The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees was

protection to refugees; seek permanent solutions for the problems of refugees
and safeguard refugee rights and well-being. UNHCR has an additional mandate
concerning issues of statelessness, as it is given a designated role under
Article 11 of the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness.
Job Summary ⇒ The Comprehensive Refugee Response CRR Officer will be
critical in supporting the development and implementation of a comprehensive
response at national, regional and district levels. The incumbent will have
extensive contacts with both internal and external counterparts and partners.
Within UNHCR, the Officer will establish close working relations with the
relevant staff working in the community services, protection, program and
field sectors. Key external partners will include the CRRF secretariat,
national, regional and district authorities, the UN and international
organizations, UNHCR implementing and operational partners, International and
Local NGOs, development agencies and other actors engaged in humanitarian and
development initiatives in the relevant districts. The incumbent will be the
key interlocutor with National and District Government Authorities and will
have to identify and actively partner with other actors and structures
potentially able to contribute to the strategies and solutions for refugees.
The incumbent normally works under the supervision of the Snr CRR Officer or
Coordinator or the UNHCR Regional Representative or a senior Officer as
delegated by the Regional Representative.
Key Duties and Responsibilities

government offices at regional, national and district levels, as well as a

participation in all planning processes.

and tailor specific guidance, as needed in the various stages of the CRRF
roll-out.

for example by expanding development engagement of actors who have primarily
engaged with refugees from a humanitarian angle but otherwise engage in both
humanitarian and development work, and seek new partnerships with
international and local actors who have previously not been engaged in refugee
response.
⇗ Assist in the implementation of a communication strategy of CRRF at
regional and district level to generate support from all partners and to
strengthen links between the CRRF Secretariat and partners at the operational
