About the job
The International Rescue Committee (IRC) responds to the world’s worst humanitarian crises, helping to restore health, safety, education, economic wellbeing, and power to people devastated by conflict and disaster. Founded in 1933 at the call of Albert Einstein, the IRC is one of the world’s largest international humanitarian non-governmental organizations (INGO), at work in more than 40 countries and 29 U.S. cities helping people to survive, reclaim control of their future and strengthen their communities. A force for humanity, IRC employees deliver lasting impact by restoring safety, dignity and hope to millions. If you’re a solutions-driven, passionate change-maker, come join us in positively impacting the lives of millions of people world-wide for a better future.
Background of the project
Protection Case Management (PCM) is a social work approach that provides personalized support to people at high risk due to human rights violations or the additional challenges caused by forced displacement, conflict, or other humanitarian situations.
Humanitarian organizations are increasingly using PCM, but it lacks a standardized information management system (IMS). This leads to higher costs, inefficiencies, poor coordination, and data security risks, as each organization or country reinvents processes.
This project aims to develop and implement a PCM module in Primero, a digital platform designed for case management in humanitarian contexts. Primero is already used for Gender-Based Violence and Child Protection case management, making it familiar to practitioners. The module will be piloted in Ukraine and prepared for global use.
Scope of Work
Develop and draft initial training materials for facilitators to deliver in-person PCMIMS+ training during system rollouts. The training package will target front-line users, including caseworkers, supervisors, focal points, and project managers. These materials will serve as global resources, adaptable to various contexts and rollout environments.
