International Staff : 6 (July 2012)
Areas : 2 (Erbil, Kut)
On-going programmes: 2
Bugdet : about 3 M (2011)
ACTED began work in Iraq in 2003. ACTED has one base in southern Iraq in Kut and in 2007 opened a base in Erbil to better respond to IDP needs in the Kurdistan region. ACTED originally focused on improving the health, water and sanitation conditions of vulnerable populations in southern Iraq, but the deteriorating security situation and drastic increase in the number of displaced people have resulted in a new focus on meeting IDP and host community needs, based on the experience in IDP camps in Lebanon. The ACTED Iraq national team includes around 100 people who implement multi-sector emergency relief projects including WATSAN activities, gender based violence awareness, health promotion, economic rehabilitation, food security, and distribution of basic relief commodities.
Supporting long-term impacts through sustainable livelihoods and support to local civil society - For ACTED Iraq, 2011 was a year of transition from emergency relief and rehabilitation to development. To support the slow march towards peace and stability, ACTED implemented a dynamic range of programming from the distribution of basic necessities to internally displaced families to apprenticeship programs, gender-based violence awareness and capacity building of local authorities and Iraqi civil society.
In 2011, ACTED partnered with an Iraqi NGO for the first time in order to jointly implement a project providing assistance to Iraq s displaced populations. Moving forward, ACTED will prioritise partnership with local Iraqi NGOs to better deliver assistance through their detailed knowledge of and experience with target communities, build the capacity of Iraq s civil society and move toward increasingly sustainable and longer-term interventions**.**

Close×Iraq: IDP Researcher - Consultancy PostClosing date: 2015-06-25Application : Apply for the jobOrganization: Minority Rights GroupCountry: Iraq, World
Closing date: 25 Jun 2015
Research aim
The Ceasefire Project is a 3-year action mainly funded by the European Union to implement a system of civilian-led monitoring of human rights abuses in Iraq, focusing in particular on the rights of vulnerable civilians including vulnerable women (such as those fleeing violence), internally-displaced persons (IDPs), stateless persons, and ethnic/religious minorities, and to assess the feasibility of extending civilian-led monitoring to other country situations.
As part of its Ceasefire Project on Protecting the Rights of Vulnerable Civilians in Iraq, Minority Rights Group International (MRG) seeks to recruit a researcher, on a consultancy basis, to investigate and gather information on the situation of internally displaced persons in Iraq and prepare a written report based on the findings. The researcher will work under the supervision of the Civilian Rights Officer.
The research, including a research mission to Iraq, will provide the core information for a comprehensive MRG published report of approximately 10,000 words, focusing on the situation of IDPs in Iraq and their rights. Accordingly, the researcher's written report on his/her findings should be around 8000-10,000 words in English or Arabic. The final publication will be edited and published by the end of the year in English and Arabic and disseminated widely by MRG.
The researcher will collect data on both minority and majority groups and individuals, including community groups, as well as other particularly vulnerable civilians such as women. Research will include the collection of narratives of experiences and case studies.
The research will be based on IDPs across as a whole with a special focus on internally displaced people that are more difficult to reach or that are residing in areas less concentrated on by the media and/or international community. Preference will be given to research which focuses on displaced persons from Anbar and IDPs living in the central and southern governorates of Iraq, including Najaf and Karbala. Specific consideration of gender issues in relation to treatment of displaced women, including violence against women perspectives and abuses against children, will also be included in the research. Research will include relevant historical, political and legal background frameworks relevant to the displacement situation.
Funding available and contractual considerationsThis research is part of a 3 year European Commission-funded project. The report is one of 9 publications of the project and will be followed by strategic advocacy, promotion and capacity-building activities over the duration of the project, in which the researchers could subsequently be invited to participate.
We have a budget of up to 12,500 Euros for the research and compilation of high quality, verified, up-to-date and well presented information. This budget will cover consultancy fees, all travel, and accommodation and field expenses.
Ideally the researcher would already be based in the region to enable frequent travel for interviews and to gather testimonies. The researcher may be based outside of Iraq but international travel to the region will be necessary. Payment procedures are fixed within the timescale of the project and in accordance to Minority Rights Group internal policies and contractual procedures.
Outputs and outcomesWe require the following consultant's reports and activities:
Construct an outline delivery plan.Carry out significant field and desk research during Aug-Sep 2015, with travel to and/or within Iraq during this period, in line with the outline delivery plan and agreement with MRG.Consultants will produce a detailed written report in English or Arabic (including relevant testimony case studies and field data/findings) to MRG on the research findings by 29 October 2015.Issues and methodologyMRG does not wish to be prescriptive in terms of methodology which will depend partly on conditions in Iraq. The research will predominantly consist of field research, with some desk research.
The research will be supervised by a Civilian Rights Officer and supported by MRG Project Manager.

Programme/Project title:Provision of Primary Health Care Services to Internally Displaced Persons in Dohuk Governorate, Kurdistan Region of Iraq.
Background
In August 2014 thousands of people were displaced due to conflict from Sinjar to Dohuk governorate in Kurdistan. In order to accommodate these IDPs the government of Kurdistan built a number of camps including Shariya camp which was completed in November 2014 with the capacity to hold 24,000 individuals. In the initial 2 weeks following the opening of the camp a WHO supported mobile medical team provided primary healthcare but since December 2nd2014 Medair has provided primary healthcare services from a temporary clinic facility within Shariya camp.
Initially providing outpatient based services for 8 hours daily the clinic has expanded to include reproductive healthcare (focusing on antenatal and postnatal care and family planning with referral of women for delivery in Domiz camp or Duhok city) and 24 hour nursing coverage.
A community based health and nutrition education and screening programme started in January 2015 with a group of 20 Community Health Volunteers providing education on key health, nutrition and hygiene messages including IYCF.
A baseline Health Survey by MSF (Health Assessment Project) with data collected in December 2014 showed that IDPs living in camp settings in Duhok (including but not exclusively Shariya camp) showed deficiencies in access to care for paediatric respiratory and diarrhoeal diseases as well as reproductive health services[WD1].
Purpose of the Survey
Medair requires a representative Knowledge, Practice and Coverage (KPC) household survey measuring standardized health and nutrition indicators via Lot Quality Assurance Sampling (LQAS) or randomised sampling to assess the current health and nutrition related knowledge, practices and service coverage of the population of Shariya camp. The purpose of the survey is to provide robust data in order to assess the current public health situation in the camp as well as evaluate both the current primary healthcare services and community health education programme in order to guide decisions regarding future programme priorities.
Objective
The objective of the survey is to gather representative information from Shariya camp households, to provide data on key health and nutrition related indicators at the household level, including the following areas:
Infant and young child feeding practices.Health-seeking behaviour of caregivers of children under 5 yrs.Knowledge and practice of key health and nutrition promoting behaviours.Coverage of primary health care and community health education programmes.Knowledge of gender based violence issues and access to services.Access to and utilisation of reproductive health services.The detailed indicator list will be agreed at the start of the consultancy period.
