Venezuela’s social, political, and economic crisis has triggered rapid mass migration. And the north region Brazil is among the main destination countries of this recent wave of migration. Since 2018 the main point of entry for Venezuelans into Brazil is in the northern region of Brazil. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) in Brazil is implementing various projects addressing the protection, assistance, and integration needs of migrants, refugees, and other vulnerable populations in Brazil. IOM recognizes the importance of accurate and timely information to foster adequate programming and ensure accountability to affected population, donors, and governments. In this context, different groups with specific needs such as children, women, indigenous peoples, people with mental health conditions and people with disabilities, are facing even more difficulties to access basic services and are exposed to more risks of exploitation, abuse, and violence. In light of this scenario, IOM continue supporting the extremely vulnerable refugees and migrants Venezuelans in Acre, especially those in risk of human trafficking, children and adolescents, and women and girls victims of gender-based violence. Under the overall supervision of IOM Brazil Chief of Mission, the overall supervision of the Programming Coordinator National Officer of Roraima and the direct supervision of State Coordinator of Acre and the Protection Coordinator in Boa Vista, Roraima, the consultant will be responsible for supporting IOM protection activities through the implementation of the activities below mentioned in the state of Acre.
