Mission and objectives

Established in 1951, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) is the leading intergovernmental organization in the field of migration and is committed to the principle that humane and orderly migration benefits migrants and society. IOM is part of the United Nations system, as a related organization. IOM supports migrants across the world, developing effective responses to the shifting dynamics of migration and, as such, is a key source of advice on migration policy and practice. The organization works in emergency situations, developing the resilience of all people on the move, and particularly those in situations of vulnerability, as well as building capacity within governments to manage all forms and impacts of mobility. The Organization is guided by the principles enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, including upholding human rights for all. Respect for the rights, dignity and well-being of migrants remains paramount.

Context

Within this framework, IOM will implement field-level data collection activities under the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) in close coordination with the Presidency of Migration Management (PMM) of the Ministry of Interior. These activities aim to generate reliable, timely, and actionable data to inform evidence-based decision-making and enhance programme effectiveness.

The Field Data Collector will report to IOM and operate under the direct supervision of IOM’s Senior Project Associate and Field Coordinator, and the day-to-day guidance of the Field Team Leader. The UN Volunteer will support the implementation of field data collection activities, ensuring accurate and timely data gathering in line with established methodologies, tools, and ethical standards.

Task description

Under direct supervision of IOM’s Senior Project Associate and Field Coordinator, the UN Volunteer will:

• Conduct quantitative and qualitative interviews in the field with individuals from both host and migrant communities, in line with established methodologies
