We are currently looking for an Assessment Officer to support our team in the Global ABA, DRR and AGORA Unit.
The HQ ABA, DRR and AGORA Unit is in charge of developing normative guidance and standardizing research tools for all relevant assessments, including REACH relief and recovery ABAs, localized risk and climate change-related assessments, and AGORA. The Unit has launched the development of 3 global toolkits: i) The global ABA toolkit, ii) The global Area-based risk assessment toolkit, iii) The Global AGORA toolbox, under the leadership of ACTED. Each toolkit comprises a set of qualitative tools, (some common to all toolkits, some specific).
