    ICCO / Kerk in actie

    ICCO is the Interchurch Organisation for Development Co-operation
    and Kerk in Actie is part of the Protestant Church in the Netherlands.

    ICCO and Kerk in Actie combine their knowledge, means and policies
    to enable them to do their work in developing countries better and
    more efficiently. Although they cooperate quite closely, ICCO and
    Kerk in Actie continue to operate as separate organisations.

    Together we provide financial support and advice to local organisations
    and networks throughout the world that are dedicated to improving
    access to basic services, stimulating sustainable economic development
    and advancing peace and democracy. We also put enterprising people
    in the Netherlands and developing countries in contact with one
    another. We work very closely with social organisations, including
    development organisations, educational institutions and businesses. Our
    assistance goes to help people in Latin America, Asia, Africa and
    Eastern Europe build a more dignified existence and become financially
    independent. ICCO has 250 employees.

    Armenia & Azerbaijan

    ICCO invites qualified candidates to apply for the position of:

    ProgrammeCoordinator Democratization & Peace Building,

    South Caucasus Duration: 24 months

    Duty station: Tbilisi, Georgia. With frequent travel to Armenia
    and Azerbaijan.

    Background of the function In the past years ICCO has supported
    Democratisation and Peace building (D&P) initiatives of a number of
    NGOs in the South Caucasus.

    In 2003 the capacity building programme for the South Caucasus
    started. This programme was an intervention to support 7 peace
    organizations from the Helsinki Citizens' Assembly (HCA) network in
    developing their organizational and institutional capacities. The
    programme was funded by PSO, through ICCO and IKV. In 2005 a mid term
    review was carried out.

    On the basis of the outcome of the mid term review in 2006 a second
    phase for the above mentioned capacity building programme is being
    developed for the period 2007-2008. The programme will be embedded in
    the overall ICCO D&P programme, addressing both HCA's as well as other
    ICCO-partner organisations in Armenia and Azerbaijan. The programme
    is titled "Civic Engagement in Peace building and Enhancement of
    Human Rights in Armenia and Azerbaijan", and will have a focus on
    civic engagement in peace and human rights issues and stimulating
    constructive public debate and dialogue.

    ICCO bears main responsibility for the programme. IKV/Pax Christi is
    involved as an advisory party, and will support the capacity building
    interventions related to the peace building programme through its
    own expertise and networks.
