Established in 1951, IOM is the leading inter-governmental organization in the field of migration and works closely with governmental, intergovernmental and non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants.

Context:
Senegal has traditionally been an important country of destination in the West Africa region, and is also a country of emigration. Since its establishment in 1998, the IOM office in Dakar, Senegal, has been working with the Government of Senegal and other stakeholders in the field of migration to address the challenges and opportunities presented by dynamic migratory patterns and trends. IOM’s activities in Senegal have focused on building on the link between migration and development in Senegal, counter‐trafficking activities, assisted voluntary return and reintegration support for migrants returning to Senegal, and strengthening Government capacity in labour migration management, border management and in migration policy development.

IOM Senegal is seeking to evolve in response to the need for innovative solutions to increase ever-increasing migration flows. IOM Senegal plans to target most specifically the areas of Assisted Voluntary Return (AVR); Labour mobility and Human Development (LHD), Counter-Trafficking (CT) and Migration and Health (MH).

IOM Senegal continues to provide assistance to irregular returning migrants and follows up on their socio-economic integration into their communities of origin, in cooperation with the Government. AVR projects run by IOM Senegal seek to offer innovative, sustainable training opportunities to returning migrants in order to support and promote their return, in the best possible conditions.

Senegal being a country of destination for child victims of trafficking, IOM Senegal has been very active in providing direct assistance services to those identified and reintegrating them into their communities of origin either in Senegal or across the region. Simultaneously, IOM has strengthened the capacities of the concerned national counterparts in preventing and protecting child victims of trafficking and in introducing the concept of referral system in the area of protection of people on the move. In the South-East of Senegal IOM has implemented various projects to improve standards of physical, mental and social wellbeing, for migrants and mobile populations.

Given current and emerging challenges in Senegal and West Africa, there is significant value in including a Project Development Specialist at IOM Senegal. In particular, a Project Development Specialist could play an important role in developing innovative projects; monitoring and analysing migratory trends in Senegal and in the region; supporting project development and/or review projects; participating in Regional Consultative Processes; keeping abreast of developments; delivering situation reports, writing articles and publications; and organising conferences and workshops.
