THE IRC GLOBALLY AND IN LIBERIA
Over 90 years ago, Albert Einstein helped create the International Rescue Committee (IRC). Today, we are a leading humanitarian and development organization working in more than 50 countries and 26 U.S. cities to help people whose lives and livelihoods are shattered by conflict and disaster to survive, recover, and gain control of their future.
The IRC has been present in Liberia since 1996, serving as a leading partner in the health sector and supporting the Ministry of Health (MOH) in strengthening the health care systems and service delivery at all levels following the MOH national standards. The IRC strives to make measurable progress in the Liberian people’s health, safety, and decision-making power of Liberian people. Currently, the IRC Liberia operates in Lofa, Bong, and the southeast (River Gee and Grand Kru) Counties. Since 1996, the organization has worked in 11 of 15 counties within Liberia, namely Montserrado, Lofa, Nimba, Bong, Grand Gedeh, Maryland, River Gee, Grand Bassa, Margibi, Bomi, and Grand Cape Mount.
Overview:
In August 2022, the IRC released a report outlining 25 years (1996 – 2021) of Humanitarian Accomplishment in Liberia, named “IRC LIBERIA A LEGACY OF HUMANITARIAN ACCOMPLISHMENTS“. IRC seeks to engage an external consultant to write the “Annex” of IRC Liberia’s 2021 – 2025 operational existence report (to be added as an ANNEX to the August 2022 Legacy Report). This person will serve as a senior-level professional consultant in writing the IRC Liberia operational existence reports for the last four years and will be supported by the Liberia Senior Management Team (SMT) and headquarters colleagues.
The Consultant will work closely with the Grants, Programs, and other departments as required. The Consultant-Report Writer will work on-site and remotely and travel to field offices where appropriate. The Consultant will also collaborate closely with IRC’s HQ Communications team to ensure branding aligns with IRC’s global policy.
The specific tasks of the Consultant will comprise the following responsibilities and deliverables:
