Standard Job Description
Registration and Identity Management Officer
Organizational Setting and Work Relationships
The UNHCR Data Transformation Strategy 2020-2025 envisions that by 2025 UNHCR becomes a trusted leader on data and information related to refugees and other persons of concern (POC), thereby enabling actions to protect and to empower them. The Strategy invests in four complementary priority areas: data management and governance; information systems; capacities and skill development; and culture for evidence-informed decision-making. The Data Transformation Strategy also includes UNHCR¿s forward learning action plan on digital identity and the importance of strengthening a trusted and secure digital platform to facilitate protection and solutions, assistance delivery and the inclusion of POCs in State systems and their increased access to services. The Registration and Identity Management Officer (RIMO) will function under the direct supervision of a Senior Registration or Protection staff in the Section, Bureau or Country Operation.
The incumbent supports the management of UNHCR's registration or enrolment-related activities in the region/ country. S/he may receive functional guidance from the Global Data Service, Headquarters. The RIMO coordinates closely with registration operations, Bureau and advises on identity management of POCs, and will support, monitor and advise on registration or enrolment-related activities, whether conducted by UNHCR, partners or Governments. S/he is responsible for ensuring that registration/enrolment activities in the region/ country follow global registration and identity management practices, policies, standards and guidance and will also advocate for the strengthening of human resource capacity building in the areas of registration, identity management and digital identity. The position supports the operationalization of identity management and digital identity strategies such as the inclusion of refugees and asylum-seekers into host States¿ population registers and digital identity systems and the registration of birth, marriages, deaths and other vital events of forcibly displaced persons in the host Government¿s civil registries.
The incumbent will also ensure that identity management systems and practices are actively leveraged to support all UNHCR activities, including identification of specific needs, targeting and delivery of assistance, support to protection intervention, fraud mitigation and response, data protection, case management and conduct of durable solution processes. The incumbent will also support digital identity activities (standard setting, pilots, projects or programmes) with the aim of increasing the trust in the identity credentials of POCs to increase access to humanitarian assistance, protection, solutions and public and private sector services (including connectivity and financial services) while ensuring the appropriate protection of their privacy and personal data. The incumbent will also ensure that there is reliable data and analysis relating to POCs' registration, identity management and digital identification including for strategy development and monitoring and evaluation. The RIMO is a key custodian of UNHCR's refugee registration, identity management and assistance delivery systems, which include global, regional and country applications (as relevant and applicable), biometric systems and offline solutions. S/he supports field operations with alignment of registration and case management standard operating procedures to global refugee registration and identity system applications and guidance and digital identity technical standards. The RIMO promotes the implementation and interoperability between UNHCR's digital registration and identification systems and third parties¿ digital identification systems, including those of governments, partner humanitarian organisations and privates sector systems, as appropriate. The incumbent also works closely with Government, key UN and international organizations, NGOs and partners to establish the parameters for UNHCR support in registration, identity management and digital identity activities. In this regard, the RIMO will foster data-sharing partnerships while ensuring that data protection guidelines are implemented and adhered to and promote the increased recognition of POCs' identity credentials for access to services. All UNHCR staff members are accountable to perform their duties as reflected in their job description. They do so within their delegated authorities, in line with the regulatory framework of UNHCR which includes the UN Charter, UN Staff Regulations and Rules, UNHCR Policies and Administrative Instructions as well as relevant accountability frameworks. In addition, staff members are required to discharge their responsibilities in a manner consistent with the core, functional, cross-functional and managerial competencies and UNHCR's core values of professionalism, integrity and respect for diversity.
