Job Title: Business Support Assistant (Social Protection Intern) (2 Job Opportunities)
Organisation: United Nations World Food Programme (WFP)
Duty Station: Uganda
About US:
United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is the world’s largest humanitarian agency, fighting hunger worldwide. The mission of WFP is to help the world achieve Zero Hunger in our lifetimes. Every day, WFP works worldwide to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry and that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need. In emergencies, WFP gets food to where it is needed, saving the lives of victims of war, civil conflict and natural disasters. After an emergency, WFP uses food to help communities rebuild their lives. On average, WFP reaches more than 80 million people with food assistance in 80 countries each year. The organization has the global footprint, deep field presence and local knowledge and relationships necessary to provide access to food and contribute to lasting solutions, especially in many of the world’s most remote and fragile areas.
Job Summary: In addition to the crisis response programmes for refugees, WFP is implementing Social Protection programme activities covering all refugee hosting districts in West Nile. Koboko Field Office covers 7 out of the 8 districts supported under the Social Protection Programme which include NutriCash (Nutrition Sensitive Cash Transfers), Social Behavior Change Communication (SBCC), District Local Government (DLG) capacity strengthening, gender and protection and market facilitation. The field office has the highest refugee caseload, and this calls for more resources including human resource leaving gaps to support other programme activities. Having two interns to support the Social protection programme will help to bridge the staffing gap.
