CFA-DISABILITY INCLUSION AND PROTECTION MAINSTREAMING SPECIALIST

1. Project Context and Scope:

Established in 1951, IOM is a leading inter-governmental organization providing services to governments and migrants in the field of migration. With its 173 member States and offices in more than 100 countries, IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all.

Pakistan remains the third-largest refugee-hosting country globally, hosting over 1.4 million Afghan refugees holding Proof of Registration (PoR) cards issued by the Government, 840,000 Afghan Citizen

Card (ACC) holders, and an estimated 775,000 undocumented Afghan migrants1. With the recent unprecedented change in the political and security situation in Afghanistan, the number of Afghan

nationals crossing into Pakistan has increased, with this trend projected to continue in the short to medium term. Owing to their partly informal status, the Afghan migrant populations have largely

remained under the radar, not being eligible for any systematic humanitarian assistance – thereby facing significant challenges.

Under the overall supervision of the Programme Manager, the Capacity building consultant will focus on developing a training package for the IOM Protection team focused on strengthening protection capacities and team building.

Tasks to be performed under this contract:

Support the planning, coordination, and follow-up of capacity-building activities on disability inclusion for mission staff, implementing partners, and external stakeholders, ensuring timely implementation of agreed action points.

Undertake regular field monitoring missions to assess the implementation and quality of disability inclusion and protection activities and liaise with field teams and implementing partners to address operational challenges and follow up on identified action points.
Contribute to the identification of programme gaps, lessons learned, and best practices, and provide recommendations to strengthen programme quality, accountability, and inclusive approaches within protection programming.
Support the Protection Unit in the implementation of protection activities, including support to case management processes and cash for protection interventions, in line with protection principles and organizational procedures.
Support the development of briefing notes, visibility materials, situation updates, and reports related to disability inclusion and protection activities, as required.
Coordinate with relevant internal units and external stakeholders to support the effective implementation of protection and inclusion activities at field level.
