The International Organization for Migration (IOM) - Established in 1951, IOM is the leading inter-governmental organization in the field of migration and works closely with governmental, intergovernmental and non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants.

We are recruiting to fill the position of:

Job Title: Project Officer (Protection)

Location: Maiduguri, Borno
Classification: Professional Staff, Grade P2
Type of Appointment: Special short-term graded, six months with possibility of extension
Estimated Start Date: As soon as possible

Context

  • Since the beginning of 2014, north-east Nigeria has witnessed an increase in violence perpetrated by non-State armed groups (NSAGs), causing a major humanitarian crisis. The intensification of attacks has resulted in prolonged insecurity, exacerbating the plight of vulnerable civilians, and triggering waves of forced displacement as well as the violation of human rights.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic has further aggravated the already dire living conditions and the number of people in need of humanitarian assistance in north-east Nigeria According to IOM’s DTM December 2021 report, assessments identified the following movement triggers: camp closure / government-assisted relocation in Bakasi Camp, Jere LGA of Borno State (7,785 individuals or 71%), voluntary relocation (1,493 individuals or 14%), poor living conditions (772 individuals or 7%), improved security (333 individuals or 3%), seasonal farming (281 individuals or 2%), conflicts/attacks (205 individuals or 2%) and fear of attacks (109 individuals or 1%).
  • For those displaced and affected by the crisis, the situation on the ground remains critical as the majority of them still heavily rely on humanitarian assistance.
  • These populations face grave protection risks and abuse such as exploitation, family separation, restrictions on freedom of movement and violence, including gender-based violence (GBV). Vulnerabilities are exacerbated by pre-existing and emergency induced problems faced by the affected population, particularly for the more vulnerable sub-groups.
  • Globally, IOM’s operations are mandated to safeguard the dignity and well-being of all crisis-affected persons, especially women and girls, and aim to ensure that their equitable access to services is prioritized, integrated and coordinated across all IOM crisis operations. Furthermore, IOM’s protection interventions are designed to reduce vulnerabilities, including to GBV, by building the capacity of field practitioners to identify, prevent and mitigate risks; and enhancing operational collaboration between IOM sectors, GBV and other specialized Protection actors. Embedded in its broader approach to protection, IOM’s work on GBV is guided by the Institutional Framework for Addressing GBV in Crises (GBViC Framework).
  • Under the overall supervision of the Head of Sub-Office and Emergency Coordinator in Maiduguri and the direct supervision of the Programme Manager- MHPSS, the Project Officer (Protection) will be responsible for supporting the implementation of the project “Strengthening Response Mechanisms and Accountability to Gender Based Violence in North East Nigeria” in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe States as part of Nigeria CO’s Protection response, including the capacity building of the project staff and providing technical support towards the comprehensive integrating of Protection principles into the project implementation.
