Le Facilitateur/trice peut également être amené a gérer la traduction de certains outils clés de l'INEE.

DESCRIPTION DE L’ORGANISATION
Le Réseau inter-agences pour l’éducation en situations d’urgence (INEE) est un réseau mondial ouvert composé de plus de 7 500 praticiens, étudiants, enseignants, personnels des Nations Unies, des organisations non gouvernementales, représentants des bailleurs de fonds, des gouvernements et des universités qui œuvrent conjointement dans un cadre humanitaire et de développement pour assurer à toutes les personnes le droit à une éducation de qualité et à un environnement d’apprentissage sûr en situations d’urgence et de relèvement d’après-crise. Le réseau s’attache à améliorer la communication et la coordination entre ses membres en cultivant et en facilitant les relations de collaboration et en créant des opportunités et un espace pour partager les connaissances, développer des ressources, informer les politiques, renforcer les capacités et entreprendre une action conjointe.

L’INEE envisage un monde où :
• Toutes les personnes touchées par une crise et l'instabilité ont accès à des opportunités éducatives de qualité, pertinentes et sûres ;
• Les services éducatifs sont intégrés dans toutes les interventions d'urgence comme un élément essentiel qui peut sauver des vies et donner des moyens durables d'existence dans le cadre de la réponse humanitaire;
• Les gouvernements et les bailleurs de fonds assurent un financement durable et élaborent des politiques holistiques pour assurer la planification de l'éducation, la prévention et l’atténuation des crises, les réponses d’intervention et le relèvement;
• Tous les programmes d'éducation destinés à planifier et répondre aux urgences, crises chroniques et relèvement sont compatibles avec les normes minimales de l’INEE et doivent rendre compte de qualité et de résultats.
