Background

Organizational Context The Office of the United Nations Recovery Coordinator for Aceh and Nias (UNORC) was established in September 2005 to support the
Government of Indonesia. As the Government has taken a strong lead in
the post-emergency phase with the establishment of the Rehabilitation
and Reconstruction Agency for Aceh and Nias (BRR), it is imperative
that UNORC takes responsibility for facilitating strong coordination
among the UN Agencies, the international NGO community, and bilateral
donors in full and timely support of the Government’s reconstruction
and recovery efforts.

Staffed by personnel from the UN Secretariat and various UN Agencies,
UNORC serves as the main point of contact between the UN system, BRR
and Provincial and District Governments. UNORC aims to facilitate a
unified United Nations system approach, to put into place structures
for coordination at all levels, to minimize gaps in the response and
provide linkages and strategic policy that transcend all sectors.
UNORC is also deeply committed to incorporate the principle of equity
into the recovery efforts, with a particular focus on protecting and
advocating on behalf of the vulnerable. UNORC works with many partners
and continues to strengthen its field presence to overcome pressing
issues in Aceh and Nias. Information, research, analysis and
monitoring also constitute an essential service provided by UNORC to
the Government of Indonesia and partner organizations through the
UNORC Information Analysis Section (UNORC-IAS).

UNORC-IAS is currently composed of two units: the Information
Management Unit tasked with gathering and disseminating data to ensure
needs of stakeholders are met, as well as oversight on collating,
cleaning and processing data sets using the common UN platform,
DevInfo, also providing direct technical support to the Solutions
Exchange service/project; the Statistical Research and Analysis Unit
is tasked to develop timely analytical reports and data/indicator
products to feed into policy making. A third and final unit, Solutions
Exchange, is just now being established.

UNORC is seeking to tap into the vast knowledge base regarding the
Aceh situation and will therefore establish on-line communities of
practice using the proven platform of “Solutions Exchange” through
which recovery practitioners in Indonesia and elsewhere can exchange
knowledge, expertise, lessons learnt and good practices. The platform
will not only bring together the recovery community for exchanging
ideas and experience but will foster collaboration, cooperation and
create opportunities for joint activities.

Under the guidance and direct supervision of the Project Coordinator
for Solution Exchange Indonesia, the incumbent will be responsible for
creating, managing and generally motivating a specific Community of
Practice, comprised of possibly over a thousand development
practitioners in (the relevant thematic area) drawn from government,
NGOs, academic/research institutes, UN and other multilateral and
bilateral agencies.
