Description

IOM is committed to addressing the needs and promoting and upholding the rights of migrants. IOM’s Protection Division (PXD) aims to reduce protection risks of individuals in vulnerable situations, and in particular those who are exposed to abuse, exploitation, violence, neglect and deliberate deprivation. It does so by addressing protection threats and vulnerabilities while increasing the capacities of individuals, their communities as well as those of their duty bearers. Protection encompasses all activities aimed at obtaining full respect for the rights of the individual in accordance with the letter and spirit of the relevant bodies of law. Specifically, protection involves activities that seek to directly secure, individual or group rights, as well as activities that aim to create a society in which individual and group rights are recognized and upheld. Assistance includes all direct support activities that target individuals and their families, their communities, as well as broader structural level interventions and support to governments as duty bearers. Individual and family assistance can include support to meet immediate, medium or long-term needs including food; shelter and accommodation; healthcare; education and training; employment and/or income generation; family assessments and reunification; counseling; referrals; safe and dignified return and/or sustainable reintegration. IOM’s case management staff are at the frontline of delivery of this assistance. These staff provide case management and assistance services to a wide range of individuals, including separated and unaccompanied children; victims of trafficking; migrants vulnerable to violence, exploitation and abuse; survivors of gender-based violence, and migrants unable or unwilling to remain in host countries. Under the overall supervision of the Head of Programme and the direct supervision of the AVRR Programme Coordinator, the incumbent will be responsible for working together with beneficiaries to assess their needs, identify goals, develop an assistance plan, organize delivery of the plan, and monitor and follow up on the effectiveness of the plan in meeting the identified goals.

The incumbent will collaborate with beneficiaries to assess their needs, establish goals, develop and organize the delivery of an assistance plan, and subsequently monitor its effectiveness in achieving those goals.
