Other Jobs To Apply

In a world witnessing unprecedented levels of displacement, the need for robust, data-driven policies to protect and integrate refugees is more critical than ever. For Indonesia, a key transit and host country for thousands of refugees and asylum-seekers, the challenge of formulating effective, humane policies based on concrete evidence is paramount. The announcement of a UNHCR Home-Based Consultancy Supporting Evidence-Based Policy in Indonesia represents a timely and strategic opportunity for a seasoned policy expert.

This role is not a standard research assignment; it is a direct intervention to strengthen the analytical backbone of refugee protection and solutions in a complex operational context. By translating data into actionable insights, the consultant will play a pivotal role in shaping a more predictable and rights-based environment for some of the world's most vulnerable people.

The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is seeking an expert consultant to provide high-level analytical and policy support to its Indonesia operation. This home-based consultancy offers the flexibility to contribute to a critical humanitarian mission from anywhere, while focusing on the Indonesian context. The consultant will be tasked with synthesizing complex data from protection monitoring, socio-economic assessments, and legal analyses to produce clear, compelling policy briefs, reports, and recommendations aimed at government counterparts, donors, and UNHCR leadership.

Key benefits of this engagement include a competitive consultancy fee under UN standards, the professional prestige of influencing national policy with a leading UN agency, and the flexibility of remote work. What makes this position stand out is its direct line from analysis to advocacy. The evidence you compile and the recommendations you draft will be used in high-level dialogues with Indonesian ministries, potentially influencing legislation, funding allocations, and operational approaches to refugee management.

For a policy specialist passionate about displacement issues, this is a chance to drive tangible change from your home office.
