BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT:

WFP and UNHCR have a longstanding partnership underpinned by various global commitments, agreements, strategies, and principles on increased interagency collaboration to better meet the essential needs of refugees (and other persons of concern) and promote self-reliance. Despite existing frameworks in a variety of areas, awareness and sufficient capacity to operationalize collaboration at country level remains a challenge. The Joint UNHCR-WFP Programme Excellence and Targeting Hub (the ‘Joint Hub’) was established in April 2020 to strengthen joint programming and targeting practices to better meet basic needs, promote refugee self-reliance and strengthen operational links and collaboration for an effective nexus approach.

The Joint Hub is covering selected phases of the programme cycle: i) Joint situation and context analysis, ii) targeting and prioritization, iii) accountability to affected populations (AAP), iv) integrated programme design, v) data sharing and interoperability, and v) monitoring, learning and feedback.

Through a joint team of roving experts, and in collaboration with and in support of UNHCR and WFP’s technical teams in HQ, Regional Bureaus (RBs) and Country Offices (COs), the Joint Hub has to date providing dedicated support to some 20 countries and regional bureaus with others coming online on a rolling basis.

In December 2023, the Joint Hub confirmed its support through a signed Scope of Work (SoW) with WFP and UNHCR country offices in Kenya with a set of deliverables expected in 2024.
