International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies - IFRC

<div>
 Organizational Context
 
 
 The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world&rsquo;s largest humanitarian organization, with a network of 191-member National Societies (NSs). The overall aim of the IFRC is &ldquo;to inspire, encourage, facilitate, and promote at all times all forms of humanitarian activities by NSs with a view to preventing and alleviating human suffering and thereby contributing to the maintenance and promotion of human dignity and peace in the world.&rdquo; The IFRC works to meet the needs and improve the lives of vulnerable people before, during and after disasters, health emergencies and other crises.
 
 
 IFRC is part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (Movement), together with its member National Societies and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). The work of the IFRC is guided by the following fundamental principles: humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity, and universality.
 
 
 IFRC is led by its Secretary General, and has its Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. The Headquarters are organized into three main Divisions: (i) National Society Development and Operations Coordination; (ii) Global Relations, Humanitarian Diplomacy and Digitalization; and (iii) Management Policy, Strategy and Corporate Services.
 
 
 IFRC has five regional offices in Africa, Asia Pacific, Middle East and North Africa, Europe, and the Americas. IFRC also has country cluster delegation and country delegations throughout the world. Together, the Geneva Headquarters and the field structure (regional, cluster and country) comprise the IFRC Secretariat.
 
 
 IFRC has a zero-tolerance policy on conduct that is incompatible with the aims and objectives of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, including sexual exploitation and abuse, sexual harassment and other forms of harassment, abuse of authority, discrimination, and lack of integrity (including but not limited to financial misconduct). IFRC also adheres to strict child safeguarding principles.
 
 
 The Global Road Safety Partnership (GRSP), hosted by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), is committed to reducing road crash deaths and serious injuries in low- and middle-income countries. According to the WHO Global Status Report on Road Safety 2023, road traffic injuries remain a major global health and development challenge, claiming approximately
 
 1.19 million lives annually
 
 . These deaths disproportionately affect low- and middle-income countries, which account for
 
 90% of fatalities
 
 despite having fewer vehicles and less road infrastructure.
 
 
 Road traffic injuries and deaths represent a manmade humanitarian crisis and GRSP/IFRC are committed to evidence-based interventions to address this crisis.
 
 
 Road traffic crashes are the
 
 leading cause of death among children and youth aged 5&ndash;29 years
 
 , and two-thirds of fatalities occur among people of working age, causing significant social and economic harm.
 
 
 The Global Road Safety Partnership works in a number of low- and middle- income countries to reduce road crash deaths and serious injuries. In particular, GRSP supports policy change and implementation on the national and sub-national level through the provision of grants and technical assistance to local civil society organizations and Red Cross Red Crescent-National Societies. GRSP also builds the capacity of road police in a broad range of countries under various road safety initiatives (e.g. Bloomberg Philanthropies Initiative for Global Road Safety, World Bank-Global Road Safety Facility, United Nations Road Safety Fund, Asia Development Bank) to strengthen their ability enforce road safety policies.
 
 
 
 Job Purpose
 
 
 
 GRSP&rsquo;s Road Policing Capacity Building Programme&rsquo;s objective is to support the ongoing development of road policing agencies in selected cities to effectively and efficiently enforce road safety-related policies utilizing international good practice methods and interventions.
