Plan International recrute un Coordinateur du programme du lac Tchad basé au Nigeria.

 

 

 

 

The Organisation

Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We believe in the power and potential of every child. But this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it’s girls who are most affected. Working together with children, young people, our supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges facing girls and all vulnerable children.

We support children’s rights from birth until they reach adulthood. And we enable children to prepare for – and respond to – crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge. We have been building powerful partnerships for children for over 85 years, and are now active in more than 80 countries.

The Opportunity

The Lake Chad Programme Coordinator will support the coordination and implementation of the BMZ and GFFO funded projects in the Lake Chad Region, in close collaboration with the three concerned Plan International country offices (COs) and Plan International Germany. The latter acts as the prime contractual partner of both German donors (BMZ & GFFO). This 11 Mio EUR multi-country programme comprises the following intervention areas:

1. Livelihoods and Food Security,

2. Health (Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights – SRHR),

3. Conflict Transformation/Social Cohesion,

4. Child Protection in Emergencies – CPiE,

5. Nutrition.

The project’s implementation will be based on Plan International’s Adolescent Programming Toolkit with a focus on adolescent girls and young people. The intervention levels include individual, family, community, service providers and humanitarian actors/national and sub-national actors. The project’s implementation envisages merging the BMZ and GFFO projects under the Nexus-Chapeau approach.
