GBV / VAWG PSEA/ Safeguarding

Background

The protection environment is fragile, and Sexual Exploitation, Abuse, and Harassment (SEAH) remain a critical concern in the country. Nigeria ranks 8th in Africa for SEA risk according to the most recent Sexual Exploitation and Abuse Risk Overview (SEARO). WHO’s annual comprehensive SEAH risk assessment consistently in the last three years rates the residual risk of SEAH in Nigeria as severe. Beyond the humanitarian response in the north-east, the complex security and development challenges, persistent public health emergencies among others continue to present predisposing factors and safeguarding challenges. The results of the 2025 Annual Survey on Facts and Perceptions of UN personnel related to Prevention of Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (PSEA) showed that, despite progress in awareness and training, significant gaps persist: misconceptions about PSEA standards, declining confidence in leadership commitment, and a critical trust deficit in reporting mechanisms—only 26% of those aware of SEA incidents report them due to fear of retaliation.

Position Purpose

The Inter-Agency PSEAH Coordinator provides advice and strategic support to PSEAH leadership in-country and will report directly to the Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator (RC-HC) with matrix reporting to the UNDP Resident Representative. The PSEAH Coordinator aims to reinforce leadership, programmes, capacity, and localization and resource mobilization strategies that ensure the centrality of PSEAH in the humanitarian operations and Sustainable Development Country Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF). The presence of the Inter-Agency PSEAH Coordinator does not lessen the responsibility of individual organizations to develop and/or strengthen their own PSEAH programs; final accountability for institutional and collective PSEAH lies in Heads of Offices and the RC-HC respectively.

Required Skills and Experience

Advanced university degree (master's degree or equivalent) in Social Work, Public Health, Gender Studies, Law, Human Rights, Humanitarian Studies, International Relations, and/or other related Social Science discipline is required. Or
A first-level university degree (bachelor’s degree) in the areas stated above, in combination with an additional two years of qualifying experience will be given due consideration in lieu of the advanced university degree.
Minimum of 5 years (with master’s degree) or 7 years (With bachelor’s degree) of professional experience in Prevention of Sexual Exploitation, Abuse and Harassment (PSEAH), Accountability to Affected Populations (AAP), Protection, Human Rights, and/or Gender-Based Violence.
