Partnership with UNHCR
In July 2013, a new policy on the selection and retention of partners for UNHCR operations was instituted. The new process necessitates the selection of partners through a call for expression of interest which is reviewed internally by UNHCR through a consultative and multi-functional methodology. This is done to ensure that the process is open and fair and is conducted with due diligence and is evidenced in an objective, consistent, transparent and timely manner. Agencies wishing to partner with UNHCR as implementing partners will thus be selected after the submission of a concept note in relation to a specific “Call”. Interested agencies can also submit concept notes which would be reviewed as per the Implementing Partnership Management Guidelines. For further information, kindly contact the UNHCR Kenya Office or the Implementing Partner Management Service through [email protected].
