Head of Capacity Strengthening and Policy Coherence, A.I is needed at the United Nations World Food Programme
JOB TITLE: Head of Capacity Strengthening and Policy Coherence, A.I.
LOCATION: Abuja, Nigeria
Type of Contract: TDY/CST (maternity cover)
Unit/Division: Capacity Strengthening and Policy Coherence Unit, Nigeria Country Office
Duration: 4 – 6 months initially (August 2020 – January 2021)
Country Context
- Since 2009, an insurgency led by non-state armed groups and military operations conducted by the Government of Nigeria have had a devastating impact on northeast Nigeria, especially in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe (BAY states) which led WFP to respond with a large-scale L3 operation in this part of the country.
- However, food insecurity and malnutrition are not just of concern in the northeast. In fact, Nigeria is experiencing high levels of chronic food insecurity and malnutrition across the country and achieving SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) by 2030 would require countrywide efforts. The need for support has only increased as a result of the additional strain that COVID-19 has put on people’s food securty and nutrition situation.
