The International Organization for Migration (IOM) is the leading inter-governemental Organization in the field of migration, and is dedicated to promoting safe, orderly, dignified migration for the benefit of all. Present in Morocco since 2007, IOM works in close collaboration with government authorities, institutional entities, the private sector, international partners, United Nations agencies, as well as the academic world and civil society to address migration issues through a holistic and concerted approach. To this end, IOM Morocco and its partners work together at regional, national, and local levels to generate the benefits of migration for the sustainable development of Morocco.
Under the overall supervision of the Head of Programmes (HoP); and direct supervision of the Protection Officer; and, in collaboration with relevant units within the mission, notably the Health unit, the successful candidate will be responsible and accountable for supporting the implementation of activities related to the Protection portfolio, in particular in the framework of the Comprehensive Protection Programme (CPP), funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands. The project is unique in that it aims to provide a comprehensive approach responding to varying needs across the country, for different types of migrant and host communities, and varying geographical locations and therefore varying contexts. All interventions are aimed at providing a safe and stable environment for migrants and host communities, hence multiply durable socio-economic opportunities, and limit the risks undertaken through irregular journeys towards Europe.
