Job Title:\u00a0Protection Coordinator
\nReq ID:<\/strong> 2682
\nLocation<\/strong>: Maiduguri, Borno
\nStarting date:<\/strong> 1st November, 2017
\nDuration:<\/strong> 6 months (with possible extension)
\nBackground<\/strong>
\nOver the past year, insurgency has intensified attacks which have spread from North-East Nigeria to Cameroon, Chad and Niger, affecting some 20 million people. Suicide bombings and raids targeting civilians in villages and in cities around the Lake Chad basin have caused widespread trauma, prevented people from accessing essential services and destroyed infrastructure. Across the region, over 2.8 million people are displaced; most of who are sheltered by communities that count among the world\u2019s most vulnerable.<\/p>\n

The combined effect of growing insecurity, fast population growth and severe vulnerability resulting from a changing climate, environmental degradation, poverty and under-investment in social services is translating into record numbers of people in need of emergency relief. There are 9.2 million in need of humanitarian assistance. Nigeria is hosting 7m, Cameroon 1.5m, Niger 460.000 and Chad 257.000. The increasing number of attacks and arrival of displaced children have placed an additional burden on already weak health and education systems.<\/p>\n

Insecurity, displacement, disrupted agricultural activities and cross-border trade continue to undermine communities\u2019 livelihoods and have resulted in a sharp rise in food insecurity. Some 4.4 million people facing severe food insecurity urgently need support in the region, 90 per cent of them in north-east Nigeria, with 50,000 people in Phase 5, the highest level of food insecurity under the Cadre Harmonis\u00e9 classification. Throughout the region, an estimated 223.000 severely acutely malnourished children could die if not urgently assisted.<\/p>\n
