Emergency Field Coordinator – Dr Congo

The humanitarian needs in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) are immense. Close to two million people are internally displaced and an estimated 450,000 Congolese have sought refuge in neighbouring countries. With a long history of conflict and weak governance, the majority of DRC’s population is severely impoverished and deprived of basic services and infrastructure such as roads, drinkable water, electricity, schools, education and health centres. Human rights violations are rife.

NRC is providing protection and humanitarian assistance to IDPs, refugees and returnees through an integrated approach, with its project activities ranging from emergency response (RRMP) to early recovery (RRR). NRC has worked in the DR Congo since 2001 and contributes to the improvement of living conditions for displaced through emergency response (NFI and food distributions), food security interventions, construction of shelters and schools, education, and legal aid (ICLA). Interventions are located in North Kivu (Goma, Béni) and in South Kivu (Bukavu, Baraka).
