HI recruits 01 Humanitarian Programme Analyst

Outraged at the injustice faced by people with disabilities and vulnerable populations, we aspire to a world of solidarity and inclusion, enriched by our differences, where everyone can live in dignity.

The Handicap International network has changed its name to “Humanity & Inclusion”.

HI, Humanity & Inclusion is an independent and impartial international aid organisation operating in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflict and disaster. Working alongside people with disabilities and vulnerable populations, HI takes action and takes notice, to meet their basic needs, improve their living conditions and promote respect for their dignity and fundamental rights.

HI implements activities in 63 countries in support of vulnerable people, refugees, internally displaced people, people affected by natural disasters and people who have been injured or are exposed to the dangers of weapons, munitions and explosive devices.

HI’s employment policy is disability inclusive.

 CONTEXT:

The Institute on Humanitarian Action’s general mandate is to support and provide guidance to the Federal Network in the implementation of its values and principles of intervention and to ensure the effective dissemination and sharing of its reflections.

In addition to analysing and keeping watch over Humanity and Inclusion’s working environments and the operating conditions under which our actions for solidarity are implemented, the Institute also examines ethical dilemmas and considers the milestones that have impacted and shaped the Federal Network’s history in order to ensure that experiences may be shared and learned from.
