Job Description
Title: Psychologist
Company Name: Terre des hommes
Vacancy: 1
Job Location: Cox's Bazar (Ukhia)
Employment Status: Contractual
Educational Requirements:
∎ Master of Arts (MA) in Psychology, Master of Social Science (MSS) in Social Work
Experience Requirements:
∎ At least 2 year(s)
Job Context:
∎ Violent events in Rakhine State of Myanmar, starting in August 2017, led to the displacement of 615`0001 Rohingya men, women and children towards Cox`s Bazar district in Bangladesh. The mass and speed of the displacement created an acute humanitarian crisis. People arrived with very little belongings and all basic needs are to be met. Beyond water, sanitation, shelter, food and health, protection is an important issue to address notably when it comes to children: they potentially suffered the most from the dramatic events which happened in Myanmar and during the cross border journey to Bangladesh and they are now the most vulnerable in the refugee camps where living conditions are particularly harsh. The displaced population counts 28%2 of children between 5 and 17 years old (14% each per gender). There is potentially - adding the refugees already leaving in the area before the crisis (212`518) - a population of 231`700 individuals which need to be supported.
∎ In response to this humanitarian crisis, Tdh seeks to deliver integrated services and support to children in Cox Bazar through provisions of psychosocial support to refugee children, youth and adults and targeted child protection services to the most vulnerable children, including children affected by family separation. Considering the significant mental health and PSS needs among the refugee community and the scarcity and limited access to specialized mental health services, Tdh has decided to pilot the WHO`s "Problem Management Plus", a low intensity psychological intervention model for child protection and other professionals without a mental health care background. The model outlines intervention strategies for individual psychological help for adults impaired by distress in communities exposed to adversity.
