Background | ActionAid is responding to the humanitarian crises in Turkiye and Syria which has been classified as a Red Alert in the ActionAid Federation. The earthquake has further exacerbated the situation for the 4.2M people in northwest Syria that were already relying on humanitarian assistance and suffering the consequences of the 12-year war.
Building on ActionAid’s existing partnerships and alliances in Turkiye and Syria, we are supporting a local partner-led humanitarian response focusing on providing immediate humanitarian relief, shelter, food and NFIs, emergency medical care, psychosocial first aid and creating safe spaces for women and girls to prevent and protect against gender-based violence.
ActionAid Arab Region (AAAR) is leading this response on behalf of the Federation with ActionAid International Humanitarian and Resilience Team (IHART) in line with ActionAid’s internal emergency classification policy.
In line with ActionAid’s humanitarian signature, target groups include the most vulnerable people, women, girls and young people. | |||
Role Overview: | The main purpose of this role is to lead on ensuring the quality and accountability of ActionAid Arab Region interventions and programmes that are focused on advancing social justice, women rights, young people’s civic and political engagement and ending the protection risks faced by women and girls as a result of the protracted crisis in the region.
The PQMEAL Coordinator will bring significant experience and fresh ideas to lead on MEAL system implementation and will be responsible for designing and implementing monitoring and evaluation (M&E) plans, tools, Log frames, and systems for the organization’s programs. The postholder will lead efforts to ensure that program monitoring data is collected, analysed, and reported accurately and in a timely manner, and will ensure that the organization’s learning objectives are met, with program results and findings used to inform program decisions and continuous improvement.
The post holder will ensure that all ActionAid Arab Region and Partner projects are adequately supported to ensure quality, effectiveness and appropriateness of their programmes. It will be important for the post-holder to capture lessons learned and communicate this information in various capacities to improve on-going and future programming. S/he will guide ActionAid Arab Region and Partner teams to maintain an effective monitoring system across all programme areas, including the use of beneficiary feedback data, to assure the quality of interventions. The PQMEAL Coordinator will lead on building capacity of staff and partners on MEAL but particularly on accountability and participation, with a specific focus on women and young people.
Ultimately, the postholder will ensure that the programme has evidence-based knowledge to inform the direction of the programme from assessment and regular programme monitoring documents.
The postholder will assist in improving the coherence, quality, and impact of ActionAid Arab Region’s programmes and ensures that ActionAid Arab Region and our partners learns from good and innovative work through facilitating programme-focused learning processes and resources and creating links among ActionAid Arab Region’s working clusters. Special attention should be paid to the positive and negative impact that interventions have in communities, marginalised and disabled persons.
This analysis will need to be made available to all ActionAid staff and external stakeholders where appropriate. | |||
