Description de la mission
The main responsibilities of the Sexual Violence Program Activity Manager include the following:
Lead, develop, and support the mission’s SV–IPV strategies, protocols, and response activities, ensuring they align with evolving medical needs and the changing operational context.
Develop an SV/IPV strategy for the mission, with a strong CRSV focus, based on assessed needs and gaps.
Lead the integration, coordination, and quality improvement of Conflict-Related Sexual Violence (CRSV) services within the PTSD program in Vinnytsia, addressing known barriers to identification and disclosure with focus on strengthening clinical capacity, ensuring survivor-centered care, and supporting multidisciplinary collaboration among psychologists, social workers, medical doctors, and health promoters.
Contribute to the development or revision of CRSV-related SOPs, guidelines and clinical tools.
Integrate CRSV-specific screening tools, treatment protocols and clinical pathways into routine PTSD services including support for identifying delayed, indirect, or non-verbal disclosures.
Strengthen internal referral pathways for CRSV-survivors and ensure clear, confidential information-sharing procedures.
Conduct reminder sessions on MSF medical legal understanding for medical certificates, reporting issues, child and adolescent issues on SV and IPV care. Enhance understanding of SAC as it relates to SV/IPV care.
Support outreach strategies to increase safe access to services for survivors, particularly for populations at higher risk of under-disclosure, including veterans, ex-POWs, families of POWs or missing persons, adolescents, and male survivors.
Guide health promotion teams in safe CRSV community sensitization strategies, including stigma reduction, survivor-centered messaging, and referral awareness activities. Maintain updated mapping of external services and strengthen referral pathways with external medical, psychosocial, protection and legal services with attention to confidentiality, survivor safety, and continuity of care.
Participate in relevant GBV/CRSV and protection forums/working groups/meetings.
Support documentation of lessons learned, and best practices adapted to the PTSD program including analysis of barriers to disclosure and access.
Train identified SV care providers in Vinnytsia, with particular attention to attitudes, values, and communication skills relevant to conflict-related sexual violence, if this need arises during your time in the project.
Depending on our activities and needs, your responsibilities may be adapted and evolve according to the specificities of each project.
You will not be facing these challenges alone—other MSF team members, both international and locally hired staff, will provide technical support, including extensive guidelines and protocols.
