Assistant Protection Officer (Statelessness)

Internal / External Vacancy Announcement
Vacancy Notice No.: IVN/EVN/KEN/NBI/18/011
Operational Context (role of the position within the team, describing its leadership role, it’s external/internal work relationships or contacts, the contextual environment in which it operates and the scope of supervision received, and where applicable, exercise by the incumbent)
Kenya has an estimated 18,500 stateless persons, descendants of migrants who generally arrived in Kenya during the colonial era. Upon independence they did not acquire Kenyan citizenship, and were not recognized as nationals of the countries of their forefathers, leaving them stateless. Many others may be at risk of statelessness through biased application of legal identity documentation procedures such as vetting conducted among certain ethnic groups during the birth registration procedure.
Kenya’s legislation protects persons with an undetermined nationality and or at risk of statelessness. The Constitution of Kenya, 2010, contains a progressive Bill of Rights and a revised chapter on citizenship. The Kenya Citizenship and Immigration Act 2011 defines stateless persons and sets out the requirements for the registration of such persons and their descendants as citizens of Kenya. Similar provisions apply to some categories of migrants who do not possess identification documents. However, the operational definition in the aforementioned Act limits eligibility for registration to persons who were in the country by 1963. There is need to broaden the legislation to include persons who entered the country after 1963 and their descendants. Furthermore, Kenya has not acceded to the Conventions on statelessness. Stateless persons continue to face challenges such as arbitrary arrests and exposure to all forms of discrimination in their daily lives. During participatory assessments conducted in 2016, persons of concern explicitly stated that they could not access birth certificates due to discrimination. Formal employment opportunities, access to financial services and freedom of movement were out of reach owing to lack of identity cards.
The Assistant Protection Officer (Statelessness) will work in the Protection Unit and will report to Senior Protection Officer.
The incumbent will have the primary responsibility for the development of legal and operational strategies to resolve and prevent statelessness situations in Kenya. The incumbent will also provide technical and operational advice and support to partners and other relevant stakeholders on statelessness issues. Support activities will include capacity building of the UNHCR and relevant partner staff in Kenya on statelessness, analysis and technical advice on nationality legislation and its implementation, coordination and harmonization of national interventions.
S/he will also provide functional guidance to programme staff. The incumbent assists in monitoring performance of implementing partners. S/he interacts on a very regulate basis with the IP staff and provides overall guidance as per the planes activities and budget.
The Assistant Protection Officer (Statelessness) is expected to coordinate the planning and delivery of all statelessness activities for the Operation. S/he contributes to designing a comprehensive statelessness strategy and represents the organization externally on statelessness issues and policy, as guided by the supervisor.
S/he also ensures that stateless persons are consulted and involved with the Office in making decisions that affect them, whether in accessing their rights or in identifying appropriate solutions to their problems. To achieve this, the incumbent will need to build and maintain effective interfaces with communities of concern, local authorities and all relevant stakeholders.
Accountability *(key results that will be achieved**)*

Statelessness is prevented and addressed through the application of International and National Law and existing practices.
Activities are guided by the statelessness strategy and respect the policy of UNHCR on age, gender and diversity (AGD).
