Mission
Geneva Call is a neutral, impartial and independent international humanitarian organization dedicated to promoting international humanitarian standards and protecting civilians in conflict situations.
Present in Burkina Faso since 2021 with one-off activities in Niger, Geneva Call works with communities, civil society organizations and all relevant actors whose behavior can contribute to improving the protection of civilians. After a series of exchanges with the Nigerien authorities in 2022 and 2023, and the holding of one-off activities in Niamey, Tahoua and Tillabery, Geneva Call plans to recruit a Consultant for a prospecting process in Niger.
This consultation should lead to a proposal for intervention by Geneva Call in Niger. It will establish a map of the most relevant state and non-state actors to engage for a better understanding and adherence of the Nigerien authorities to the approach of the Geneva Call. It will also allow for a better understanding of the context and the central Sahel region.
