- Summary
UNFPA is seeking to hire an Accountability to Affected Population (AAP) Advisor to support the Humanitarian Country Team (HCT) in DRC to pilot project : “Amélioration de la rédévabilité vers les personnes affectées, y compris la prévention des abus et exploitation sexuelles au sein de la réponse humanitaire en République Démocratique du Congo”. This project is funded by the Central Emergency Funds and is under the implementation of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), with the objective of strengthening the overall accountability of the humanitarian community in DRC to the affected population with a focus in the humanitarian hubs of Centre-East (Bukavu), South-East (Kalemie) and Center (Kananga), at inter-organizational level.
The HCT in DRC adopted benchmarks during the UN system wide L3 Emergency phase (21 October 2017-20 April 2018) which include specific indicators on AAP and Protection from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (PSEA), UNFPA has been designated as the lead agency to support the HCT work on that. An AAP/PSEA working group has thus been created, it has identified some priorities to reinforce the AAP approach in DRC and ensure the achievement of outcomes of strategic objective 4 in the 2017-2019 Humanitarian Response Plan.
