The cluster approach ensures clear leadership, predictability and accountability in international responses to and recovery from humanitarian emergencies by clarifying the division of labour among organizations and better defining their roles and responsibilities within the different sectors of the response. It aims to make the international humanitarian community better organised and more accountable and professional, so that it can be a better partner for the affected people, host governments, local authorities, local civil society and resourcing partners.
On behalf of Save the Children and UNICEF, the Country Co-Lead Agencies for the Education Cluster, and in support of the Government, the purpose of this post is to provide leadership and facilitate the processes at the subnational level which will ensure a well-coordinated, strategic, adequate, coherent, and effective response to and recovery from the Cyclone Idai by all participants in the Education Cluster.
