ALIMA supports two health and nutrition projects in Borno State, in Monguno and Maiduguri.Following a United Nations alert in May about the dire situation of people displaced by conflict in northeastern Nigeria, ALIMA conducted an exploratory mission in Monguno, a city in Borno State where more than 100,000 displaced people are seeking refuge. Working alongside the Ministry of Health, ALIMA vaccinated children against measles. ALIMA found that more than 40% of children were suffering from acute malnutrition, 13 % of whom were suffering from severe acute malnutrition and at a high risk of death. Faced with this major emergency, ALIMA deployed additional resources and has now opened 5 clinics to provide urgent medical care to displaced people in Monguno. ALIMA teams on the field are providing over 1,000 medical consultations per day, a figure that reveals how alarming the health situation is and the lack of other actors in Monguno, since ALIMA is the only INGO to cover health and nutrition at the moment for over 150,000 people, all the more that internally displaced people are continuing to arrive in Monguno every day.Maiduguri, the capital of Borno State, has seen its population more than double with the influx of people displaced from other areas of the state. Especially in Muna where about 50 000 IDP moved into the Muna Garage camp and all around, the bad sanitarian, medical and nutritional situation has to be addressed. ALIMA is opening a clinic by the end of August, and already provide general consultations for children and adults. Malnutrition cases are managed by the teams, but a larger screening would show how numerous they really are. ALIMA plans to enlarge its activities to provision of services for pregnant women and capacity to take in charge victims of sexual violence.LOCATION: Maiduguri (Borno State) Nigeria.INTERNAL & EXTERNAL RELATIONSHIPInternalHR Coordinator– line managementCoordination and project HR team – exchange of information, reporting, collaboration, coordinationHiring managers – exchange of information, collaboration, coordinationMaiduguri and field-based HR team: collaboration, coordination, and exchange of informationExternalJob applicants and inquiriesExternal job advertising agencies – websites, newspapers, etc.MISSION AND MAIN ACTIVITIESMajor Responsibilities:
