Mission and objectives
The Office of the UNHCR was established on 14 December 1950 by the UN General Assembly. The agency is mandated to lead and co-ordinate international action to protect refugees and resolve refugee problems worldwide. Its primary purpose is to safeguard the rights and well-being of refugees. It strives to ensure that everyone can exercise the right to seek asylum and find safe refuge in another State, with the option to return home voluntarily, integrate locally or to resettle in a third country (www.unhcr.org).
Context
The East and Horn of Africa has long been centre stage for conflict and forced displacement with Kenya currently hosting 676, 332 refugees and asylum-seekers. Established in 1991and situated in Garissa County, the Dadaab Refugee camps are now home to 373,256 individuals (76, 540 households). Somali refugees are the majority, representing more than 96% of the population. Figures as of October 2023. Refugees and asylum-seekers have been living in extremely challenging conditions for more than three decades. Between March 2022 and April 2023, a total of 135,967 individuals/31,432 households of new arrivals were profiled with 70,451 individuals/16,487 households profiled pending registration. Positive steps are being taken. The Garissa Integrated Socio-Economic Development Plan (GISEDP) launched on 28 September 2023 and the Shirika Plan will be launched in December 2023. These are pioneering approaches, led by the Government of Kenya and will benefit refugees and asylum-seekers and host communities alike, transitioning from refugee camps to integrated settlements.

Other information
Living conditions and remarks
Dadaab town is in the North-Eastern Province of Kenya. It is in a semi-arid area and is mostly dry and hot all year round with some rains during specific periods. Due to the isolation of the duty station and ongoing security concerns, the duty station is categorized as hardship category ‘E and substantial security level. The UN compound is surrounded by Hesco fences, and there is a curfew in place from 6 pm to 6 am, when the external gate is closed. All movements outside the UN compound to and within the refugee camps requires armed police escort. To mitigate the effects of hardship and psychosocial stress and to allow reunion with family members, the International recruited personnel are granted 5 consecutive calendar days of Rest and Recuperation after every 6 weeks plus actual travel time. Banking facilities are available through a local bank, such as Equity Bank and ATMs are also operational in Dadaab town in which staff may open an account and withdraw cash with certain debit/credit cards. Internet and communications networks are available at the compound. Remoteness, isolation and lack of entertainment in social life are the factors to also be considered prior to applying. There is, however, a gym and a tennis court available, as well as space around the compound for exercising. Security Considerations: The security situation continues to be a challenge in Sub Office Dadaab, and the candidate needs to undergone proper security training including the mandatoty SSAFE training. Meanwhile, staff movements in the Dadaab Operation are restricted, and all staff are obliged to adhere to security advisories. Staying in the office compound is regulated by a curfew in effect during the night and the requirement to answer daily radio checks. Dadaab is at UN security level (SLS) 4 as a duty station. Kenya is a unique country and UNHCR is a unique (humanitarian) operation. It provides for an interesting and enriching environment, but also requires a mature level of cultural awareness, as well as more stamina and commitment than elsewhere to make life comfortable and affordable. Therefore, flexibility and the ability and willingness to live and work in harsh and potentially hazardous conditions, involving physical hardship and little comfort, are essential.
