As part of its strategic development, Avocats Sans Frontières (ASF) has strengthened its presence in the Euromed region (Europe and the southern shore of the Mediterranean) by creating a position dedicated to proximity with beneficiaries and partners. This approach is part of the organization’s decentralization dynamic and aims to integrate the regional perspective into the definition of international priorities. The objective is to ensure more relevant and higher-quality actions for the concerned populations, thanks to a precise understanding of regional dynamics, specialized expertise, and the establishment of strategic partnerships. This regional presence is concretely expressed through three main components: program and funding development, representation and institutional visibility, as well as team management and internal communication. The priority themes identified for the region focus on the fight against structural racism, migration dynamics, the defense of civic space, resistance to authoritarian drifts, and the promotion of decolonization approaches, but they can extend to other issues.
Main objectives of the position
The function aims to guarantee the development of coherent and relevant ASF actions in the Euromed region by consolidating relationships with local and regional actors. It plays a role of reference and unity within the region, and its unifying nature fully contributes to the promotion of the “One ASF” principle.
It also aims to:
• Define ASF’s intervention and development strategy in the region and its countries, in accordance with the organization’s vision and its institutional strategic framework.
• Ensure the development of programs and the search for funding sources for ASF’s multi-country actions or in new intervention countries.
• Represent ASF, ensure its visibility, and position the organization as a cross-cutting actor on justice and human rights to develop partnerships and synergies.
