ԾՐԱԳՐԻ ՄԱՍԻՆ : 

Operational Context
The Republic of Armenia ratified the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees and its 1967 Protocol in 1993. The current Law on Refugees and Asylum of the Republic of Armenia was adopted in 2008 and was extensively amended in 2015. Since 2000, the Government of the Republic of Armenia (RA) has developed several concept papers or strategies and two action plans (2011 and 2017), which defined the main directions of national migration policy at the relevant point in time. On 20 May 2021, the RA Government endorsed a Conceptual Framework and Action Plan of State Management of Migration (hereafter “the Conceptual Framework”). The goal of the Conceptual Framework is to combine the commitments made by the Government in the sphere of migration management in one document, to define the principles of migration management and establish the main directions of the migration policy. Asylum-seekers, refugees and other forcibly displaced persons are among the target groups of the Conceptual Framework. The Conceptual Framework envisages development of four programs in the following areas:
- Regulation of Integration and Reintegration Issues;
- Management of Migration Flows;
- Crisis Management of Forced Migrant Mass Influx;
- Promotion of repatriation.
It is anticipated that the Program on Management of Migration Flows shall include an asylum and refugees related component focusing on further improvement of the national international protection system. A draft of the Program should be submitted to the Office of the Prime Minister of Armenia nine months after the establishment of the Ministry of the Interior (expected in early 2022). Given the institutional changes anticipated in 2022, including the establishment of a Migration and Citizenship Service under the Ministry of the Interior, an up-to-date assessment is required to make sure that the strategic documents to be endorsed by the Government are evidence-based, respond to the current realities, needs and challenges and ensure the investment of the required resources. The outcomes of the assessment will inform the development of those sections of the Program on Management of Migration Flows which relate to the improvement of the RA national international protection system. A similar exercise regarding the migration related needs and gaps will be performed by the International Organization for Migration. Both assessments are supposed to be consolidated by the Migration Service and presented to the RA Government in spring 2022.

Consent:
The UNHCR workforce consists of many diverse nationalities, cultures, languages and opinions. UNHCR seeks to sustain and strengthen this diversity to ensure equal opportunities as well as an inclusive working environment for its entire workforce. Applications are encouraged from all qualified candidates without distinction on grounds of race, colour, sex, national origin, age, religion, disability, sexual orientation and gender identity.
According to article 101, paragraph 3, of the Charter of the United Nations, the paramount consideration in the employment of the staff is the necessity of securing the highest standards of efficiency, competence, and integrity. Candidates will not be considered for employment with the United Nations if they have committed violations of international human rights law, violations of international humanitarian law, sexual exploitation, sexual abuse, or sexual harassment, or if there are reasonable grounds to believe that they have been involved in the commission of any of these acts. The term "sexual exploitation" means any actual or attempted abuse of a position of vulnerability, differential power, or trust, for sexual purposes, including, but not limited to, profiting monetarily, socially or politically from the sexual exploitation of another. The term "sexual abuse" means the actual or threatened physical intrusion of a sexual nature, whether by force or under unequal or coercive conditions. The term "sexual harassment" means any unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature that might reasonably be expected or be perceived to cause offence or humiliation, when such conduct interferes with work, is made a condition of employment or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment, and when the gravity of the conduct warrants the termination of the perpetrator's working relationship. Candidates who have committed crimes other than minor traffic offences may not be considered for employment.

ԿԱԶՄԱԿԵՐՊՈւԹՅԱՆ ՄԱՍԻՆ : 

The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is a humanitarian and non-political organization mandated by the United Nations to protect refugees and help them find lasting solutions to their problems. UNHCR's activities are based on a framework of international refugee and statelessness law and standards that includes the 1951 United Nations Convention relating to the Status of Refugees and its 1967 Protocol, 1954 and 1961 Statelessness Conventions, as well as an array of international and regional treaties on human rights and humanitarian law. The mandate of UNHCR is the international protection of refugees and stateless persons. The provision of international protection by UNHCR implies ensuring the basic human rights of refugees and stateless persons. UNHCR has presence in the Republic of Armenia since 1992, under a Co-operation Agreement signed with the Government. UNHCR's work in Armenia presently concentrates on capacity-building activities geared towards strengthening national authorities, laws and policies to ensure the proper handling of refugee and statelessness issues, the reception and care of refugees, the promotion of self-reliance of refugees and the realization of durable solutions. These are carried out in combination with other activities such as advocacy, information dissemination and monitoring. The internship shall give an opportunity to familiarize the intern with all of UNHCR protection activities with a focus on statelessness.
