The Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) is an independent, international humanitarian organisation providing protection and assistance to displaced and crisis-affected populations in over 40 countries. As part of its Global Strategy (2022–2026), NRC has committed—under Strategic Objective 1 (Programme Quality, Accountability and Learning)—to institutionalise high-quality, safe, and accountable programming across all Country Offices.
NRC’s One Response initiative is a central component of this effort. One Response aims to harmonise programme design tools and approaches across the organisation, ensure responses are needs-based and barrier-focused, enable integrated programming, and strengthen the link between risk analysis, targeting, protection, and programme outcomes. Significant progress has been made in consolidating the One Response Design Process.
This assignment focuses on supporting the roll-out and consolidation of the remaining elements of One Response and Programme Quality, including Emergency Response alignment, Programme Compliance, Minimum Requirements across Core Competencies, and needs/barriers assessment guidance.
