Resilience 4 Peace (R4P) Governance Lead

IRC had a brief presence in south-west Côte d’Ivoire in the late 1990s to respond to the needs of Liberian refugees. It then re-opened its office in Abidjan in 2003 to respond to the humanitarian needs of IDPs brought about by the civil conflict, as well as to address a new wave of Liberian refugees. Currently, IRC conducts programming in the field sites of Man, Korhogo and Yamoussoukro, as well as in its Abidjan HQ office in the following Sectors: Gender Based Violence, Health, Child & Youth Protection & Development (CYPD), Economic Recovery and Development, reaching approximately 2 million beneficiaries.

The goal of IRC Côte d’Ivoire is to consolidate its post conflict development program through increased partnerships and advocacy aiming to achieve quality, impact and sustainability. The IRC in Côte d’Ivoire also aims to prevent or reduce the impact of new threats to the Ivoirian population, such as violent extremism in the Northern regions of the country.

SCOPE OF WORK
The IRC is looking for a Governance Lead for a USAID-funded project for which a proposal will be submitted. This position is thus contingent on the IRC being awarded funding and is anticipated to begin in November 30, 2020. The aim of the R4P program will be to strengthen Resilience and Learning to Countering Violent Extremism in Côte d’Ivoire Northern Border Areas. The Activity will focus on preventing the spill-over of Violent Extremism (VE) from the Sahel into Côte d’Ivoire’s northern border areas. In close coordination with other R4P technical leads, the Governance Lead will have the overall responsibility for the implementation of the governance activities of the project.

This position is based in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, and will require frequent travel to field offices.

•Contribute to the development of field staff through training, mentoring, and assisting with professional advancement.
