This position is advertised open to external applicants. General Background of Project Assignment The ongoing political, human rights and socio-economic developments in Venezuela have led over million Venezuelans refugees and migrants to move into Latin American and the Caribbean countries. It is estimated that Guyana, a small developing nation, has welcomed thus far over 23000 refugees and migrants from Venezuela. The increasing number of refugees and migrants from Venezuela has put additional strain in already limited resources and impacted host communities, especially vulnerable local communities in the country’s interior where service provision is already limited. The deteriorating situation in Venezuela has also led to significant numbers of Guyanese and Guyanese descendants to return to Guyana from Venezuela. In addition, the COVID pandemic and related restrictions imposed to curb the spread of the disease has also greatly impacted the country’s economy and its vulnerable population, including the large refugee and migrant population.
