Handicap International/Humanity & Inclusion (HI) is an independent and impartial international solidarity organization, which intervenes in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflicts and disasters. Working alongside people with disabilities and vulnerable populations, it acts and speaks out to meet their essential needs, improve their living conditions and promote respect for their dignity and fundamental rights.

This is why we are engaged to a disability policy to encourage the inclusion and integration of people with disabilities. Please indicate if you require any special accommodation, even at the first interview.

• Armed Violence Reduction: Recent and ongoing attacks dangerously exacerbated Explosive Ordnance (EO) contamination in Ukraine. In light of this, HI is conducting a multi-pronged approach to EO Risk Education and Conflict Preparedness and Protection (CPP), adaptable to the evolution of the conflict.

  HI has 3 hubs, one in the East (based in Dnipro), one in Mykolaiv, and one in the West (based in Lviv), with a Coordination office in Kyiv. There are activities in other cities like Kharkiv and Poltava. HI staffs are accommodated in guesthouses or in a hotel (depending on the location), usually nearby HI offices, with restaurants, cafes, shopping centers within walking distance, and near a shelter (the shelter is either in the building or very easy to reach). 

  The security in Mykolaiv city and surroundings area of intervention remain relatively stable, although air alarms tend to disrupt work and out of activities.\u202f\u202f
