ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXT<\/h2>\n

The Global Network Against Food Crises (GNAFC) was launched at the 2016 World Humanitarian Summit by the European Union, FAO and WFP with the objective of tackling the root causes of food crises and promoting sustainable solutions through shared analysis and knowledge and strengthened coordination in evidence-based responses. One of the foundational principles of the GNAFC is that responses in food crises need to address immediate humanitarian needs, link the short-term interventions with a medium to long-term vision, and invest in targeted development assistance to reduce needs, risks and vulnerability as well as in early preparedness and anticipatory actions.<\/p>\n

The GNAFC operates at the national, regional and global levels along three interlinked dimensions (3×3 approach):<\/p>\n

\n
1. Understanding food crises \u2013 Generating evidence-based information and analysis.<\/li>\n
2. Strategic Investment in food and nutrition security \u2013 Leveraging strategic investments to prepare, prevent and respond to food crises.<\/li>\n
3. Going beyond food \u2013 Fostering political uptake and functional coordination across clusters\/sectors to address other dimensions driving the food security crisis scenarios.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

   JOB PURPOSE<\/h2>\n

   The vision of the GNAFC is to prepare and respond to food crises and support the collective outcome related to Ending Hunger (SDG 2); reducing needs, risks and vulnerabilities associated with acute hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture and food systems.<\/p>\n

   A set of principles inspires the Global Network\u2019s efforts:<\/p>\n

   \n
   1. The need to prepare, anticipate and respond at the local, regional and global levels, building on and strengthening local systems.<\/li>\n
   2. The centrality of resilient and sustainable food systems in preventing food and nutrition crises, mitigating their impact and boosting recovery and rehabilitation for its transformation.<\/li>\n
   3. The need to inform policies and actions to fight food and nutrition insecurity with evidence-based understanding of the complex dynamics and drivers of risk and vulnerability, such as conflict and insecurity, climate change, environmental degradation, and demographic change.<\/li>\n
   4. The need to address the risk, vulnerabilities and priorities of local rural communities involved in agriculture by adopting a territorial approach that is supported by national policies.<\/li>\n
   5. The need to align with and build on major existing initiatives and coordination mechanisms in order to deliver collective outcomes and meet the 2030 Agenda.<\/li>\n
   6. Ensuring conflict sensitive programming and principled approaches.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES (not all-inclusive)<\/h2>\n
