The Operational Context may contain additional essential and/or desirable qualifications relating to the specific operation and/or position. Any such requirements are incorporated by reference in this Job Description and will be considered for the screening shortlisting and selection of candidates. Desired Candidate Profile OPERATIONAL CONTEXT In Honduras people are directly affected by the growing activity and reach of organised crime and the social control they exert over communities and territories. Honduras currently registers one of the highest numbers of criminal groups on record operating in the country most of which are located in urban areas of Tegucigalpa San Pedro Sula and La Ceiba exercising territorial control over numerous neighbourhoods. These groups are the main perpetrators of violence which they utilise as a means to exert and maintain the territorial and socioeconomic control of communities and territories. The violence itself or the threat thereof manifest in different forms but particularly through forced displacement GBV and recruitment of children and adolescents. This situation has created the conditions for the internal displacement of more than 247000 people and more than 54000 asylum applications filed by Honduran nationals globally in 2020. In addition the reconfiguration of mixed migration routes and the geographical position of Honduras have increased the continuous movement of people in transit to the north including refugees. Displaced women and children and those at risk of displacement face greater protection risks such as human trafficking forced recruitment and gender-based violence (GBV). Honduras is one of the most violent countries for women girls and LGBTIQ+ people. The femicide rate of 6.2 per 100000 women is the highest in Latin America. A woman or girl is murdered every 27 hours in Honduras while 86 per cent of the more than 3400 reports of sexual violence in 2019 were girls and adolescents between 0 and 19 years old. The limited Government capacity in providing responses and solutions to internally displaced populations and those at-risk of displacement has contributed to further aggravate a general distrust on public institutions particularly among vulnerable groups in high-risk areas. The distrust on public institutions impact the capacity of the Government to address the needs of vulnerable groups including IDPs and to effectively promote social policies design to address gender inequality and promote human rights. Therefore strengthening state capacity reconnecting and rebuilding trust between communities and state institutions is key to not only address internal displacement but to help the government of Honduras to achieve its sustainable development goals. Due to the above it would be desirable that the candidate has the following skills: Child Protection; Gender-Based Violence prevention and response; Gender equality; Psychosocial Support; PSEA - would be an asset IDP protection and response; GBV Case management; GBV Capacity Development; Working with authorities partners and local organisations on prevention response and solutions for IDPs.
