The Family Care First Cambodia (FCFC) project funded by USAID aims to ensure that children are cared for in a safe family environment by developing a well-functioning comprehensive care system in Cambodia which can respond effectively to the needs of vulnerable children and families. The overall project will focus on four key objectives: government systems strengthening, direct response through developing a strong social welfare workforce, prevention of child-family separation and the transformation of the dominant residential care model. Activities delivered under the first phase of this project will deliver critical programmatic learning and establish a model for collective action toward an ultimate desired impact of reducing the number of children living outside family care in Cambodia.
The project is recruiting a child protection specialist to serve as a key member of the Family Care First Cambodia team, and provide technical backstopping for Save the Children team, consortium partners and other key stakeholders in the FCFC initiative in Cambodia. The Child Protection Specialist will support in developing initiatives, proposals, interventions, documentation and research related to family care and alternative care programmes in Cambodia.
