[Offre en Anglais] Save the Children International recuits Humanitarian Representative (Tunis) Retour vers les opportunités

Context: 

A number of International NGOs and UN Agencies use Tunisia as a base from which to support humanitarian work in Libya. Save the Children International registered with the Government of Tunisia in 2017 to provide a base to supporting limited programming in Libya. While SCI does not intend to programme inside Libya, it is recognized that it is enduring a humanitarian crisis for significant number of Libyans as well as non-Libyans migrants. It continues to be a primary route for African migrants from sub-Saharan Africa seeking opportunities in Europe. Fighting in Libya, since 2014, has directly affected 1.6 million people. UNICEF’s most recent needs analysis indicates that 1.1 million people out of a population of 6.5 million require life-saving humanitarian assistance and protection. Of these 378,000 are children and 307,000 are women of reproductive age (15-49).

Save the Children has been approached by key UN agencies to coordinate, support and provide child protection best practice technical assistance to agencies programming in Libya. In addition, through the Migration and Displacement Initiative (MDI), Save the Children is also keen to look at opportunities to lead a north Africa regional diagnosis on migration focusing on children as well as consider trans-regional opportunities for potential programme work.
