About ACAPS
Who we are
ACAPS is an independent analysis provider. We are an independent analytical voice helping humanitarian workers, influencers, fundraisers, and donors make better-informed decisions and respond more effectively to disasters.
What we do
We inform crisis response: We aim towards reshaping the humanitarian narrative by providing timely and independent needs analysis, data, training, and methodological tools while advocating for a more evidence-based response to crises.
We collaborate with honesty and Creativity: ACAPS maximises synergies with humanitarian responders, specialised analytical organisations, academic institutions, the private sector, and civil society and encourages them to implement a collaborative approach.
As humanitarian needs continue to rise steeply, there is an increasing parallel demand in the sector for high-quality, independent analysis to guide resource prioritisation and programmatic responses. ACAPS is uniquely positioned in the humanitarian architecture to respond to these challenges, operating as a global public good to the humanitarian sector by providing independent, multi-sectoral analysis to enable humanitarian stakeholders to better understand and address the needs of crisis affected populations across the globe.
ACAPS is currently at an exciting stage of its growth trajectory, with a fast-expanding decentralised global team. Due to an increased awareness of ACAPS value add to the humanitarian sector, ACAPS conducts analysis on crises in Afghanistan, Colombia, Ethiopia, Sudan, Ukraine, and Yemen with team members working within many of these countries. This is in addition to global teams providing analysis spanning over 150 countries and 100 active crises worldwide. ACAPS donor portfolio is also expanding, with current active funding from key institutional donors such as BHA, FCDO, SDC, GFFO, GAC, SDC, NMFA and others.
Sudan Analysis Hub
ACAPS established the Sudan Analysis Hub in August 2023, in the early days of the current war, to provide integrated independent analysis to support the humanitarian response. We have a dedicated team of analysts in the region supported by data analytics experts, researching and preparing analytical reports covering thematic areas on the protection of civilians, displacement, rights of minorities including women, girls, and children, anticipatory analysis including scenarios, and identification and analysis of worsening sectoral humanitarian needs – including at sub-national level.
Purpose of the position
The Project Manager will support day-to-day functioning of the ACAPS Sudan Analysis Hub including coordination of analytical and operational processes. Together with the Team Leader or Regional Manager and the Senior Analysts, the Project Manager will constitute the management of the hub, directly responsible for the effective functioning of the hub and good team collaboration.
Upon request, the Project Manager may represent the hub in various engagements with key stakeholders.
