We are recruiting to fill the position below:
Job Title: Consultant
Location: Borno (Bama, Dikwa, Gwoza and Ngala)
Reporting: Project Manager
Background
Alert currently has field offices in over 20 countries and across Sub-Saharan Africa, Asia, Central Asia, Caucasus, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa. International Alert began operations in Nigeria in 2011 as a partner on security governance within the Nigeria Stability and Reconciliation programme (NSRP). Since then we have launched a social cohesion and security governance programmes in the Northeast. Nigeria’s security forces, including the police, are often accused of human rights abuses including unlawful killings, arbitrary arrest and detention, extortion, sexual harassment, and disappearances. This has led to a lack of trust from civilians, both due to the perceived ineffectiveness of security response to halt violence and to years of disenfranchisement and marginalization from decision-making regarding security matters.
Currently, civilian participation in security management is limited but there is a strong demand for greater inclusion. Civilians (including traditionally marginalized groups like women and youth) are increasingly participating in local conflict management platforms. There is also greater demand for greater accountability for the actions of formal and informal security actors, and for a stronger coordination between citizens and security actors to assure that decisions being made are understood and agreed-upon by all relevant parties.
Alert’s 18 months Public Safety and Security project commenced in October 2019 and aims to address these demands and contribute to stabilization and peacebuilding in targeted communities and Internally displaced People’s (IDP) camps in Gwoza, Ngala, Bama and Dikwa LGAs of Borno state.
