ABOUT THE MISSION IN SOUTH SUDAN …

The civil armed conflict that broke out in South Sudan in mid‐December 2013 has burdened the country with a multi‐layered array of challenges. According to OCHA and UNHCR, in December 2018, over 4 million people were still forced to flee their homes due to insecurity, including 1.87 million IDPs and 2.27 million refugees still hosted in neighboring countries. The protracted nature of the conflict has considerably destroyed key basic infrastructures, and weakened livelihood opportunities, while eroding the coping capacities of the local communities. The most vulnerable are also facing the impact of climate change, with alteration of usual rainfall patterns, leading to seasonal droughts and flooding, causing further displacements and contributing to resource‐based conflicts.

According to the 2019 HRP, 1.8 M people will be in need of nutritional care across the country, and IPC data suggests that the burden of malnutrition will continue to increase due to food insecurity. Indeed, the deadly conflict brought a deep economic crisis which has directly affected the population access to basic resources.

The mission:

SI’s mission in South Sudan has been fully operational since 2006, with WaSH interventions in Upper Nile and Jonglei State. In 2018 SI managed to reach about 90,000 people with its emergency WASH, FSL and S-NFI interventions in 8 out of 10 former states of South Sudan.

Djibouti: Consultant international pour concevoir une stratégie nationale de communication pour le changement social et de comportement, Djibouti

$

0
Organization: UN Children's Fund
Country: Djibouti
Closing date: 24 Sep 2019

1. CONTEXTE

La République de Djibouti est située en Afrique de l’Est. Avec une population de 1.020.000[1], et une croissance économique soutenue, la République de Djibouti fait partie des pays à revenu moyen intermédiaire. L’UNICEF en partenariat avec le Gouvernement de Djibouti, a élaboré un programme de coopération pour la période 2018-2022. Ce programme est une contribution aux priorités nationales du pays de l’Initiative Nationale de Développement Social (INDS) à la Stratégies de Croissance Accélérée et de Promotion de l’Emploi 2015-2019, la Stratégie de Protection sociale et aussi à l’atteinte des Objectifs Durables pour le Développement (ODD). La Communication pour le Développement joue un rôle important en tant que stratégie intégrée venant en appui à la réalisation holistique des droits des enfants à travers: le renforcement des capacités des institutions en matière de génération des évidences, l’amélioration de l’engagement communautaire par le renforcement des capacités des agents communautaires en faveur du dialogue pour le changement social pour renforcer les droits de l’enfant.

Pour mener à bien cet objectif, le Ministère des Affaires Sociales et des Solidarités (MASS) a décidé de mettre en œuvre avec l’appui de l’UNICEF un Paquet de Pratiques Sociales Essentielles comme mesures d’accompagnement à son programme d’assistance sociale aux ménages vulnérables et ceci permettra aussi d’harmoniser et d’intégrer l’action communautaire au sein de ses différents programmes en faveur des communautés.

En Octobre 2018, l’UNICEF et le Gouvernement de Djibouti ont lancé une recherche formative portant sur les déterminants des pratiques sociales essentielles - en particulier les aspects socio-anthropologiques. Les résultats de cette recherche permettront d’élaborer une stratégie C4D et un plan de communication stratégique national, basé sur des évidences, portant attention aux spécificités locales et adapté culturellement.

2. JUSTIFICATION

Dans la stratégie nationale de protection sociale, les populations vulnérables ont accès à des programmes d’assistance sociale (PASS, PNSF, programmes destinés aux étudiants à besoins sociaux, projet filets sociaux, projet de promotion de l’emploi chez les jeunes etc.) Afin de pérenniser ces programmes, des mesures d’accompagnement seront mis en place pour renforcer la participation communautaire. A travers une approche de cycle de vie, un paquet de pratiques sociales essentielles va s’adresser au renforcement des capacités dès la grossesse, l'accouchement, la période néonatale et postnatale (visant à la fois les mères et les nourrissons), la petite enfance, l'enfance et l’adolescence. La mise en place d’une stratégie de communication permettra de renforcer l’engagement des communautés aux programmes d’assistance sociale dans un premier temps. Puis dans un deuxième temps, la stratégie permettra aussi d’engager d’autres parties prenantes comme les députés, les autorités régionales et locales, les autorités religieuses, les organisations de la société civile etles médias pour faciliter un changement social.

Afin de suivre l’efficacité de la stratégie de la C4D et d’appuyer les rapports sur les résultats/changements, un plan participatif de suivi des changements comportementaux et sociaux sera nécessaire. L’objectif du plan de suivi sera de suivre et de mesurer le changement d’un ensemble de comportements parmi tous les publics ou parties intéressées visés. Les processus de suivi devraient permettre de mesurer la mise en œuvre du programme, aidé à déterminer les résultats des programmes plus directement attribuables à l’intervention et à capturer spécifiquement les processus par lesquels ces résultats sont atteints.

Une stratégie multisectorielle globale de la C4D, avec un plan cohérent fixe et horodaté de suivi des changements comportementaux et sociaux et des jalons améliorera la qualité des interventions en matière de C4D du MASS. Il fournira également un cadre pour les interventions de la C4D dans le secteur, en mettant en place le cadre d’action communautaire pour le renforcement des structures communautaires dans le pays et le développement et le déploiement du monitorage communautaire participatif. Le document de stratégie multisectorielle de la C4D servira également d’outil stratégique de mobilisation des ressources.
