Data Collector (Roster)

Action Against Hunger (ACF) Action Against Hunger is a leading humanitarian and development agency working to combat the causes of hunger and malnutrition in over 46 countries worldwide. Eleven years into the Syrian conflict, more than 1.3 million Syrians have sought refuge in Jordan. This influx of refugees has strained Jordan's economy and resources, with Syrians often accepting worse working conditions and lower compensation than Jordanians and taking on low-skill, informal jobs in sectors such as in manufacturing, construction and agriculture. In 2022, Jordan had a 23% unemployment rate. For Syrian refugees, unemployment rates are significantly worse with 80% of Syrian refugees unemployed in 2021, up from 50% and 65% in 2019 and 2020. 

Action Against Hunger has been operational in Jordan since 2014, delivering livelihoods, social protection WASH and MHPSS programming in Irbid, Zarqa, Mafraq, and Madaba governorates. Through its livelihoods and social protection program, ACF aims to improve the livelihoods status of Syrian refugees and vulnerable Jordanians through decent and sustainable employment opportunities; strengthening sustainable livelihoods and value chains and enhancing the capacity of local actors to promote economic opportunities and improve working conditions. So far, ACF has reached over 6,000 beneficiaries through its social protection and livelihood activities in 2022. Action Against Hunger is also an active member of the Livelihoods, Basic Needs, Food Security and Durable Solutions Working Groups; Graduation Approach and Vocational Training Taskforces; and Common Cash Facility Steering Committee.

Action Against Hunger is looking to build a roster of qualified data collectors interested in working on short assignments when the need arises. Deployments will typically last for 7-15 days, with assignments available across ACF's project locations in Irbid, Mafraq, Azraq, Zarqa and Madaba.

If you are a young professional with previous volunteering experience, passionate about community service and enhancing self-reliance of vulnerable refugees and host communities, GO AHEAD and apply for our roster.
