Project Context and Scope

Established in 1951, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) is the leading intergovernmental organisation in the field of migration and is committed to the principle that humane and orderly migration benefits migrants and society. IOM is part of the United Nations system as a related organisation and supports migrants and governments to manage migration in a rights-based manner, with a focus on protecting and saving lives, driving solutions to displacement and facilitating pathways for regular migration.

IOM Ireland implements the Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) Project for International Protection Applicants residing in Ireland. The project provides counselling, case management, cultural mediation, psychosocial support, information and referral assistance, community-based activities, capacity building and follow-up through the MHPSS Infoline.

The project has developed a range of SOPs, guidelines, workflows, forms and operational tools. To strengthen consistency, accountability, safeguarding and service quality, IOM Ireland requires an external consultant to systematically review existing documentation, identify gaps and duplication, harmonise terminology and processes, and develop a practical SOP package for MHPSS project operations.

The objective of the consultancy is to develop a coherent, standardised and implementation-ready package of SOPs that reflects current MHPSS project operations and supports safe, ethical, consistent and accountable service delivery across International Protection Applicant centres.

The consultant will coordinate closely with designated MHPSS focal points while remaining accountable to the Hiring Manager for the timely submission, revision and finalisation of all deliverables. The SOP package will be aligned with relevant IOM standards, policies and principles, including safeguarding, PSEA, protection, accountability to affected populations, data protection and confidentiality requirements.
