Burkina Faso NRC recrute 01 Education Specialist

NRC recrute 01 Education Specialist Burkina Faso ouagadougou Background/Context The humanitarian context in the cross-border area between Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger continues to deteriorate. The deteriorating security situation led some thousands of people from the Sahel, North, North Central, and East regions to flee to neighbouring towns. In addition, the presence of non-state armed groups and improvised explosive devices made roads inaccessible and hampered activities. The violence is having a serious impact on fragile livelihoods and people’s ability to support themselves and is challenging already weak basic social services. More and more people are fleeing their homes in search of safety in nearby fields or villages, sometimes repeatedly. 2,6 Million people are internally displaced in Burkina Faso (UNHCR dashboard on May 2023). In Burkina Faso, the Sahel and Centre-Nord regions are the most affected and have the largest number of displaced people even though the displacement tendencies are worsening also in the East and Boucle de Mohun Region. The large-scale displacement has a strong impact on already scarce natural resources, with negative consequences for both the displaced population and host communities, increasing the risk of undermining social cohesion and population protection. In Burkina Faso, humanitarian access to populations in need and access to basic social services remains a major problem. We are witnessing a shrinking humanitarian space in the areas where humanitarian activities are concentrated. NRC has established humanitarian operations in Burkina Faso in 2019.
