COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION

DEPARTMENT PURPOSE: Oxfam is a global movement of people who won’t live with the injustice of poverty. Together we save and rebuild lives in disasters. We help people build better lives for themselves. We speak out on the big issues that keep people poor, like inequality, discrimination against women and climate change. And we won’t stop until every person on the planet can live without poverty.

Oxfam GB is a member of the international confederation Oxfam.

TEAM PURPOSE: Oxfam in Lebanon is increasingly working at local, national and international levels to “ensure that women and men are protected and empowered to enjoy their basic rights and access services enabling them to live in dignity, within a more equitable society.” To achieve this vision, Oxfam in Lebanon implements activities under three main programmatic pillars: humanitarian, Citizenship, Governance and Economic Justice, and the Beirut Response Pillar.

The purpose of the humanitarian pillar is to ensure that marginalised women and men, including refugees from Syria and Lebanese, are able to have safe access to WASH, attain their rights to life, security, protection and assistance, and that they are enabled to support their own basic needs, develop their livelihoods, all in a manner that respects and maintains their dignity.

JOB PURPOSE: The purpose of the Project Assistant for TCA is to support the team in identification of cases eligible for cash assistance, ensuring proper follow-up with beneficiaries and their families, coordinating with partners, Social Development Centres (SDC) and with service providers (e.g Liban Post), and to ensure accurate documentation of cash assistance, all in the framework of donor funded cash and protection projects in Tripoli.
