The World Food Programme is hiring a Gender e Disaster Risk Management Officer.
The ARC programme began in 2019, with the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between ARC and the Government of Mozambique, represented by the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF). The aim of this MoU was to define the impact of Extreme Meteorological Events in Mozambique, including technical support to be provided by the ARC Agency to national experts working on disaster risk management and financing, as well as on training government staff and other efforts in support of the country’s objectives.
In order to monitor the implementation of the ARC program in Mozambique, two levels of supervision were designated, namely a Ministerial Supervision to be ensured by the Ministry of Economy and Finance, with the responsibility of identifying the appropriate parties for the financing of the premium required for the taking of ARC Insurance, Limited, and a Program Supervisor provided by the National Institute of Disaster Risk Management and Reduction (INGD), as the government institution that is operationalizing the ARC Program in Mozambique. The Government Technical Working Group (TWG) consists of representatives of government institutions and relevant partners (INGD, SETSAN, DNGRG, IIAM, MADER, EMOSE, MEF, ISSM, INE, MTA, INAM, INAS, EMU and PMA), who in addition to participating in the process of customization and validation of Africa RiskView, Contingency Planning and Risk Transfer for the Mozambican context, serves as the government’s technical consultation body for decision-making in all matters inherent of the ARC Program in Mozambique.
By the end of 2019, ARC offered the parametric model that covered drought situations and the tropical cyclone insurance model was made available in 2020 and is still in its testing and socialization phase by the TWG for further technical opinion on its consistency and robustness taking into account the real conditions of the country.
According to the MoU, it is expected to identify the risk profile in Mozambique, the installation of a computer platform for Risk and Disaster Management and promotion of training of the Technical Working Group (TWG) on Risk Management and appropriation of the Africa Risk View (ARV) tool, in order to transfer the management of the risk portfolio to ARC and payment of an insurance premium.
