Bogota, Colombia Mercy Corps A tiempo completo

**About Mercy Corps**

Mercy Corps is powered by the belief that a better world is possible. To do this, we know our teams do their best work when they are diverse and every team member feels that they belong. We welcome diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and skills so that we can be stronger and have long term impact.

**The Program/ Department Summary**

For 16 years, Mercy Corps has successfully worked in more than half of the country with communities most affected by conflict, both pre
- and post-2016 Peace Accords. Mercy Corps program participants include displaced and refugee populations, smallholder farmers, victims of natural disasters, LGBTI+ community members, and youth. Mercy Corps Colombia’s rapidly growing portfolio, which will have an operational budget of at least $36M in 2023, includes programs focusing on the Venezuelan refugee response (including cash transfers, psychosocial support, legal support, small business, and employment opportunities), land titling, illicit crop substitution, and improved productivity and increased income from coffee farming, especially for women farmers. Mercy Corps Colombia is the lead organization of the VenEsperanza cash consortium, the largest cash transfer program in Colombia, which includes as its main partners (sub-grantees) World Vision, Save the Children and IRC. VenEsperanza has reached, to date, over 470,000 individuals with Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance (MPCA). Mercy Corps Colombia donors include USAID/BHA, BPRM (State Department), European Commission, the Howard G. Buffett Foundation, the Conrad Hilton Foundation, and the Starbucks Foundation. Additionally, we have become a trusted partner of several key Government of Colombia agencies including the President’s Office, Foreign Affairs, The national Land Agency, the national Victim’s Unit, the National Learning Service, and the Agency for Child and Family Welfare.
