Job Overview

The International Rescue Committee responds to the world’s worst humanitarian crises and helps people to survive and rebuild their lives.

CONTEXTUAL BACKGROUND

The humanitarian situation in Libya has deteriorated since the 2014 civil war.

In September 2016, the IRC launched an emergency program in Misrata, Libya that provided medical care, medicines, and medical supplies in hospitals and primary health care centers (PHCCs). Since then, the IRC has expanded its programming to also include the provision of GBV prevention and response services and protection monitoring. The IRC’s programming has also been further expanded to Sirte and Tripoli. The IRC envisages a humanitarian program in Libya targeting refugees, migrants and other war affected populations, with interventions designed to save lives and relieve humanitarian suffering, with a focus on health care and protection services.
