PROGRAM/ DEPARTMENT SUMMARY:
Mercy Corps has worked in Sichuan Province since 2008, when it responded to the earthquake. Since that time, Mercy Corps’ programming has evolved from relief towards longer-term development, and currently includes programs working with migrant youth, as well as disaster risk reduction in vulnerable communities of Sichuan and Yunnan Provinces. Mercy Corps’ programming is a commitment towards building the capacity of local partner organizations.
The rapid industrialization of China has had a huge impact on rural communities. The majority of working age men and many women migrate to major cities in search of higher paying work. Rural communities have become characterized by populations of what is known as the “Left Behind.” These include the very young children of migrants living far away and the elderly parents of migrants. The impact is seen on farmland that sits mostly idle due to lack of capable manual labor to tend to fields, further adding to the high levels of existing poverty. Children and youth lack services outside of basic schooling, and although many will eventually migrate themselves, at graduation they lack the basic vocational and social skills to be successful.
Mercy Corps’ Life Opportunities and Community Action in Luowen (LOCAL) Program is supporting communities in Luowen, a small community in the Northeast part of Sichuan Province, with skill building for youth with an aim towards gainful employment, support for livelihoods of existing residents, and capacity development for the local organizations working to improve the lives of residents.

Take the lead in mobilizing and managing potential short-term technical assistants (including international consultants), including drafting Scopes of Work, etc.Develop activities and initiatives for beneficiaries in areas of identified need, utilizing existing and potential resources, ensuring that a variety of stakeholders, including youth, are consulted.Collaborate and network with key local authorities, agencies and organizations so that limited resources may be mosteffectively used for the benefit of beneficiaries.Represent the program to internal and external audiences, including the donor and other stakeholders.Work closely with in-house the M&E leader to develop mechanisms to evaluate the impact of activities and programs.Monitor field program results and ensure cross-learning of best practices among field programs.Provide timely and accurate progress reports to donor, as well as a variety of stakeholders.In collaboration with the Director of Programs, participate in the development of other proposals.Participate in senior management team meetings as requested.Organize and facilitate field visits for donors and Mercy Corps staff as agreed upon.Perform any other duties, as assigned by the supervisor.Organizational Learning: As part of our commitment to organizational learning and in support of our understanding that learning organizations are more effective, efficient and relevant to the communities they serve - we expect all team members to commit 5% of their time to learning activities that benefit Mercy Corps as well as themselves.
