تعلن منظمة GOAL في الاردن عن حاجتها الى :
Social Inclusion and Gender Advisor - Amman
12 Months contract
Amman, Jordan
General Description of the Programme/GOAL
GOAL is an international emergency and development NGO dedicated to alleviating the suffering of the poorest and most vulnerable. GOAL was established in 1977 and is currently operational in 14 countries worldwide. GOAL began operations within Northern Syria in 2012 responding to the acute needs of conflict-affected communities with a support structure based in Turkey and Jordan. Within Northern Syria, GOAL’s operations are primarily focused on Idleb and Northern Aleppo Governorates.
GOAL has been working in Syria since 2013, responding to the acute needs of conflict affected communities. The programme focuses on food security, WASH, shelter, livelihoods and emergency response with a growing emphasis on cash and voucher modalities. GOAL Syria implements its programmes directly, with over 500 staff based in Syria, as well as through Syrian NGO partners. GOAL’s programme works at the household, community, and camp levels to improve community resilience and household’s coping strategies.
GOAL works to incorporate four pillars in its approach to programming: influencing systems, building resilience, fostering inclusion, and social and behavioural change. GOAL’s understanding of inclusion is that of a dynamic process that gives recognition, roles, influence and powers to individuals or groups in a particular system, counteracting the processes that create vulnerability, exclusion and discrimination. GOAL ensures that these processes are understood and used to inform programme design, with the aim of enabling people to participate in and shape their societies. Gender and age are key elements affecting inclusion and the change GOAL creates is with groups that are in some way marginalised, neglected or excluded.
