Since January 2024, HI has been responding to Sudan’s crisis. HI’s joint multisectoral response in Gedaref State, implemented with a Sudanese partner NGO, is already providing physical and functional rehabilitation services in healthcare centers and at community level, as well as MHPSS services, including individual and group counselling. HI is further engaged at the humanitarian coordination level to mainstream disability inclusion throughout the humanitarian response.

HI is scaling up its response from both geographic and modalities/sectorial perspectives. In particular, HI has deployed emergency response teams in Darfur, to setup its operations and initiate its response in the western parts of Sudan. Since 2026, HI team is also active in other sectors such as Functional and Physical rehabilitation, and mutualized logistics. The advertised vacancy is to be part of that team.

The main office is currently in Tawila, North Darfur, but HI is also operational in Geneina, West Darfur, and exploring having an operational presence in Nyala, South Darfur.
