ICVA Website Developer and Designer Jobs in Kenya


Background

About ICVA:

Founded in 1962, ICVA (International Council of Voluntary Agencies) is a global network of nongovernmental organisations (NGOs) whose mission is to make humanitarian action more principled and effective by working collectively and independently to influence policy and practice.

Based on its 2015-2018 Strategy, ICVA promotes and facilitates NGO engagement in the
development of humanitarian sector, with a focus on Forced Displacement, Humanitarian
Coordination, Humanitarian Financing, and Humanitarian Partnership.

About NGOcoordination website

  • The ngocoordination.org website aims to be a ‘one-stop shop’ for NGO coordination in humanitarian contexts.
  • It is separate from the main ICVA website
  • The end objective of the site is to help improve humanitarian preparedness and response by increasing the effectiveness of NGO coordination in humanitarian contexts and their links with other humanitarian coordination mechanisms. It also supports practitioners in the field of NGO coordination by offering easy access to resources and learning opportunities.
  • The website is meant to be an interactive and user-friendly resource center, or document library, where NGOs can find practical guidance, case studies, best practices, etc.
  • Site users also have the possibility of submitting content that might be useful to all.
  • It was launched in 2015 in response to demand to make documentation on NGO coordination more easily available and to build a community of practice around NGO coordination.
  • After three years, the website does not meet the needs of NGOs and NGO fora. Its navigation is not user-friendly and engaging, and it lacks interaction capabilities.
  • Therefore, ICVA wishes to revamp this resource center, gathering views and ideas from
    members, and develop a new design for the website.
  • The NGOcoordination website is on a Drupal platform, and is currently hosted in Canada with the main ICVA website.
