Hospital Project Manager (Dnipro) – UKRAINE

HI is engaged in supporting the Ukrainian population affected by the war: since February 28, two teams left for Ukraine and the neighboring countries to analyze the context, the security, and the needs.

To date, HI continues the implementation of its program in two countries, Ukraine and Moldova, with more than 20 expatriates and more than 50 employees recruited on the spot.

More than any other, HI ensures that humanitarian actions are inclusive, allowing the most vulnerable populations (people with disabilities, elderly, sick, injured) to have access to the help they need. With a focus on physical rehabilitation, psychosocial support, shelter, access to food, water, and sanitation, explosive remnants of war risk education, and advocacy.

With its Atlas Logistics Unit, HI also ensures the delivery of humanitarian aid in hard-to-reach areas in the East for all NGOs in need thanks to its shared transport and storage activities. For more information, visit our website HERE

Health

In response to critical health needs exacerbated by damage to health infrastructure, movement bans due to ongoing conflict, and targeting health facilities in certain areas, HI aims to improve access to quality physical rehabilitation and mental health and psychosocial services (MHPSS for conflict-affected vulnerable populations ( including the injured) while strengthening the capacity of existing health structures.

Dnipro

The security situation in Dnepropetrovsk remains strong. Markets, restaurants, and cafes are open and life remains normal. From 22:00 to 6:00, there is a strict curfew as in the whole of Ukraine. In the last two months, there have been several ballistic missile attacks on the airport and military and logistics facilities on the periphery, but no impact on the city center. The nearest front line is 130 km away, completely out of reach of artillery or ground attacks. Hi, the staff in Dnepropetrovsk is currently sleeping in each room at the hotel. We opened an office a few minutes from the hotel. Within walking distance are at least 20/30 restaurants and cafes with a variety of quality dining styles, as well as a large public park and shopping center.
