GIZ-Internal/External Vacancy Announcement #139/2021
GIZ AU
The regional GIZ project supports the implementation of the African Union Border Programme (AUBP) with a focus on three areas:
Delimitation and Demarcation: The project supports selected AU Member States to better define their borders and to use improved planning and technical capabilities for joint border definition. The better definition of borders includes increasing the number (densification) and renewal of dilapidated border markings, as well as mapping border areas. It also includes the reform or creation of border commissions. Working with the local border to communities to create awareness about the relevance of borders and to prevent conflicts is another important aspect to foster peace and security.
Cross-Border Cooperation: The project works with border communities, local, civil society and state actors to implement cross-border cooperation projects at selected borders.
Strengthening the AU and RECs: The AUBP-unit and selected Regional Economic Communities (RECs) are strengthened in supporting border governance initiatives of their Member States. The project works with the AU Commission (AUC) and the RECs to improve their capabilities to exercise their roles as norm developers, multipliers and coordination platforms. The project aims at increasing the added value of the AUC for the states and to further strengthen the AUBP unit as a pacemaker of the border governance agenda and multiplier of AU legal instruments and policies.
The AUBP Unit whose mandate is to coordinate and supervise the implementation of the AUBP, gathered, since the inception of Programme in 2007 to date, a huge number of documents that need to be organized, digitized and archived. As part of its support to the AUBP, GIZ is facilitating this activity by hiring two interns..
