The organisation works alongside people with disabilities and vulnerable populations, taking action and bearing witness in order to respond to their essential needs, improve their living conditions and promote respect for their dignity and fundamental rights.\nSince its creation in 1982, HI has run development programmes in more than 60 countries and responded to numerous emergencies. Today, we have a budget of approximately 255 million euros, with 4794 employees worldwide.\nAt Handicap International-Humanity & Inclusion, we truly believe in the importance of inclusion and diversity within our organisation. This is why we are engaged to a disability policy to encourage the inclusion and integration of people with disabilities.\nPlease indicate if you require any special accommodation, even at the first interview. For more information about the organisation: www.hi.org\nJOB CONTEXT:\nSince January 2024, HI has been responding to Sudan’s crisis. Our main activities are Physical Rehabilitation, Atlas Logistique, Basic needs, and IHA (Inclusive Humanitarian Action). HI is further engaged at the humanitarian coordination level to mainstream disability inclusion throughout the humanitarian response.\nHI plans to scale up its response from both geographic and modalities/sectorial perspectives. In particular, HI is deploying emergency response teams in Darfur, to setup its operations and initiate its response in the western parts of Sudan. The advertised vacancy is to be part of that team.\nTawila is a remote town in North Darfur, Sudan, currently hosting a very large population of internally displaced people affected by the ongoing conflict. Living and working in Tawila means operating in a highly challenging humanitarian and security environment, with limited infrastructure and very basic living conditions. Good level of internet access, and no specific issue regarding the water supply. Food supplies and other essential goods can be difficult to obtain, and access to healthcare is very limited (Medical evacuation service is available by ambulance for Chad). Movement is highly restricted and must follow strict security procedures, with travel outside the immediate operational area subject to security clearance. Working conditions are demanding, with high humanitarian needs and a constantly changing context requiring flexibility and strong resilience. Despite these constraints, Tawila offers expatriate staff the opportunity to work closely with affected communities and national colleagues in a context where humanitarian assistance is critically needed.\nTravel to other parts of Darfur is planned, including Nyala, Zalengei and Geinena.\nYOUR MISSION:\nUnder the responsibility of the Program Director, you, as the Area Manager, contribute to the national strategies in alignment with global priorities.
