IYCF Officer (Roster)

About the International Rescue Committee

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) helps people whose lives and livelihoods are shattered by conflict and disaster to survive, recover, and gain control of their future. Founded in 1933 at the request of Albert Einstein, the IRC works with people forced to flee from war, conflict, and disaster, as well as the host communities that support them and those who remain within their homes and communities.

Operating in over 40 countries and 22 U.S. cities, the IRC restores safety, dignity, and hope to millions who are uprooted and struggling to endure. The organization leads the way from harm to home.

IRC in Ethiopia

The IRC began work in Ethiopia in 1999 in response to severe drought in Ethiopia's Somali region. Currently, the organization provides assistance across ten different regions, implementing emergency and development programs in:

• Health
• Water and sanitation
• Economic recovery and development (ERD)
• Women's protection and empowerment
• Education
• Child protection
• Multi-sectoral emergency response

Our Commitment

The IRC is focused on narrowing the gender gap in humanitarian aid and ensuring gender equality, diversity, and inclusion in both programs and operations. We work to establish a context where our clients, including those from cultural minority groups, enjoy the same rights and opportunities as well as equal access to services.

The IRC maintains a strong dedication to crafting an equitable and inclusive culture where safeguarding is upheld in the workplace and programs. We are determined to protect our clients and staff from safeguarding violations through prevention and, where misconduct is alleged, to address it without fear or favor.
