Since 2009, the Boko Haram insurgency has crippled north eastern Nigeria. Borno State continues to be most affected, with over 1.8 million internally displaced persons (IDPs). Recent advances by the Nigerian Army and the Multinational Joint Task Force have improved humanitarian access in 22 of the 27 Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Borno, but have also revealed the extent of the crisis. In newly accessible areas, basic infrastructure has been destroyed, essential services are non-existent, and most local governance systems are not functional.
In support to the UN-led coordinated humanitarian response in the region, INTERSOS is implementing a seven months GBV and CP integrated project that address critical gaps in protection over four sites for highly vulnerable population in the newly accessible IDP camps and host communities in Bama (Banki), Mobbar, and Monguno LGAs, Borno State, Nigeria. With the project, INTERSOS aims at strengthening implementation of GBV programme response which includes ensuring provision of accessible confidential, survivor-centered services to address GBV and SGBV prevention and response.
Based on the GBVSS WG intervention strategy INTERSOS ensure 1) provision of timely referral to most appropriate services available (medical care, mental health and psychosocial support, education and livelihood opportunities) to GBV and SGBV survivors (adults and minors), according to the needs and established SOPs. 2) Individual files for survivors will be created, together with continuous monitoring of service provision, providing direct basic emotional support in a safe environment (listening centres) and ensure that cases under assistance receive all the care and support needed. 3) integrate the inter-agency efforts aiming to ensure safe and ethical collection, storage, analysis and sharing of reported SGBV incident data, using the GBV Information Management System (GBVIMS) to safely and ethically collect, store, share and analyse non-identifying SGBV data, in order to further improve programming.
The Pm of the CP project will oversee the activities, Administrative, HR and Logistics component of the project, including Maiduguri, Bama – Banki, Mobbar and Monguno, ensuring operations quality, strategic programming and planning, ensuring strategic growth and strong external and internal representation and advocacy. S/he must be able to motivate and lead a diverse staff as well as effectively oversee the activities, budgets and partnerships.
