About NORCAP

NORCAP works to improve aid to better protect and empower people affected by crisis and climate change. We do this by providing expertise and solutions to humanitarian, development and peacebuilding partners, because we believe working together is the best way to reduce needs, risks and vulnerability over time. We seek and promote more effective ways of working at the global level and in the field. NORCAP’s aim is not only to reduce needs, but also to create choice and opportunity for vulnerable people. NORCAP works with and through our partners to improve aid in two complementary ways:

  • We provide targeted expertise to strengthen our partners’ response.

  • We collaborate with partners to develop solutions to un-met gaps and challenges.

This role sits at the heart of that collaboration: it places NORCAP expertise directly alongside the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Moldova to help communities take ownership of the protection services that affect their lives.

About the partner

Since February 2022, more than 1.1 million people have entered the Republic of Moldova from Ukraine, and around 140,000 Ukrainian nationals remain in the country today — mostly women, children and older people. UNHCR’s response places community-based protection at its centre, working through Community Service Centres, Refugee Councils and the Cities of Solidarity and Peaceful Coexistence initiatives so that displaced people participate meaningfully in decisions that shape their lives.

2026 is a transition year for the operation. Under its Multi-Year Strategy, UNHCR Moldova is progressively handing over Community Service Centres to local public authorities and communities, and transferring selected protection functions to Refugee Councils and refugee-led organisations — supported by mentoring, capacity-building and technical guidance — as the office moves towards a more strategic and advisory role.
