Women for Afghan Women (WAW), Multi Location
United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), Departments of Refugees and Repatriation (DoRR) and Women for Afghan Women (WAW) offices are jointly engaged in different protection related activities addressing concerns, risks and needs affecting different groups especially displaced civilians, refugees’ returnees and host communities. Considering the above and the cultural context, having access to displaced and returnee women and girls must be in a way that respects cultural values and protection principles as confidentiality and meanwhile enable the rights holders to share their concerns openly and in a comfortable manner. In order to address this gap, it is necessary to take into count the important function and role of female staff in all the organizations including DoRR which significantly lacks female workforce in all the provinces.
WAW is recruiting motivated and qualified staff for the 12 month UNHCR funded project “Protection Monitoring of internally displaced persons, Refugee Returnees and other persons of concern to UNHCR in the North and North East Regions”.
The incumbent will be part of the protection monitoring team that conducts systematic monitoring of the protection concerns of conflict induced internally displaced persons (IDPs) and refugee returnees.
Protection concerns (i.e., rights violations, discrimination, and exclusion) will be monitored and documented under the project. These activities will lead to: 1) an increased understanding of the protective environment, including essential demographic data, vulnerability mapping, available services, and existing gaps impacting the displaced and returnee communities, and 2) sharable reports detailing needed actions by all actors (humanitarian community and government) to address protection concerns/gaps and contribute to identify community based protection assessment (CBPA) projects aimed at mitigating protection risks and support the (re)integration of displaced and returnee communities.
