DRC has been operational in Ethiopia since 2009. Currently, the organization works in three different regions

(Gambella, Tigray, and Somali) and one administrative town (Addis Ababa) in a range of activities with a focus on providing humanitarian assistance and creation and promotion of protective environment for refugee and displcement affected communities.

DRC is working since 2016 in the South Sudanese refugee camp of Okugo in Dimma (Gambella). DRC is the major implementing partners and focuses its attention on protection, wash, and livelihood. In protection DRC implements a wide range of protection activities including GBV prevention and response, Youth empowerment, legal aid and Child Protection prevention and response including UASC case management. The protection activities are currently funded by BPRM.

The purpose of the consultancy is to identify the technical protection material (tools, modules) needed by the Dimma team to implement their activities under BPRM grants and to identify, collect existing relevant material, adapt it and share it with the team. The consultant will be also expected to provide capacity building trainings to GBV team in Dimma.

The consultant is expected to work with the Protection team in Dimma (and especially the protection manager and the CFS, Youth and GBV teams) and with the national protection manager and engage key partners to identify and gather already existing material.

The consultant is expected to assess the current needs in terms of guidelines/tools/material (especially the awareness raising messages and modules) and use his/her knowledge and connection to provide the team with the appropriate already existing material and adapt it.

The focus will be on GBV awareness raising and group discussion facilitation materials to target, women, girls and boys and men.

The focus will be on GBV awareness raising and group discussion facilitation materials to target, women, girls and boys and men.
