About Mercy Corps

Mercy Corps is a leading global organization powered by the belief that a better world is possible.
In disaster, in hardship, in more than 40 countries around the world, we partner to put bold solutions into action — helping people triumph over adversity and build stronger communities from within. Now, and for the future.

Program / Department Summary

Mercy Corps’ Ukraine crisis response seeks to meet the humanitarian needs of vulnerable Ukrainians and other conflict-affected people where they are: displaced inside Ukraine, refugees in Poland, Romania and Moldova, or trapped behind frontlines. We aim to reach 500,000 vulnerable people with multi-purpose cash assistance, in-kind humanitarian support, and protection services across four countries. Almost all of our impact will be delivered in partnership: with Ukrainian, Polish, Romanian and Moldovan civil society organizations through a granting program that matches humanitarian action with capacity strengthening, and with peer international NGOs through a consortium in Ukraine.  Mercy Corps is responding to the Ukraine crisis with large-scale consortium programming with a focus on Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance (MPCA). The Consortium is a partnership between four international humanitarian aid agencies to model and deliver innovative, effective cash and other humanitarian assistance programs to support people affected by the Ukraine crisis within Ukraine.

General Position Summary

Community Accountability Reporting Mechanism (CARM) is an essential part of Mercy Corps’ commitment to program quality, integrity, and efforts to prevent sexual exploitation and abuse. CARM provides individuals, organizations, local groups, and other stakeholders a way of bringing questions, ideas, suggestions, and complaints to directly Mercy Corps, through safe and confidential channels – and then, to receive a response from our organization. In the context of the Ukraine emergency response, designing and implementing an effective CARM will play a key role in ensuring that emergency assistance is responsive to the changing needs of displaced people, and can adapt over time.    

The Community Accountability Officer is an important team member who handles suggestions, questions, feedback, and complaints from community members and program participants. This helps to make sure that our commitments to responding to feedback are met. In situations where our partners do not have their own community accountability reporting mechanism, the Community Accountability Officer will support partner staff to advertise Mercy Corps CARM channels, and will handle feedback received according to agreed procedures. In situations where the partner is developing their own community accountability reporting mechanism, the Community Accountability Officer will support capacity strengthening activities, in collaboration with the Community Accountability ManagerSenior Community Accountability Officer and Partnerships Officers.
