The International Rescue Committee (IRC) responds to the world’s worst humanitarian crises and helps people to survive and rebuild their lives. Founded in 1933 at the request of Albert Einstein, the IRC offers lifesaving care and life-changing assistance to refugees forced to flee from war or disaster. At work today in over 40 countries and 22 U.S. cities, we restore safety, dignity and hope to millions who are uprooted and struggling to endure. The IRC leads the way from harm to home.

BACKGROUNDThe IRC has been working in Myanmar since 2008 and is committed to implementing quality programming to improve the well being of the most vulnerable populations in the areas of livelihoods, water and sanitation, and health. IRC programming reflects a commitment to sustainable solutions, and believes this is achieved through participatory approaches such as community driven development, community disaster risk reduction, and capacity building of local partners. In Myanmar, as well as globally, IRC also maintains a commitment to responding to emergencies. In 2010, IRC responded to Cyclone Giri, and since has directly implemented four livelihoods restoration programmes in the Giri-affected Rakhine townships of Minbya and Myebon. These interventions have reflected the immediate and medium-term needs of the population, aimed at increasing food security and access to direct income and income generating assets. Through this work, IRC has developed a strong relationship with the local community, township authorities, and increasingly with the Rakhine State government.

SCOPEThe IRC is seeking a Project Director who will be responsible for the overall management of a $20 million LIFT-funded multi-year food security and livelihoods project, the Tat Lan Programme.
