Introduction
Country: Philippines
Description of the Assignment:
As humanitarian needs continue to grow beyond means and capacity, more effort must be placed on prevention, strengthening community engagement and resilience building to better address present and future shocks. Humanitarian action should enhance interagency cooperation and promote multi-sectoral approaches towards multi-year strategy priorities and outcomes that makes people less dependent on short-term humanitarian assistance, while fostering their resilience, self-sufficiency, dignity and independence.
The initiative will develop and test innovative, lean and context-specific approaches for collective coordination and response that put people and their priorities, needs, rights and capacities at the center. These approaches will achieve tangible outcomes and solutions that respond more effectively and sustainably to affected populations’ priorities, by addressing protection risks, contributing to community resilience, improving access to basic services and sustainable livelihoods, or other measures. Specifically, the initiative will prototype an integrated people-centered and localized climate-resilient model to adapt to, cope with and recover from present and future shocks affecting most at-risk Filipino people.
Period of assignment/services 36-person days
