As Humanitarian Protection Officer, I lead on developing and driving Trócaire’s approach to protection across its humanitarian programmes – ranging from policy and strategy development and advocacy to technical programming advice. I am part of the organisation’s ‘surge capacity’ team for humanitarian response, based in HQ but with frequent travel. The organisation’s approach to protection ranges from mainstreaming and integration through to ‘stand alone’ protection work, generally with a particular focus on GBV, child protection and MHPSS.
