**BACKGROUND ON IMPACT AND REACH**:
***:
IMPACT Initiatives is a humanitarian NGO, based in Geneva, Switzerland. The organisation manages several initiatives, including the REACH Initiative. The IMPACT team comprises specialists in data collection, management and analysis, GIS and remote sensing.

**We are currently looking for a Research Manager to lead our Vulnerability & Inclusion Unit in Moldova.**
**Department**: REACH
**Position**: Research Manager
**Contract duration**: 12 months
**Starting Date**: March 2025
**Location**: Chisinau, Moldova
**Deadline to apply**:27th January 2025
**COUNTRY PROFILE**:
IMPACT has been active in Moldova since late February 2022, following the escalation of conflict in neighbouring Ukraine. IMPACT’s work has primarily been to facilitate the emergency response efforts in support of the more than 700,000 refugees that entered Moldova in the months following. Today, according to UNHCR and the Moldovan Government, approximately 120,000 refugees remain in the country. Alongside the pressures felt due to the Ukraine conflict, Moldovan society continues to grapple with several other interconnected challenges. These include economic uncertainty, energy insecurity, government reform and climate change. The humanitarian response is therefore shifting towards a medium to long term outlook that addresses the vulnerabilities of refugee population alongside those of the Moldovan host population in a holistic manner, through increased support to government entities to provide social assistance that promotes inclusion. IMPACT Moldova’s scope has likewise expanded to conduct research that covers the spectrum of humanitarian and development needs in the country, to provide timely data and analysis to a variety of partners and other relevant stakeholders.
With the recent adoption of the Country Strategy 2025-2027, the Moldova mission will focus on three strategic objectives to drive programmatic activities: 1. Ukraine Refugee Response, focused on supporting the regional refugee response plan; 2. Resilient Local Capacities, focused on fostering partnerships with local entities at national and local levels to respond to vulnerable community needs; and 3. Disaster Risk Reduction & Climate Action, focused on building communities that are more resilient to natural, anthropogenic and climate-related hazards.
