Humanity & Inclusion is an independent and impartial aid organisation working in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflict and disaster. 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.

Since 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.

At 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.

JOB CONTEXT:

In addition, HI has started to implement humanitarian mine action activities in the south of Yemen from 2022.

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE POSITION:

Outside movements are possible for some extra-professional activities in Sanaa and Aden. All movements are done by car. HI has set up a curfew. The situation is relatively calm in Sana’a and Hajjah nowadays. However, the security is volatile in southern areas.

The mission has put in place adequate security rules and processes to allow teams to work in a safe environment. Despite the country’s situation, the risk for expatriates remains limited and no critical incident happened over the past period.

Local medical capacity remains a concern for the person with fragile health, ongoing treatment and that needs close medical follow up.
