Consultant to work on Protection in UN Mission Transitions and Withdrawals
Norwegian Refugee Council
UN peace operations play a critical role in promoting the protection of civilians in conflict zones. In recent years, however, a number of missions have closed despite continuing violence and threats to civilians. These experiences have highlighted the importance of anticipating and understanding the implications of mission transitions for capacities to protect civilians and their human rights, and the need to identify if and how remaining protection risks can be mitigated. Recognizing the need for this analysis, the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), the Center for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC), and the Global Protection Cluster (GPC) are seeking a consultant to collaborate on producing analysis that helps their teams to engage in dialogue, operational planning, and decision-making on these issues. * Objectives and scope of workBuilding on existing analysis and complemented by new key informant interviews and desk research, the consultant will produce a paper that analyses the implications of UN mission drawdowns and withdrawals on capacities to protect civilians and their human rights, and that offers concrete considerations for if and how residual protection risks and needs can be addressed in contexts of future transitions. The paper will aim to be a resource for actors at country-level (e.g. humanitarian leadership structures, Protection Cluster Coordinators, and operational UN and NGO staff) as well as policymakers and other actors at global level who may be engaging on these issues in the diplomatic or institutional space.2.1. Major tasks and responsibilitiesThe consultant will carry out the tasks listed below:
3. Institutional and organizational arrangementsThe consultancy will be managed by NRC, in close collaboration with CIVIC and the GPC working as a core team.

Deliverables and timelinesNRC has tentatively allocated 20 days for this project, to be adjusted depending on the daily rate of the consultant. The following deliverables are expected:
The final report needs to be received no later than mid-April 2025.5. Qualifications and competenciesThe consultancy must be a registered company or a sole trader, and provide proof of registration in the country where the consultant is based.5.1 Experience, qualifications, and competencies:
