Emergency Specialist (Resilience Coordinator), (P-3), TA (9 months), #138150, Niamey - Niger, WCAR

In Niger, the combined effects of climate disruptions (droughts, floods), recurrent food and nutrition crises, insecurity in border areas (Tillabéri, Diffa, Tahoua, Maradi), and weak state presence in certain zones have led to a progressive deterioration of livelihoods. Health, water, education, and child protection systems are all severely affected, limiting children's access to essential social services and deepening their vulnerability.The primary objective is to provide technical support to the Country Office, programme sections, and partners (government, civil society, technical and financial partners) in the conceptualization, contextualization, strategic planning, implementation, monitoring, research and evaluation of resilience programming.Specifically, the Resilience Coordinator will dedicate a substantial amount of time to supporting the Deputy Representative Programmes to coordinate UNICEF's contributions to the large scale, ambitious, resiliencepartnership between BMZ, GIZ, UNICEF and WFP. The work will go beyond strengthening the capacity to "bounce back" from disruptions, addressing the complexity of human and community systems, their potential to adapt and persist through changing circumstances, and the implications for children's rights and well-being.
