Emergency Coordinator - Molo in Kenya


Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) has been present in Somalia since early 2004 and has since expanded its Horn of Africa Programme to Kenya in 2006 and to Ethiopia in 2011. Since 2004, the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) has demonstrated a regional competence and expertise in working with displaced populations. NRC has mainly focused on Somalis who are displaced by the ongoing conflict and more recently by the drought and famine. The Regional Office is based in Nairobi, Kenya with offices and operations in Somalia (Puntland, Somaliland and Mogadishu), Kenya (Dadaab, Kakuma and Molo), Ethiopia (Addis Ababa, Dolo Ado, Shire and Asosa) and Yemen (Sa’naa).
The NRC Horn of Africa mission is an expanding programme. NRC has been operating in Somaliland (SL) since 2004, in Puntland (PL) since 2006, and in South Central (SC), with presence in Mogadishu, since January 2007. NRC started its operations in Kenya in the refugee camps in Dadaab in February 2007 and initiated shelter activities targeting Post-Election Violence IDPs in the Rift Valley region of Kenya in 2011. NRC then expanded its refugee programme in Kenya to Kakuma camps where it initiated sanitation and hygiene activities in the first half of 2012.
Prioritized activities focus on shelter and infrastructure construction; water, hygiene and sanitation; emergency education including youth education; protection; food security and livelihoods. Programmes target both emergency responses to acute crises as well as the capacity to address recurring protection needs of refugee or IDP populations through durable solutions. Obtaining and maintaining access to the displaced populations remains the main operational challenge in the Horn of Africa region and in particular in Somalia.
The Horn of Africa mission is supported through a Regional Office in Nairobi, Kenya. Staff, International: 26. National: 300, Expected turnover for 2012: Approximately 50 million USD funded by 12 donors.
