Organizational Context

The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world’s largest humanitarian organization, with a network of 192-member National Societies. The overall aim of the IFRC is “to inspire, encourage, facilitate, and promote at all times all forms of humanitarian activities by National Societies with a view to preventing and alleviating human suffering and thereby contributing to the maintenance and promotion of human dignity and peace in the world.” The IFRC works to meet the needs and improve the lives of vulnerable people before, during and after disasters, health emergencies and other crises. The IFRC is part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (Movement), together with its member National Societies and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). The work of the IFRC is guided by the following fundamental principles: humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity, and universality. The IFRC is led by its Secretary General, and has its Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. The Headquarters are organized into three main Divisions: (i) National Society Development and Operations Coordination; (ii) Global Relations, Humanitarian Diplomacy and Digitalization; and (iii) Management Policy, Strategy and Corporate Services. IFRC has been actively responding to the outbreak by focusing on both preparedness and response. The IFRC has launched a global appeal that focuses on preparedness and response across all regions. Lebanon is in the midst of three mega-crises: the economic crisis; the COVID-19 pandemic; and the aftermath of the Port of Beirut explosion. The crippling economic crisis starting in October 2019 has greatly constrained the health system's ability to provide accessible and affordable health services. The August 2020 Port of Beirut explosion damaged 292 health facilities and significantly reduced access to care, especially for the vulnerable. The Government of Lebanon (GOL) with the support of the World Bank (WB) and other partners has lunch a national COVID-19 vaccine campaign, seeking to vaccinate 80 percent of the total population by the end of 2022. The NDVP covers the vaccination of both citizens and non-citizens, regardless of their status as long as residing on the Lebanese territory. In line with the WHO Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization (SAGE) Allocation Framework, Lebanon NDVP prioritizes high risk populations through 4 phase approach. In collaboration between World back and IFRC , IFRC Lebanon will lead on Third-Party Monitoring (TPM) to assure all the elements of COVID-19 vaccination, including but not limited to storage, stock and temperature maintenance across the supply chain, service delivery at vaccination sites, eligibility of vaccine recipients and capturing client perspectives and feedback.
