The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world’s largest humanitarian organization, with a network of 191-member National Societies (NSs). The overall aim of the IFRC is “to inspire, encourage, facilitate, and promote at all times all forms of humanitarian activities by NSs 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.
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.
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 five regional offices in Africa, Asia Pacific, Middle East and North Africa, Europe, and the Americas. IFRC also has country cluster delegation and country delegations throughout the world. Together, the Geneva Headquarters and the field structure (regional, cluster and country) comprise the IFRC Secretariat.
IFRC has a zero-tolerance policy on conduct that is incompatible with the aims and objectives of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, including sexual exploitation and abuse, sexual harassment and other forms of harassment, abuse of authority, discrimination, and lack of integrity (including but not limited to financial misconduct). IFRC also adheres to strict child safeguarding principles.
Information Management (IM) for the IFRC is the collection, management, analysis and dissemination of data and information to support decision-making.
The Information Management team works collaboratively with Regional and Country level counterparts to: i) manage an inclusive local-to-global IFRC wide response system, built upon Movement learning, informed by industry best practices, and equipped for the future; ii) deliver innovation in managing information – more timely and comprehensive data collation and analysis for IFRC operational and strategic decision making; iii) ensure evidence based analysis of risks and capacities that supports better preparedness and more integrated, multi-sectoral, holistic approaches to response and recovery; iv) profile the work of the IFRC across the preparedness – response – recovery continuum – highlighting the value added of the IFRC for strengthening resilience; v) expand DREF access to more of the most vulnerable communities and in response to the many small, silent and forgotten disasters; vi) deliver more transparency in procedures and in decision making including through clear agreed SOPs; and vii) instil an IM culture in the IFRC – disseminating why information is needed, how it is used and the value of unique RCRC data and analysis.
The primary focus of the internship is to support the IM team in the development of the GO platform, (go.ifrc.org). This will include development and execution of data cleaning and consolidation processes and user support, user feedback logging and analysis.
The IFRC is looking for an intern that will support the Information Management team responsible for supporting work related to the GO platform. The key tasks of the intern will be:
