iMMAP Publication Officer - iMMAP COVID Response Jobs in Nigeria
BackgroundThe outbreak of COVID-19 brought about unprecedented change to the way governments, institutions, and people do business globally including Nigeria, where the first case was reported on the 27th of February 2020.
Late 2019, the situation in northeast Nigeria was already fragile with an estimated 7.9 million people in need of humanitarian assistance due to the protracted conflict.
The COVID-19 outbreak and imposed movement restrictions including on trade, added the brunt of an additional one third - within a couple of months - to the people in need reaching 10.6 million.
The humanitarian community is required to maintain the presence and increase reach in the northeast while access to updated and disaggregated information became more challenging.
Therefore, actors will relay further on the use of secondary data and remote data collection methods.
In collaboration with OCHA, this project aims to support the humanitarian sectors in northeast Nigeria with information management services including the establishment of continuous screening/ update of Secondary Data Review (SDR) repository, technical backstopping to sectors’ Information Management and for monthly situation analysis.
This project will support a global project involving 6 countries.
