Greening the Orange Communications Coordinator
Do you want to be part of a team working for a greener humanitarian response?
The Norwegian Refugee Council delivers high-quality aid, protecting people forced to flee and supporting them as they build a new future. NRC works in new and protracted crises across more than 30 countries, providing food assistance, clean water, shelter, legal aid, and education. Around 15,000 people work for NRC, most hired locally to work in the field, with a smaller number based at head office in Oslo or working globally.
NRC has set an ambitious objective to work towards making ourselves, the communities we serve and the wider humanitarian sector carbon neutral. The "Greening the Orange" project is responsible for the development of a strategy and a framework for a green shift in NRC, canvassing all aspects of our work, and spanning our offices, supply chain and programming.
Creating a greener humanitarian response will require changes at all levels of NRC; communication will play a crucial role in inspiring the people and processes needed to make this happen
