UNHCR, Protection Secondment
As the lead agency for the Protection Sector, UNHCR facilitates the coordination of the humanitarian response with primary attention to the situations in Rakhine and Kachin/northern Shan. Initiatives include protection mainstreaming, support to community-based protection groups, psycho-social support for women, and the development of referral pathways and protection assessment tools.
Currently UNHCR Myanmar deploys Coordinators for the Protection as well as Shelter / Non-food items (NFI) / Camp Coordination & Camp Management (CCCM) Clusters who lead the coordination activities at the national level. The proposed position of the SDC/SHA Secondment (Field Officer Coordination) will assist the two coordinators with their respective day-to-day work.

Meanwhile, the humanitarian situation in Myanmar is characterized by a combination of vulnerability to natural disasters, armed conflicts, inter-communal tensions, statelessness, trafficking and migration. Over 240,000 people remain displaced in the country |
