Job Description
 

1.         Position Information

 

Office: UNDP Cameroon/Regional Stabilization Facility for the Lac Chad basin – Cameroon National Window Project

TITLE: Adminsitrative and Finance Associate

 

2-Office/Unit/Project Description (max 300 words)

 

Briefly describe the office/unit/project structure and context
For several years, UNDP, with the support of various donors, Japan, Germany, Sweden and the European Union, has made early recovery and stabilisation within communities hard hit by the crisis a priority.

More recently, UNDP has committed to the implementation of the regional stabilisation strategy, adopted in May 2018 by the States Parties of the LCBC and endorsed by the African Union.

In order to implement this strategy, UNDP has proposed a regional facilitation programme to the concerned states, which was officially launched at the second governors' forum held on 17 July in Niamey. On 7 October 2019, Cameroon held a Steering Committee meeting on the National Stabilisation Window, which is a variation of the regional stabilisation project.

The socio-economic situation and the endemic unemployment of youth and women in the intervention zones call for immediate interventions to consolidate the trend of return and the setting in orbit of an irreversible stabilisation. The implementation of such immediate actions requires within the National Stabilisation Window team the presence of an Information technology, Database and GIS Assistant who will work under the supervision of the Project Coordinator in collaboration with the whole team based in Maroua and Yaounde as well as with colleagues from other projects.

 

Rationale / background and the objectives of the unit or project
