BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT:
The World Food Programme (WFP) is the leading Humanitarian Organization fighting hunger and changing lives worldwide, delivering food assistance in emergencies, and working with communities to improve nutrition and build resilience. In Egypt, WFP is committed to supporting the Government’s priorities towards the achievement of the SDGs.
WFP’s Country Strategic Plan 2023-2028 supports progress towards Sustainable Development Goals 2 and 17 through three outcomes:
WFP is therefore implementing its humanitarian response to crisis-affected populations, including refugees and asylum seekers, as well as designing
resilience-building activities for refugees and host community members. WFP’s approach to food security is two-pronged; it first ensures access to basic food needs for vulnerable populations, and secondly, it addresses long-term resilience building for future self-reliance. Through its "One Refugee Policy" WFP targets vulnerable crisis-affected populations irrespective of nationality with cash-based transfers to ensure they can meet their essential food needs throughout the year.
Under the supervision of the Crisis Response Officer, the position of National Programme Policy Officer will therefore contribute to building the national institutional capacity in the office and will ensure coherent and continuous support to other units. Additionally, as part of the revised Business Model, this function will support the humanitarian-development nexus through social protection enhancements.
