Description

Contexte

 

Enabel est en train d’élaborer un nouveau programme de coopération pour la Palestine. Celui-ci s’appuiera, d’une part, sur les succès de la coopération gouvernementale au cours de la dernière décennie et apportera, d’autre part, une réponse aux défis palestiniens et mondiaux à relever cette décennie.

 

La Coopération belge au développement appuie les Territoires palestiniens depuis 1993, à l’origine par le biais d’une coopération déléguée. La coopération gouvernementale directe a elle débuté en 1997 pour un montant de 15 millions d’euros et le quatrième et dernier accord, à titre provisoire (2011) a évolué pour atteindre quelque 71,6 millions d’euros (2012-2015). Ce programme a été prolongé en décembre 2020 avec un budget supplémentaire de 10 millions d’euros.

 

Le nouveau portefeuille est proposé pour une période de 5 ans (2022-2026). Sa signature est planifiée pour la fin décembre en vue d’entamer la mise en œuvre au tout début de 2022. Un budget indicatif de 70 millions d’euros est proposé pour le programme 2022-2026, qui continuera en partie à capitaliser les actuels projets.

 

Le nouveau portefeuille, qui a pour slogan « Autonomisation de la jeunesse dans une Palestine écologiquement durable », se concentrera sur deux piliers : d’une part, les jeunes et leur développement au sens large et, d’autre part, l’environnement, lui aussi au sens large. Ce faisant, le programme entend exploiter au maximum les perspectives d’avenir des jeunes, en termes de formation générale, d’éducation et d’emploi, en prêtant une grande attention à la dimension de genre et en se focalisant sur les plus vulnérables. Le programme veut de surcroît privilégier la durabilité, les solutions respectueuses de l’environnement, l’adaptation au changement climatique et l’atténuation de ses effets. 

 

Dans le cadre de l’élaboration de ce nouveau programme, nous recherchons un·e chef·fe de projet qui sera chargé·e d’appuyer la mise en œuvre du pilier « Environnement » du nouveau programme gouvernementale, dont l’objectif général sera que « le peuple palestinien bénéficie des opportunités d’un environnement de vie durable ».

 

 

Description de la fonction

 

Tâches principales du·de la chef·fe de projet en environnement :

 

  • vous êtes responsable de la bonne exécution des projets (contenu, planification, budget, qualité) afin d’atteindre des résultats de développement durable ;
  • vous coordonnez la réalisation des activités dans l’optique d’atteindre les objectifs des projets ;
  • vous soutenez les personnes désignées pour diriger le processus de changement ;
  • vous contribuez au renforcement des capacités de diverses organisations partenaires ;
  • vous coordonnez le processus d’apprentissage sur la manière dont une intervention contribue au développement du secteur ;
  • vous dirigez les équipes placées sous votre responsabilité hiérarchique ;
  • vous veillez à la disponibilité d’informations pertinentes sur les résultats à des fins de monitoring et d’évaluation en vue de permettre le suivi de la performance, la prise de décisions, l’apprentissage et le rapportage.

Description

Contexte

 

Enabel est en train d’élaborer un nouveau programme de coopération pour la Palestine. Celui-ci s’appuiera, d’une part, sur les succès de la coopération gouvernementale au cours de la dernière décennie et apportera, d’autre part, une réponse aux défis palestiniens et mondiaux à relever cette décennie.

 

La Coopération belge au développement appuie les Territoires palestiniens depuis 1993, à l’origine par le biais d’une coopération déléguée. La coopération gouvernementale directe a elle débuté en 1997 pour un montant de 15 millions d’euros et le quatrième et dernier accord, à titre provisoire (2011) a évolué pour atteindre quelque 71,6 millions d’euros (2012-2015). Ce programme a été prolongé en décembre 2020 avec un budget supplémentaire de 10 millions d’euros.

 

Le nouveau portefeuille est proposé pour une période de 5 ans (2022-2026). Sa signature est planifiée pour la fin décembre en vue d’entamer la mise en œuvre au tout début de 2022. Un budget indicatif de 70 millions d’euros est proposé pour le programme 2022-2026.

 

Le nouveau portefeuille, qui a pour slogan « Autonomisation de la jeunesse dans une Palestine écologiquement durable », se concentrera sur deux piliers : d’une part, les jeunes et leur développement au sens large et, d’autre part, l’environnement, lui aussi au sens large.  Ce faisant, le programme entend exploiter au maximum les perspectives d’avenir des jeunes, en termes de formation générale, d’éducation et d’emploi, en prêtant une grande attention à la dimension de genre et en se focalisant sur les plus vulnérables. Le programme veut de surcroît privilégier la durabilité, les solutions respectueuses de l’environnement, l’adaptation au changement climatique et l’atténuation de ses effets. 

 

Dans le cadre de l’élaboration de ce nouveau programme, nous recherchons un·e chef·fe de projet qui sera chargé·e d’appuyer la mise en œuvre du pilier « Autonomisation de la jeunesse » du nouveau programme gouvernementale, dont l’objectif général sera que « les jeunes de Palestine se transforment en citoyen·nes actif·ives et critiques, prêt·es à relever les défis locaux et mondiaux, grâce à l’amélioration de l’éducation, de la formation, de l’orientation et de l’accès au travail. »

 

 

Description de la fonction

 

Tâches principales du·de la chef·fe de projet en autonomisation de la jeunesse :

 

  • vous êtes responsable de la bonne exécution des projets (contenu, planification, budget, qualité) afin d’atteindre des résultats de développement durable ;
  • vous coordonnez la réalisation des activités dans l’optique d’atteindre les objectifs des projets ;
  • vous soutenez les personnes désignées pour diriger le processus de changement ;
  • vous contribuez au renforcement des capacités d’organisations partenaires ;
  • vous coordonnez le processus d’apprentissage sur la manière dont une intervention contribue au développement du secteur ;
  • vous dirigez les équipes placées sous votre responsabilité hiérarchique ;
  • vous veillez à la disponibilité d’informations pertinentes sur les résultats à des fins de monitoring et d’évaluation en vue de permettre le suivi de la performance, la prise de décisions, l’apprentissage et le rapportage.

Description

Essential Job Duties/Scope of Work:
International Medical Corps is a global humanitarian nonprofit organization dedicated to saving lives and relieving suffering through healthcare training and relief and development programs.
Established in 1984 by volunteer doctors and nurses, International Medical Corps is a private, voluntary, nonpolitical, nonsectarian organization. Its mission is to improve the quality of life through health interventions and related activities that build local capacity in areas worldwide. By offering training and healthcare to local populations and medical assistance to people at high risk, and with the flexibility to respond rapidly to emergency situations, International Medical Corps rehabilitates devastated healthcare systems and helps bring them back to self-reliance.
 
BACKGROUND:
After a period of relative calm following the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict, the security and political situation in Gaza deteriorated significantly in May 2021. Since mid-May, OHCHR has reported that 232 Palestinians, including 65 children and 39 women (of which 3 were pregnant), and 121 men have been killed in Gaza. Around 1,760 Palestinians have been injured, including 540 children, 361 women. The ongoing conflict situation has brought widespread devastation to an already impoverished territory and placed an additional burden on Gaza’s health infrastructure, which is already overwhelmed due to COVID-19. Utilizing internal and private donor funds, International Medical Corps has been working with local partners in Gaza to provide health, mental health, and nutrition services to vulnerable communities.
International Medical Corps is anticipating an award for a proposed 3-month emergency project to be funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development’s Bureau of Humanitarian Assistance (BHA). This project is anticipated to begin in early June 2021, with recruitments conditional on securing funding. Under this project, International Medical Corps intends to support a multi-sectoral package of interventions including:
  • healthcare services, including medicines and medical supplies;
  • mental health services, including psychological first aid, for victims of trauma;
  • emergency nutrition programming;
  • support for survivors of gender-based violence (GBV);
  • child protection and response activities; and
  • services to mitigate the spread of COVID-19.
