ACTED a démarré ses interventions humanitaires en République centrafricaine en décembre 2007 avec un premier projet de réhabilitation de routes pour désenclaver les zones isolées. Alors que la stabilisation se poursuit dans le Nord-Ouest de la RCA, le Sud-Est a vu sa situation humanitaire se dégrader, à cause notamment d’incursions des forces de la LRA, avec une croissance exponentielle du nombre de déplacés et de réfugiés. Depuis 2008 et la signature des accords de paix, ACTED est engagée dans le soutien au relèvement rapide du pays. ACTED se concentre principalement sur la redynamisation économique, la réhabilitation de routes visant à faciliter l’accès humanitaire et les réponses rapides aux mouvements de population. Aujourd’hui, ACTED assure le lien entre l’urgence, la réhabilitation et le développement, avec des interventions au Nord-Ouest et au Sud-Est du pays, et avec une nouvelle zone d’intervention au Sud-Ouest.En 2011, ACTED assurera le lien entre l’urgence, la réhabilitation et le développement, l’ONG maintenant ses interventions au Nord-Ouest et au Sud-Est du pays, et ouvrant une nouvelle zone d’intervention au Sud-Ouest. Ainsi, l’Ouest du pays verra la mise en oeuvre de programmes de développement en infrastructures agricoles, commerciales et éducatives notamment. Au Sud-Est, ACTED travaillera à l’autonomisation et au relèvement précoce progressif des populations déplacées, réfugiées et hôtes, en soutenant entre autres la mise en oeuvre d’interventions de sécurité alimentaire de moyen terme. En parallèle, ACTED consolidera son plaidoyer humanitaire, notamment pour la promotion d’une intervention multisectorielle intégrée visant la redynamisation des filières (agricoles et commerciales) et le développement des organisations communautaires et de la gouvernance locale participative.

Responsable du reporting – NigerALIMA

ALIMA (the Alliance For International Action) fête ses 4 ans d’existence en 2013. Depuis sa création, l’association a su se développer à la mesure de l’augmentation des besoins humanitaires médicaux, notamment au Sahel : 400 000 patients traités en 2012, nouvelle gouvernance qui intègre les partenaires locaux à tous les niveaux de décision, nouvelles approches innovantes sur les projets, mise en place et accompagnement d’une plateforme de 5 ONG partenaires locales.En 2013, Avec 5 Pays d’interventions, 17 projets en cours, et un budget de 15 millions d’€uros, ALIMA est aujourd’hui une ONG dynamique et efficace dans le déploiement de secours médicaux pour les personnes les plus vulnérables.

CONTEXTE :

Depuis Juillet 2009, ALIMA travaille en collaboration avec l’ONG médicale nigérienne BEFEN (Bien Etre de la Femme et de l’Enfant au Niger) et Médecins Sans Frontières Suisse pour gérer un programme de prise en charge de la malnutrition et du paludisme dans le district de Mirriah (800 000 habitants) dans la région de Zinder à l’est du Niger. L’appui est fait en intégration avec le ministère de la santé publique sur 17 centres de santé intégrés et au sein de la pédiatrie de l’hôpital de district d’une capacité de 100 lits. En 2010, près de 25 000 enfants sévèrement malnutris et 30 000 cas de paludisme ont été pris charge. Un volet de prise en charge simplifiée de la malnutrition aigüe modérée a été lancé en 2011 avec le Programme Alimentaire Mondiale permettant de fournir à plus de 10 000 enfants une ration d’aliments supplémentaires prêts à l’emploi pendant quatre mois. ALIMA et BEFEN ont également répondu à une épidémie de rougeole en vaccinant environ 40 000 enfants sur trois aires de santé en 2011. En quelques années BEFEN est devenu un acteur majeur parmi les ONG médicales nationales et internationales au Niger et dans la sous-région.

BEFEN/ALIMA a repris en 2012 une partie d’un projet géré par MSF Belgique, à Dakoro, depuis 2007 et incluant un volet de prise en charge pédiatrique et un volet de prise en charge de la santé maternelle. Les prévisions d’admissions sur Dakoro sur 11 mois sont de 17 400 et 2 600 hospitalisations en CRENI.LIEU DE MISSIONNiamey, NigerDESCRPITIF DE POSTE

En lien hiérarchique avec le représentant pays vous devez assurer la production de proposition de projets et de rapports réguliers pour les bailleurs de fonds et vous êtes responsable du développement d’une stratégie de communication (interne et externe) au niveau du pays. Vous êtes également en charge de la formation du partenaire local en matière de reporting et de rédaction de proposition de projet. De plus, vous devez maintenir une connaissance profonde des stratégies, activités et opportunités des bailleurs de fonds ainsi que des autres parties prenantes dans le pays.En lien technique et fonctionnel avec le responsable des relations bailleurs et partenariats au siège, vous lui envoyez les rapports, propositions de projet et fichiers de suivi qu’il valide. Vous centralisez les échanges entre le bureau de Dakar et le terrain.

1. Assurer la production de rapports réguliers, précis et analytiques
   • Comprendre et transmettre les directives des bailleurs de fonds aux équipes terrain.Pour cela, chaque contrat de financement sera lu attentivement par le reporting, et une fiche synthétique sera établie rappelant les deadlines, les règles d’éligibilité financières particulières, la flexibilité budgétaire et tout point particulier nécessaire de mentionner.
   • Etablir une liaison régulière avec les responsables de projet et le comed pour assurer la production de rapports de qualitéIl est nécessaire pour cela que le reporting ait une bonne compréhension globale des projets, qu’il suive leur évolution et les problématiques posées par la mise en œuvre opérationnelle. Il pourra ainsi formaliser par écrit dans des rapports internes ou externes l’évolution du projet.

• développer et incorporer des éléments solides de suivi et d’évaluation dans les rapports.Le reporting doit permettre de produire des rapports d’activités analytiques et détaillés. Il doit donc interroger régulièrement les équipes opérationnelles sur ce qui peut être déduit des statistiques médicales et des indicateurs de suivi des projets.

• Travailler en étroite relation avec le département Finances pour assurer une cohérence entre les rapports financiers et narratifs, et assurer un flux de trésorerie régulier basé sur la régularité et la qualité des rapports soumis. Les rapports narratifs doivent être cohérents avec les rapports financiers. Il est de la responsabilité du reporting de s’en assurer (ex : si 1 seule formation est explicitée dans le narratif, 2 formations ne peuvent pas être facturées au bailleur).Les rapports externes conditionnent très souvent l’envoi de trésorerie par le bailleur ou l’ONG porteuse, il est donc nécessaire que ces rapports soient rendus dans les temps. Un suivi du reporting comportant un chronogramme est à mettre à jour chaque mois par le reporting terrain pour envoi au siège. Le reporting terrain est chargé de rappeler les deadlines aux équipes de terrain.

• S’assurer en particulier que les modèles de reporting, les formats, la philosophie et les dates limites de chaque projet et de chaque bailleur de fonds sont communiqués clairement et adoptés partout dans le pays pour tous les nouveaux projets ainsi que pour les projets en cours.Le reporting terrain est chargé de rappeler et faire respecter les deadlines par les équipes de terrain.Le reporting terrain doit s’assurer que les formats utilisés pour les rapports ou les propositions de projets sont conformes aux exigences des bailleurs.

   • réunir les informations nécessaires à la rédaction de la proposition de projet (objectifs, résultats attendus, activités, indicateurs)Ces informations sont à récupérer lors des réunions brainstorming de préparations de nouveaux projets, auprès des RT et/ou du RP, elles permettent de construire le cadre logique et de remplir la fiche synthèse préalablement à la rédaction complète de la proposition. La lecture des stratégies bailleurs, et des groupes sectoriels peut permettre d’identifier et proposer des indicateurs intéressants.
   • rédiger la proposition en respectant le format demandé par le bailleur
   • envoyer dans les temps la proposition au responsable des relations bailleur de fonds à Dakar
   • centraliser les échanges entre le bureau opérationnel de Dakar et le terrain.Lors de la rédaction d’une proposition de projet, de nombreux échanges se font entre le siège opérationnel et le terrain : en effet la proposition est revue sous l’angle stratégique par le responsable desk, sous l’angle médical par le médecin de desk, sous l’angle financier par le responsable gestion terrain, et sous l’angle purement reporting par le chargé des relations bailleurs. Tous ces échanges sont centralisés au département reporting, et se font donc entre le responsable relations bailleurs et le reporting terrain.

2. former le partenaire local aux techniques de reporting

   • sensibiliser le partenaire local à l’importance du respect du calendrier de reporting et de la qualité de celui-ci
   • former le partenaire local sur les principes du cadre logiqueUne présentation peut être faite sur le principe du cadre logique, expliciter comment le construire, comment choisir des indicateurs SMART…-former le partenaire local sur les outils de suivi du reporting et de suivi des indicateurs

Un onglet doit permettre de suivre l’avancée des négociations avec les bailleurs par un bref résumé de chaque réunion extérieure.
   • Etre proactif sur la recherche, la synthèse et la diffusion de la bibliographie pertinente pour l’équipe Revue de presse pays, diffusion d’articles scientifiques ou d’études, revue du contexte, stratégies régionales sectorielles
4. Développer une stratégie de communication externe.
   • Définir les activités, ressources, partenariats et groupes cibles dont ALIMA a besoin, notamment en maintenant un niveau élevé d’information et en comprenant la stratégie des bailleurs de fonds et les partenariats possibles.En fonction de la stratégie pays définie dans la fiche pays, le reporting participera, avec l’appui du RP et du siège opérationnel de Dakar, à la recherche des financements complémentaires nécessaires et proposera des pistes possibles selon les stratégies des différents bailleurs présents au Tchad. Le reporting devra donc rencontrer les bailleurs présents au Tchad avec le RP, présenter les activités d’ALIMA et comprendre les opportunités possibles. Une recherche sur internet des fondations privées finançant des projets humanitaires est à effectuer et des propositions doivent être formulées au RP et au siège opérationnel de Dakar.
   • Assurer la continuité des relations publiques, mettre à jour les fiches régionales et spécifiques à chaque projet et documenter les publications dans les médias.Le reporting participe aux réunions avec les bailleurs, il fait un suivi des négociations et des opportunités qui en ressortent et l’intègre dans le suivi du reporting envoyé chaque mois.
