NORCAP works to improve aid to better protect and empower people affected by crisis and climate change. We do this by providing expertise and solutions to humanitarian, development and peacebuilding partners, because we believe working together is the best way to reduce needs, risks and vulnerability over time. We seek and promote more effective ways of working at the global level and in the field. NORCAP’s aim is not only to reduce needs, but also to create choice and opportunity for people.
We work with and through our partners to improve aid in two complementary ways:
We provide targeted expertise to strengthen our partners’ response
We collaborate with partners to develop solutions to unmet gaps and challenges
We are looking to recruit a Transitions Adviser for Colombia to be hosted by UNOCHA. The Transitions Adviser will serve as liaison with the UN Verification Mission to Colombia on political and peace issues, and the UN Country Team (UNCT) and Humanitarian Country Team (HCT), as required.
The transitions adviser will strengthen the coherence of the UN System, including liaison between the UNCT, the HCT and the UN Verification Mission, and coordination with the Colombian Government and donors to make tangible contributions towards an inclusive and sustainable peace, along the lines of the UN Secretary General’s vision to better connect humanitarian, peacebuilding and development efforts
