Reporting To: Program Manager DURATION: 15th January 2018 to 30th September 2018 (with possibility of extension based on availability of funding and satisfactory of performance) Closing Date: 30 December 2017 Applications are only accepted through LinkedIn: Background iMMAP has started a program to support the response to the ongoing crisis in Nigeria by strengthening the IM capacity of clusters’ members in their response; advance the mechanism for regularly identifying needs of populations and to provide better data to the inter-coordination mechanism led by UN-OCHA. IMMAP will also support information systems strengthening within the clusters/sectors in Nigeria in 2018. The GBVIMS was created to harmonize data collection by GBV service providers in humanitarian settings and provide a simple system for GBV service providers to collect, store and analyze their data, and to enable the safe and ethical sharing of reported GBV incident data. The intention of the GBVIMS is both to assist service providers to better understand the GBV cases being reported as well as to enable actors to share data internally across project sites and externally with diverse agencies to facilitate broader trends analysis and improved GBV coordination. UNFPA in collaboration with partners started the roll out of the Gender Based Violence Information Management System (GBVIMS).

Before the GBVIMS was created the humanitarian community did not have a common approach to the effective and safe collection, storage, analysis and sharing of GBV-related data. This significantly hampered the use of data generated through service provision to inform programming and impeded the humanitarian community’s capacity to obtain a reliable picture of GBV being reported.

The sensitive nature of GBV incident data and concerns by many frontline actors has impacted information-sharing between key stakeholders and GBV coordination. To respond to this need, iMMAP will deploy an international IMO who will serve as GBVIMS Coordinator and will support the GBVIMS and the GBV sub-sector at large. Purpose of the Position The purpose of the GBVIMS Coordinator is to provide technical support and guidance to the operations of the GBVIMS in Nigeria. He/she is expected to support capacity enhancement of data gathering organizations to collate GBV service provision data through improved utilization of the GBVIMS tools – intake forms and incident recorders) on a regular basis. In addition he/she will support the collation and analysis of monthly GBV service provision data from DGOs and undertake monthly/quarterly/yearly trend analysis for dissemination among DGOs and authorized organizations as is reflected in the Information Sharing Protocol of the GBVIMS operations in Nigeria. Role Under the direct direction of UNFPA Deputy Representative and the overall supervision of the iMMAP Country Program Manager, the GBVIMS Inter-Agency Coordinator will facilitate the implementation of the GBVIMS in North East Nigeria, supporting the organizations and agencies using the GBVIMS for data collection through their service provision to GBV survivors.

The GBVIMS Coordinator will share a generic email address and be responsible for providing on-going technical support to improve and expand the use of the GBVIMS. The GBVIMS Inter-Agency Coordinator will help establish sustainable mechanisms and build national capacity to continue the successful implementation of the GBVIMS.

The GBVIMS Inter-Agency Coordinator should assume a neutral role and provide impartial support to GBVIMS organizations.

The Afghan National Solidarity Programme (NSP) is an initiative by the which aims to rehabilitate and develop around 5 000 villages in. The programme has been funded by $600 million () and, over three years, hopes to develop local democratically elected institutions which will identify, plan and manage for reconstruction in the locality. The project was initially, in its first year, aimed at bringing the regions determined to be in most danger up to safer standards - costing an estimated $92 million for this first year alone. Contents • • • • • • NSP Background [ ] In 2001, after gaining power, Ashraf Ghani had envisioned the creation of several national development projects which would create public trust in governance.

These programs included a National Emergency Employment Program to provide jobs across the country, a National Health and Education Program to get basic health packages to citizens and get children back in school, a National Transportation Program to make Afghanistan a land bridge for South and Central Asia and the Gulf, a National Telecommunications Program to set up a cell phone network across the country and attract private investment and a National Accountability Program to build good financial management (Ghani and Lockart, 2008). The NSP is inspired by the Kecamatan Development Program, a community-based program started in Indonesia by of the World Bank in the late 1990s. After the Taliban were ousted from power in Afghanistan, the transitional power also realized that for the people to support the state, the most crucial national development project had to be visible to the 80% of the population in the rural areas. In order to interact with these people, engage them in development, include them in the reconstruction process and provide a uniform approach across Afghanistan, the National Solidarity Program (NSP) was launched. As one of the Afghan government‘s National Priority Programs the NSP has been publicized as one of the most successful CDD programmes in the world to date [ ]. As a large scale rural reconstruction and development programme, the NSP had two primary goals: to strengthen local governance to foster rule of law and to lay the foundations of community managed sub-projects comprising reconstruction and development.

The reconstruction efforts would be aimed at improving access of rural communities to social and productive infrastructure and services. Launched in 2003, the program was instrumental in generating employment and initiating the rehabilitation of rural infrastructure devastated by severe drought and two decades of conflict. [ ] The president of the World Bank estimates the economic rate of return on the NSP to be almost 20 percent (Zoellick, 2008). The NSP is funded by the International Development Association at the World Bank and the Afghanistan Reconstruction Trust Fund. Implemented by the Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development (MRRD) and funded by the World Bank, the UK Department for International Development (DFID), the Danish International Development and Assistance Agency (DANIDA), the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) and the US Agency for International Development (USAID), the NSP is the Afghan government‘s flagship programme.

Acting as the oversight consultants and responsible for strengthening local capacity and programme management at the ministry were the consulting firms and DAI. Implementing the NSP [ ] NGOs act as facilitating partners contracted by the MRRD to initiate the NSP and provide technical and capacity building support to the communities. The MRRD has developed an operational manual and facilitating partners that are contracted utilize it for community implementation. The facilitating partners serve many different roles in NSP implementations including training social community organizers tasked with educating the community about NSP, engaging community facilitators, providing technical assistance in designing and building infrastructure, providing election experts to implement CDC elections and assisting with the of projects.

An NSP project cycle for a community is broken down into 5 steps and usually takes 2 years to complete. First the NSP facilitating partner is assigned to the province by contracting through the MRRD. The facilitating partner then contacts the community to inform them of the NSP and commence the community mobilization process. In the second step, the facilitating partner is responsible for initiating a fair and transparent election process to elect members of the locally governing community development council (CDC). The CDCs are elected through a process of identifying the eligible voters in a community, creating a cluster of approximately 25 families and ensuring at least 80% of the cluster votes for representatives.

The elected CDC members then decide on the CDC president, deputy, secretary and treasurer. Thirdly, the newly elected CDCs consult directly with members of the community to reach a consensus list of subproject ideas. This list called the community development plan (CDP) comprises projects which can be carried out with funds from the NSP and independent of outside support. The subprojects which require NSP funding are then submitted by the CDC to the MRRD and the Oversight Consultant in a proposal. The facilitating partner is responsible for training the CDC members in project proposal writing, accounting and procurement. In the fourth step, if the proposal is approved, NSP block grants are disbursed to cover the purchase of materials.

Arriving in installments the funds are also used for subproject implementation. The CDC continues to report to MRRD and to the community about the project‘s implementation process and budget. Lastly, the facilitating partners and CDCs undertake an evaluation of the technical quality of completed subprojects and documents the lessons learned. NSP Expansion [ ] Since there is no formal census data available about Afghanistan it is hard to accurately identify the number of villages.

Previously, it was estimated that approximately 20000 rural settlements or villages existed, however this was markedly increased to 42000 villages. Since field coordinators have reported that several of the villages comprise less than the minimum of 25 families required to initiate a CDC, it is estimated by the MRRD that around 28500 NSP communities would be a reasonable equivalent to rural settlements estimate.

This approximation thus average 1 NSP community = 1.474 rural settlements. However the current average used is 1 NSP community = 1.583 rural settlements. (National Solidarity Program Website, 2010). Once fully implemented the MRRD expects to reach all the communities across Afghanistan through the NSP. The NSP community expansion across Afghanistan has been divided into several phases. In Phase 1 which commenced in May 2003, 3 districts in each province were targeted in the first year reaching 6000 communities. In the second year this target was expanded reaching 4500 more communities which translated into half of Afghanistan being included in the program.

In 2005 or the third year of the NSP an additional 6000 communities were targeted. The NSP Phase 1 concluded in March 2007 reaching approximately 17300 communities. In Phase 2 which ran from April 2007 until March 2010 the World Bank proposed covering an additional 4300 new communities bringing the total to 21600. This coverage meant that approximately 80-90% of Afghanistan had CDCs.

On June 27, 2010 the World Bank announced that it had approved a $40 million USD grant to support Phase 3 of the NSP. The third phase will build on the achievements of the first two phases of the NSP and complete the expansion of CDCs to all the rural communities in Afghanistan. In Phase 3, the Afghan government has introduced several innovations to institute the CDCs as lasting sustainable bodies of local governance. The expansion will also support the disbursement of block grants to the remaining 10320 communities for full NSP coverage across Afghanistan. In addition, to supporting the initial development needs, a second round of grants will be provided to 17,400 CDCs that have successfully used their initial grant. Most importantly, NSP III will focus on improving the institutional quality, sustainability and governance of CDCs and enhance their ability to engage with other institutions.
