The Armed Forces and Non-State Armed Groups (NSAGs) Delegate supports ICRC’s dialogue with armed forces, law enforcement agencies, NSAGs and other arms carriers by sharing their knowledge and experience, across the full range of ICRC activity. We strive to improve the ICRC’s positioning and access as well as encourage legally compliant behavior in military operations, in order to limit or prevent suffering of people affected by armed conflict and other situations of violence.
Our Delegates act as operational adviser on military affairs, procedures and conduct, in support of the full range of ICRC operations, drawing on the delegate's knowledge and experience. The delegate supports the development and application of strategies to engage with weapons bearers of all backgrounds, to promote and encourage legally compliant behavior including, where necessary, capacity building programmes and facilitate ICRC’s safe access to areas of conflict.
Are you ready to make a tangible difference in conflict-affected regions as an ICRC delegate? Based at one of our duty stations, your role will be dynamic, responding swiftly to operational demands and evolving situations in alignment with ICRC’s strategy for 2024-2027.
