Job Title:<\/strong> Labor Market Survey Consultant
\nLocation:\u00a0<\/strong>Adamawa, Borno
\nContract duration: Indicatively 20 days – from 1st October to 21st October 2016
\n
\nBackground<\/strong>
\nIn 2009, the Islamist militant group, Boko Haram became active in the Lake Chad Basin. Boko Haram attacks in Cameroon\u2019s Far North Region, Niger\u2019s Diffa Region, and in Western Chad have killed over 20,000 people. The insurgency scaled up in 2010 when the group started suicide attacks as well as attacks on so-called soft targets in the North-East Region of Nigeria. Since then, more than 230,000 Nigerians have fled to neighboring countries and 2.2 million were internally displaced – around 1.2 million children in Nigeria were forced to leave their homes1, 50% of these children under the age of 5.<\/p>\n

The far-reaching nature of violence and unrest caused by Boko Haram has led Plan Cameroon and Niger to launch a response in highly vulnerable regions of the country. However, the absence of programming in Nigeria \u2013 the center of the crisis \u2013 has not allowed Plan to respond in a regional capacity. The sub-regional Lake Chad project aims to bridge this gap and help Nigeria\u2019s most at-risk population – children and youth (in particular girls and young women) affected by the armed conflict in the Lake Chad region to realize their rights in safety and with dignity during and after the crisis. To reach this objective, Plan will respond in three programming areas: 1) Education in Emergencies, 2) Child Protection in Emergencies, and 3) Youth Economic Empowerment.
