UN Refugee Response Manager Jobs in Ethiopia

Following the violent fight between the government of South Sudan and the rebel group on 15 December 2014 and subsequent continued fights, more than a half million people have been displaced in Southern Sudan.

People have fled to Uganda and Ethiopia to save their lives. Ethiopia has so far received over 100,000 refugees in Gambella.

Among the refugees the majority are women and children.

Oxfam is responding for emergency water provision, latrine construction and PHP in the refugee camps.

As the refugees are being relocated, the services need scaling up to meet the urgent humanitarian needs of people.

Oxfam is actively participating in the coordination forum. The other key stakeholders are UNHCR, UNICEF, World Vision and NRC who are involved in sustainable water systems and shelter/latrines constructions.

Oxfam has provided Water Scheme at Jewi Camp and completed the project successfully and handed over to the local partner.

The Jewi water scheme is benefiting both the refugees and the host community. Oxfam currently is undertaking integrated WASH in the Nguenyyiel camp and Pamdong reception centre and employed more than 45 staff members.
