The United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF Kenya 2022 – 2026 has prioritized four target groups who are at risk of being left behind: women and girls; children and youth, people living in urban informal settlements and people living in North-Eastern Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs). Mandera, Wajir and Garissa counties, key borderland counties within the ASALs, face multiple and interlinked socio-economic factors coupled with inter/intra clan conflicts and security challenges and compounded by longstanding marginalization and exclusion. The UN Kenya and the Office of the Deputy President are implementing a two-year project, on Promoting Peace and Inclusive Development in Borderland Counties in North-Eastern Kenya, targeting Mandera, Wajir and Garissa counties. The project will be jointly implemented by the UNDP, the WFP, the OHCHR and the Peace and Development Advisor in the UN Resident Coordinator’s Office.
The project will showcase a consultative and inclusive model involving national and county governments, civil society, communities, development partners and other stakeholders to collaboratively shape peace, human security and sustainable development initiatives that subsequently address the structural causes of conflicts in the target counties. The focus will be on inclusive governance, strengthening social accountability mechanisms at the local level, building trust between communities and security forces actors through Civil- Military Cooperation (CIMIC) and the implementation of micro ‘peace dividends’ livelihood projects. Further, the project will enhance collaboration, coordination and inclusivity amongst actors implementing projects under the larger North and Northeastern Development Initiative. Improved coordination of these initiatives will contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) Kenya 2022 – 2026 and strengthen avenues for meaningful participation of the communities in their planning and implementation to enhance Northeast Kenya’s development, prosperity, and long-term stability. The project is set to be catalytic, piloting a transformative model for community engagement and participation in human security and development initiatives and processes, thereby enhancing their effectiveness and sustainability. If this model is proven successful through this project, it can be scaled up through the interventions and investments of development partners deployed in borderland areas of Kenya.
Scope of Work
The Communications Intern will collaborate with and support the Project Manager and Knowledge Management and Comms Officer (KMCO) in implementing and enhancing communication strategies, outreach, and knowledge-sharing activities for the Promoting Peace and Inclusive Development Project in Northeastern Kenya.
