HI Rehabilitation Project Manager Jobs in Ethiopia


Jobs Context

  • Long time tensions between the Federal Government and Tigray’s ruling party (Tigray People's Liberation Front - TPLF) have been escalating since the unilaterally held regional elections on Sept.

  • 2020, while the national elections were postponed due to the COVID-19. On 3 Nov.

  • 2020, the TPLF attacked the Ethiopian National Defense Forces (ENDF) Northern Command. In response, the Ethiopian Prime Minister ordered a military offensive against the TPLF.

  • Four months after, while the war was officially declared over after capturing Mekelle in December 2020, localized fighting continues.

  • There are 735 000 internally displaced persons in Tigray only 60 000 persons fled to neighboring Sudan and the Eritreans refugees present in the region prior the conflict faced the destruction of their camps and forced return to Eritrea.

  • Several reports started to flag serious human rights and international humanitarian law violations.

  • The humanitarian community support high-level advocacy, negotiating access to scale up operational capacity.

  • The insecurity, the ongoing fighting, the bureaucratic hurdles and the telecommunications cuts off are the main challenges for humanitarian actors.

  • In view of the dire humanitarian crisis taking place in Tigray, HI Ethiopia, not present in this area, has launched an initial assessment to support the definition of an operational strategy.

  • This assessment provided many information on the situation, access, opportunities, etc.

  • The main conclusion is that the needs are acute, the response is not sufficient, the donors are positioning themselves, the security situation is manageable following strict protocols and the access - although very restricted - is possible.

  • In this context, HI does have an added value in responding to this humanitarian crisis and should position itself very fast as a stakeholder in this emergency response.

  • Following this needs assessment, HI designed a global strategic operational framework to address the identified needs with the following pillars:

  • Pillar 1 : Integrated approach between MHPSS, Protection, IHA and Functional & Physical Rehabilitation, to improve access to services and wellbeing of the conflict affected populations including the most vulnerable and persons with specific needs

  • Pillar 2: Contribute to improve access and ensure delivery of assistance to the most vulnerable living in Tigray while limiting the use of logistics negative coping mechanisms.
    HI is therefore mobilizing resources to open its program based on this strategy.
