Ukraine FEWS NET Country Technical Lead
Country: Ukraine
Organization: Chemonics
Closing date: 5 Dec 2025
Introduction
The Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) is an integrated set of activities funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and is intended to provide timely, accurate, evidence-based, and transparent food insecurity early warning information and analysis. Created in 1985 in response to famines in East and West Africa, FEWS NET provides global coverage of acute food insecurity. FEWS NET’s work is implemented across several mechanisms by a team of partners that includes the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the University of California-Santa Barbara’s Climate Hazards Center (UCSB-CHC), University of Maryland’s Department of Geographical Sciences, American Institutes for Research (AIR), and Chemonics International (Chemonics). Chemonics implements FEWS NET’s Decision Support Team (DST), which is charged with providing integrated monitoring and analyses of current and forecast acute food insecurity in countries worldwide to support the United States Government’s (USG) policy and programmatic decisions. The DST operates through a Washington-based technical office, regional FEWS NET offices, and national staff presence in sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Latin America, and eastern Europe.
FEWS NET’s objective is to produce timely, evidence-based decision support to enable the efficient allocation of humanitarian assistance on the basis of need.
Based on an in-depth understanding of local livelihoods, FEWS NET monitors information and data on factors that affect food security, such as conflict, weather and agroclimatology, crops, pasture, markets and trade, and nutrition. The FEWS NET DST produces regular reports, including Food Security Outlooks and Outlook Updates, emergency alerts, market and price updates, and targeted analyses. FEWS NET makes reports available at www.fews.net and distributes them globally to governments, relief agencies, and other organizations engaged in humanitarian response and development programs.
The eighth phase of FEWS NET began in 2024. The work of the FEWS NET DST relies on close collaboration with international, regional, and national partners on food security-related data and information gathering and analysis. Major activities include joint monitoring and assessments, data sharing and exchanges, collaborative analysis and reporting, and support of local and regional food security networks.
Position Description
The FEWS NET DS Team maintains virtual and physical field offices in sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Latin America, and eastern Europe. Six regional offices coordinate and oversee the technical and administrative management of over 40 country offices. Each country office falls into one of three tiers, depending on the complexity of the context and operating environment, with Tier 1 countries requiring a larger staffing footprint, and Tier 3 countries requiring a smaller staffing footprint. There are four main technical positions at the country level: Country Technical Lead (CTL); Country Technical Manager (CTM); and Country Technical Senior Specialist for Food Security (CTSS-FS); and Country Technical Specialist for Food Security and Instability & Conflict (CTSS-FS&IC;). The CTL serves as the technical analysis leader within the country across all three tiers. Tier 1 and 2 countries have a CTL, CTM, and different numbers of CTSSs. As a default, Tier 3 countries have a CTL and one CTSS, although in select cases, they may have more than one. In addition, the CTL is responsible for supporting and supervising all staff in the country, including the Country Technical Manager (CTM), the Country Technical Senior Specialists (CTSSs) and others, in the following activities:
Efficient, focused acute food insecurity monitoring, data collection, assessment, and early warning analysis.

The CTL will ensure the integrated food security analyses (FSOs, FSOUs, FAOB input) classify and communicate the severity of acute food insecurity in line with the globally recognized Integrated Phase Classification (IPC) scale. Where IPC compatibility is not possible, the CTL will ensure analyses remain globally comparable.
Support the DS Team in meeting USAID’s expectations on timely delivery of decision support products, which include, but are not limited to: delivery of monthly reporting for all presence countries no later than 7 days after the last day of the reporting month; responding to urgent questions on acute food insecurity within one day; providing briefings within one week of request; and assessing acute food insecurity in Expanded Global Early Warning (EGEW) countries within one week of request.

A l’international, la CRF intervient dans 16 pays aux côtés des Sociétés Nationales et 3 plateformes régionales (PIRAC, PIROI et PIROPS), sur les thématiques suivantes : Santé et Gestion des risques de catastrophe.
Au même titre que dans les métiers qu’elle développe et met en œuvre en France, la Croix-Rouge française à l’international inscrit toutes ses missions dans un schéma d’action humanitaire durable. Cela se traduit par une articulation des activités d’urgence, de post-urgence, de sortie de crise et de reconstruction visant la meilleure efficacité. L’objectif est de mener des actions aux effets pérennes et de permettre aux populations de retrouver leur entière autonomie.
Environnement du poste
La Croix-Rouge française (CRF) a mené des actions au Tchad à partir des années 1970, et dispose d’une délégation permanente sur place depuis 1998. De 2001 à 2009, les premiers programmes menés par la CRF portaient sur l’accès à l’eau et l’assainissement dans la ville de N’Djamena, puis ce programme s’est étendu à partir de 2004 dans la région du Logone Occidental.
En 2010, la CRF a monté une intervention pour lutter contre la malnutrition dans la région du Batha. A partir de 2012, elle a ré-axé son approche en intégrant des éléments pour une amélioration de la sécurité alimentaire et de la santé maternelle et infantile.
Aujourd’hui, la CRF est présente dans les régions du Mayo Kebbi-Est et dans la ville de N’Djamena, en étroite collaboration avec la CRT et les services déconcentrés de l’Etat.
Cameroun
La délégation de la Croix-Rouge française (CRF) au Cameroun accompagne la Croix-Rouge camerounaise (CRC) de manière permanente depuis 2011 sur demande de la CRC comme le prévoient les principes du Mouvement CRCR. Le renforcement des capacités de la CRC est au cœur de son mandat : c’est la raison et la condition de sa présence et de toutes ses actions sur le territoire. La première collaboration entre la CRF et la CRC a été établie en 1967 avec l’ouverture d’une délégation permanente de la CRF au Cameroun, à Yaoundé en 2009.
Actuellement, la CRF intervient dans les régions de l’Extrême Nord et de l’Est dans les domaines de la santé/nutrition, la GRC, le soutien au développement de la société nationale, la cohésion sociale.
