General Background
UNHCR is working with approximately 200,000 refugees in Dollo Ado, Somali Region, Ethiopia. It has been acknowledged that the emergency phase has passed but it is recognized that a different way of working need to be adopted to support refugees and host communities into a longer term more sustainable development phase.
With support from the IKEA Foundation, DFID and other donors, UNHCR supports ARRA as an operational partner and NGOs as implementing partners in a range of sectors including Education, WASH, Protection, Nutrition, Health, Shelter and Livelihoods. Livelihoods is being seen as an increasingly important sector in order to support people to access income and become more self-reliant. One of the key components to supporting this objective is to involve refugees and host community in deciding what is most beneficial for improving their lives and livelihoods. More work is required to understand the available skill sets among refugees and host community, what they are prepared to contribute to actions undertaken for their benefit and how much responsibility people are willing to take in future development.
With this in mind UNHCR SOMEL has embarked on an endeavour of streamlining and improving all the existing data collection mechanisms, also improving its analytical and information management capacity, thus strengthening the operational planning, management of interventions, monitoring and reporting functions. Through such systematic approach to data collection and information management UNHCR SOMEL aims to maximize on use of all available resources, particularly through an increased engagement of implementing partners and refugee/host communities in data collection, monitoring and reporting.
The Information Management Associate assists in the production and dissemination of the aforementioned information on the population of concern, including but not limited to Protection and Programme information.
