ABOUT DDG/DRC

Danish Demining Group (DDG) is widely recognised as provider of efficient and community-oriented solutions to human security problems caused by landmines and other explosive remnants of war as well as small arms and light weapons.

DDG is part of DRC (Danish Refugee Council), founded in Denmark in 1956, and which is Denmark’s largest and the world’s leading non-profit, independent, rights-based refugee organization.

Our vision is to assist refugees, internally displaced people and their host communities to a dignified life. We protect lives and human rights and empower beneficiaries throughout conflict displacement by providing shelter, food, and hope in terms of work, education and integration towards a sustainable future.

Overall purpose of the role:

Danish Refugee Council (DRC) is an international non-governmental organization, which promotes and supports durable solutions to the problems faced by vulnerable people affected by conflict and instability all over the world. Danish Demining Group (DDG) is a specialized unit within DRC that focuses on community safety programming. DDG strives to identify safety and security needs from the perspective of those living in conflict areas and to help them find non-violent solutions. These go beyond traditional mine action activities to include violence reduction, programming that specifically seeks to engage communities in addressing root causes of conflict and local safety and security challenges.

DRC/DDG has been working in the region in Libya and Tunisia since 2011. DDG has been present in Tunisia since 2014 working on enhancing community security and resilience in the border towns of Dehiba and Ben Guerdane. In 2016, DDG built on this engagement to develop a cross-border programme between southern Tunisia and border towns in western Libya (Zuwara, Wazin and Nalut).  The aim is to continue working on community safety and resilience by implementing community dialogue, conflict prevention and management activities as well with the aim of building relations and cross-border initiatives.
