Do you have a background in technical project management, preferably from a startup environment or a similar dynamic environment and possess strong communication skills to translate technical concepts for diverse audiences? We are looking for someone who is able to bridge the gap between app developers and community stakeholders, such as diaspora and local Ukrainian NGOs, ensuring seamless communication, technical understanding, and user-centric design.

Who are we?

DEMAC is a global initiative that works for a deeper understanding of diasporas as humanitarian actors and strives for better coordination between diaspora organizations, local networks and the institutional humanitarian system. DEMAC is hosted by The Danish Refugee Council and funded by USAID.

Founded in 2015, DEMAC aims to increase engagement, visibility, and recognition for diaspora organizations within the humanitarian system. By fostering a deeper understanding of diasporas as transnational humanitarian actors, DEMAC contributes to transforming the humanitarian ecosystem.

The term diaspora refers to migrants, refugees, and their descendants living outside their country of birth or ancestry yet still maintaining meaningful emotional and material ties to that country. In humanitarian emergencies and fragile situations, many diasporas seek to contribute to improving situations on the ground and assist people in need in their country of origin. With their close links and networks in country of origin as well as abroad, diasporas are able to establish and sustain development initiatives, and to mobilise quickly in a humanitarian crisis.

Since 2021, DEMAC has mapped and engaged with over 100 Ukrainian Diaspora Organizations globally. The goal: To support Ukrainian diaspora organizations in coordinating aid assistance with local NGOs and institutional humanitarian actors and creating a network for collaboration. Currently, DEMAC is expanding its operations in Denmark and Ukraine to strengthen the engagement between local Ukrainian NGOs and diaspora organizations globally for skills and knowledge exchange.
