JOB CONTEXT :

The Myanmar Thailand (MyTh) program involves all HI’s interventions’ contexts (Armed Violence Reduction, Emergency and Development) and was created in 2016 with the merge of 2 already existing missions, setting up cross border initiatives to integrate the return of refugees from Thailand to Myanmar as part of its regional strategy.

 

In Thailand, HI started working in 1984 and first focused its actions on the delivery of mobility and assistive devices to Thai and Burmese landmine/ERW victims. HI currently implements activities in the camps of Burmese refugees on the Thailand/Myanmar border and in three thematic areas: Rehabilitation, Disability and Social Inclusion (DSI) including inclusive child development, implemented in 5 camps and Risk Education (RE), implemented in 9 camps.

 

Emergency, Armed Violence Reduction (Humanitarian Mine Action) and development sectors coexist in Myanmar, creating a diverse, challenging and dynamic working environment, where coordination is operated mainly through working groups and clusters. Consortia and pool funds are frequent. Intense networking is essential for successful fundraising and efficient implementation.

 

HI has developed its first regional strategy and it is therefore on the one hand consolidating current sectors of activities, and on the other exploring the needs and possibility to enter in new operational sectors.

 

Following months of increasing tension, a military coup occurred in Myanmar on February 1st 2021, to contest the result of the national elections held in November 2020 which proclaimed as winner the National League for Democracy (NLD). The elected government was deposed by the Tadmadaw, the Myanmar military, which proclaimed a year-long state of emergency after which new elections would be held. President Win Myint and State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi were detained or placed under house arrest along with key officials, and all powers (executive, legislative and judiciary) were vested in Commander-in-Chief (CinC) of Defence Services Min Aung Hlaing under the provision of Section 419 of the 2008 Myanmar Constitution.

Since the coup, Myanmar is facing daily demonstrations, most government workers and civil society actors have joined the Civil Disobedience Movement (CDM), a curfew has been installed, banking and cash flow operations have been disrupted, insecurity is rising throughout the country and the repression is getting increasingly violent, with night raids to arrest civilians, people increasingly injured or killed during protests, arbitrary arrests and detentions, cybersecurity tightened and daily internet cut-offs, 5 local media outlets have had their licence revoked. Government scrutiny on health workers has been increased, with military presence in the hospitals and emergency health workers being controlled in the street during emergency operations.

In light of human rights violations and increasing violence, the international community started condemning the coup, with further sanctions imposed on key military officials and some bilateral cooperation suspended. Refraining from engaging with the de facto authorities, most donors are rather focusing on emergency assistance, Rule of Law, Human rights, protection of the democratic space and supporting vulnerable communities.

 

Under the responsibility of the Regional Technical Unit Manager (TUM) of the MYANMAR & THAILAND PROGRAM (MyTh Program), the Field Protection Technical Specialist contributes within the program to the implementation of the mandate and the 10-year strategy of Humanity & Inclusion. He/she ensures optimal quality and impact of the projects implemented in the country, through a delegation system with appropriate control mechanisms. He/she shares with all HI managers the responsibility of a sound management and successful functioning of the global organization, through paradigm changes.

JOB CONTEXT :

The Myanmar Thailand (MyTh) program involves all HI’s interventions’ contexts (Armed Violence Reduction, Emergency and Development) and was created in 2016 with the merge of 2 already existing missions, setting up cross border initiatives to integrate the return of refugees from Thailand to Myanmar as part of its regional strategy.

In Thailand, HI started working in 1984 and first focused its actions on the delivery of mobility and assistive devices to Thai and Burmese landmine/ERW victims. HI currently implements activities in the camps of Burmese refugees on the Thailand/Myanmar border and in three thematic areas: Rehabilitation, Disability and Social Inclusion (DSI) including inclusive child development, implemented in five camps and Risk Education (RE), implemented in nine camps.

Emergency, Armed Violence Reduction (Humanitarian Mine Action) and development sectors coexist in Myanmar, creating a diverse, challenging and dynamic working environment, where coordination is operated mainly through working groups and clusters. Consortia and pool funds are frequent. Intense networking is essential for successful fundraising and efficient implementation.

HI has developed its first regional strategy and it is therefore, on the one hand consolidating current sectors of activities, and on the other exploring the needs and possibility to enter in new operational sectors.

Since the coup, Myanmar is facing daily demonstrations, most government workers and civil society actors have joined the Civil Disobedience Movement (CDM), a curfew has been installed, banking and cash flow operations have been disrupted, insecurity is rising throughout the country and the repression is getting increasingly violent, with night raids to arrest civilians, people increasingly injured or killed during protests, arbitrary arrests and detentions, cybersecurity tightened and daily internet cut-offs, five local media outlets have had their licence revoked. Government scrutiny on health workers has been increased, with military presence in the hospitals and emergency health workers being controlled in the street during emergency operations.

In light of human rights violations and increasing violence, the international community started condemning the coup, with further sanctions imposed on key military officials and some bilateral cooperation suspended. Refraining from engaging with the de facto authorities, most donors are rather focusing on emergency assistance, Rule of Law, Human rights, protection of the democratic space and supporting vulnerable communities.

In March 2021, a rapid rehabilitation needs assessment done by the previous Specialist illustrated the following concerns:

-Lack of accurate data on the number of injuries, but similar context (Gaza) could mean that more than 25% of injuries lead to disability and request rehabilitation care

-Lack of services (general hospitals versus private clinics versus other actors ICRC, TLMM) and few response or technical capacities support available from OPDs with limited mobility due to a situation.

-Absenteeism from rehabilitation care could worsen some impairments. In addition, a backlog of cases that would need extra human resources right now and on the long term

-System strengthening activities (like rATA or national rehab strategy) are put on hold

-Need for a) capacity building (trauma management, rehab, AT delivery) of community volunteers and alternative health facilities; b) tele rehabilitation; c) contingency stock piling of assistive technologies; d) protection of medical workers and beneficiaries; e) strong data collection and case management; f) increase in referral support for urgent medical and MHPSS interventions

JOB CONTEXT:

The position of Regional Humanitarian advisor has been occupied during one year based in Dhaka under the supervision of the Bangladesh program. Given the current development of the Myanmar activities, it has been decided to base the position in Myanmar to support the positioning and advocacy activities in Myanmar while continuing implementing HI’s advocacy and positioning strategy in Bangladesh. The position is based in Yangon with regular travel to Sittwe and eventually to Bangladesh.

 

The MyTh (Myanmar Thailand) program was created in 2016 with the merge of 2 already existing missions. Setting up cross border initiatives and integrate the coming return of refugees from Thailand to Myanmar is at the heart of the regional strategy. In Thailand, HI started working in 1984 and first focused its actions on the delivery of mobility and assistive devices to Thai and Burmese landmine/ERW victims. HI currently implements activities in 9 camps of Burmese refugees on the Thailand/Myanmar border. Since the democratic transition in Myanmar started, the possibility of a progressive closure of the camps has become more tangible although for the time being figures are quite slow. It is expected that funding will be affected by this dynamic in the next future. HI's first activities in Myanmar were in the frame of the Cyclone Nargis's response, from October 2008 to December 2009. Following the ratification of the CRPD by the Myanmar authorities, HI decided to reopen a mission in Myanmar in 2014 and signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Ministry of Social Welfare in September 2015, which is currently under renewal. In 2017, HI also signed a MOU with the Ministry of Health and Sport was signed.

 

The 3 pillars of the HI MyTh Programme 2018-2019 are:

1/ Armed Violence Reduction (AVR) including Victim Assistance and community based Risk Education,

2/ Inclusion with projects covering: support to Disabled People Organisations and promotion of Rights; inclusive Disaster Risk Reduction, Child Development; Hospital Emergency Preparedness; livelihoods

3/ Health and Rehabilitation with project covering psychosocial and physical rehabilitation

 

HI has been working in Bangladesh since 1997, with a focus on creating sustainable changes in terms of ensuring rights and inclusion of people with disabilities in society.

In Cox Bazar’s district, HI has a strong knowledge and experience in chronic emergency response. In addition to projects implemented before the crisis, HI is now providing services in rehabilitation, protection and PSS, with an inclusive mainstreaming approach to refugees and host population. HI works does not only with people with disabilities but also with their families, their communities, and the society, in order to provide sustainability in its action.

 

Emergency context and needs in Cox’s Bazar

A high proportion of the Undocumented Myanmar Nationals (UNM) refugees in Cox’s Bazar remain in a chronic emergency situation due to long-term challenges to find a durable solution to their status in Myanmar and Bangladesh and therefore require continuous humanitarian assistance. The new influx, with more than 600,000 arrivals from August 2017, has created even more pressure on resources and increasing humanitarian needs. The host Bangladeshi communities are also affected by the presence of a large refugee population living in the region. The two sub-districts of Ukhiya and Teknaf, where the refugees are mostly residing, are vulnerable due to increased rates of poverty and lack of public and private services, scarce job opportunities and limited natural resources, among other key causes. In addition, this coastal region is continuously dealing with the impacts of natural disasters, mostly cyclones and floods, during which meagre assets of the local population are also damaged or destroyed. The humanitarian needs resulting from the Mora’s devastating impact and the new arrivals of refugees have not been fully met yet, and the cyclone season is expected to start soon.

Under direct line management of the Myanmar Program Director and in close link with Bangladesh Program Director, Advocacy & Institutional Relations department and the HI Institute:

  • Ensure adequate positioning of HI promoting principled humanitarian action while addressing the needs resulting from the crisis in Rakhine State
