potential but they still request training and expertise download when approaching HI.

Security Advisor£Competitive + Excellent Benefits
Beirut, Lebanon

The conflict in Syria has resulted in what is now a regional humanitarian crisis. Over 2 million refugees have now fled violence in Syria, mostly to neighbouring countries, and are in desperate need of shelter, food and water. Within Syria, more than 6.8 million people need of humanitarian assistance. Oxfam's response has already helped over 200,000 people and we are aiming to reach up over 650,000 people in Syria, Jordan and Lebanon in the next year. Right now, we’re looking for more committed professionals to aid our humanitarian efforts.

The roleOur response is focused on the three countries with the largest populations of displaced people: Syria, Lebanon and Jordan. As the security situation is precarious, we must ensure that our security management systems meet the risks we may encounter. To do that, you’ll support senior managers, field and office staff, and our partner organisations, in effectively mitigating potential security threats. While you will be based in Beirut, you will provide support and analysis to all three countries, travelling regularly to address the situation on the ground. The information sources you will be drawing on are diverse, ranging from academic research to local data, so you will need to test its credibility and advise senior managers accordingly. In the process, you will network with UN agencies, INGOs, civil society organisations, and government officials and have a real impact on the crisis.

What we’re looking forTo meet the challenges of this role, you’ll need a proven track record of security assessment, planning and implementation for humanitarian operations in insecure areas. You will have excellent negotiation and analytical skills – including context mapping and analysis – which will prove vital in this role. While you don’t need to be able to speak Arabic, it would be an advantage. And in the current situation, you’ll need to be willing to travel to all areas of the region at short notice, and sometimes in difficult circumstances. Oxfam especially would like to hear from women with a strong security advisory background, to join our team.

About OxfamA simple, inescapable truth underlines everything we do at Oxfam. There’s enough wealth in this world to go around. It’s not unfortunate that people live in poverty. It’s unjustifiable. It’s not just their problem. It’s ours too. And with the right support, we can beat poverty and injustice. Thousands of people already commit their time and talents to our campaigning, humanitarian and long-term development projects. Now we’re looking for yours.

Contexte du poste

La Croix Rouge française engage des opérations pour assister les réfugiés syriens qui fuient le conflit affectant leur pays depuis plus de 2 ans. Ils sont aujourd’hui plus d’1,8 millions à avoir traversé les frontières des pays voisins, vivant dans des camps ou dans des communautés hôtes. Les besoins humanitaires impliqués par l’ampleur de cette crise sont conséquents et appellent une réponse croissante. Aux côtés de ses Sociétés Nationales sœurs, la CRf va donc intervenir pour contribuer à cette réponse et assister les populations réfugiées particulièrement vulnérables. Cette intervention concernera le Liban, la Jordanie et l’Irak (région du Kurdistan) et ciblera les secteurs de la santé, de l’eau et de l’assainissement ainsi que de la distribution. Le dimensionnement régional de cette opération et son articulation avec les activités menées par ses partenaires des Croix Rouge Autrichienne, Néerlandaise, Danoise et Belge amènent la CRf à recruter des équipes pour chacun des 3 pays mais aussi une délégation régionale.

Le Liban accueille près de 700.000 réfugiés syriens, la majorité d’entre eux dans la Vallée de la Bekaa. S’il n’existe pas officiellement de camps, les réfugiés syriens vivent soit dans des camps informels (Informal Tented Settlements), soit en ville (location d’appartements, de garages, squat dans des immeubles en construction). La mission d’évaluation menée du 18/07 au 15/08 a confirmé l’opportunité d’intervenir sur les secteurs de l’eau et de l’assainissement et de la distribution (à l’approche de l’hiver) dans la vallée de la Bekaa, aux côtés de la Croix Rouge Libanaise (CRL). Reconnue pour ses interventions dans les urgences médicales (EMS), la CRL s’engage dans la création d’une Disaster Management Unit, qui comprendrait notamment un volet Eau et Assainissement ainsi qu’un volet Distribution. La CRf prendra directement en charge les activités Eau et Assainissement de l’opération (budget d’environ 2.3 M€) et les activités de Cash Transfer Programming (2.1 M€) les activités Distribution (3.6 M€) étant menées par le « sous – consortium » Distribution (CR Danoise, Hollandaise, Belge et Italienne). Au total 40.000 réfugiés seront ciblés par l’opération.
