Jobdescription JJOOBB DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN Preliminary Job Information Job Title FIELD COORDINATOR Country & Base of posting KOSTYANTINOVKA (MAINLY) , BAKHMUT AND HORLIVKA / DONETSK Reports to HEAD OF MISSION General Information on the Mission Context Première Urgence Internationale (PUI) is a non-governmental, non-profit, non-political and non-religious international aid organization. Our teams are committed to supporting civilians’ victims of marginalization and exclusion, or hit by natural disasters, wars and economic collapses, by answering their fundamental needs. Our aim is to provide emergency relief to uprooted people in order to help them recover their dignity and regain self-sufficiency. The association leads in average 140 projects by year in the following sectors of intervention: food security, health, nutrition, construction and rehabilitation of infrastructures, water, sanitation, hygiene and economic recovery. PUI is providing assistance to around 4 million people in 22 countries – in Africa, Asia, Middle East, Caucasus and Europe. Since April of 2014, Eastern Ukraine has been experiencing significant armed conflict; the Ukrainian Army is being forced to ward off pro- Russian separatist groups. A significant part of the Donetsk and Lugansk Oblasts (regions) are now controlled by separatists, who have declared the independence of two new states, still unrecognized by the international community: "Donetsk People's Republic" and "Lugansk People's Republic." Despite the signing of a ceasefire agreement between the Ukrainian authorities and the separatists, fighting has persisted, causing a considerable number of casualties. In Summer 2016 intense, indiscriminate shelling continues in densely populated areas in different locations along the frontline in eastern Ukraine. As a result of the escalation of armed hostilities, bus stops and public transport, marketplaces, schools and kindergartens, hospitals and residential areas continue to be indiscriminately shelled in clear breach of international humanitarian law. The conflict has had an extremely negative impact on the population living in the region which amounts to more than 5 million and has caused the displacement of 1.4 million people mostly concentrated in the areas closer to the conflict zone. Humanitarian access to certain areas remains very limited, particularly in zones where armed hostilities are taking place, and hampering the delivery of humanitarian assistance to the most vulnerable people who are in need of humanitarian aid due to the combined impact of conflict, displacement and extreme poverty. Since the beginning of the conflict, population faces shortage in food, health services, basic household items and shelter, and suffer of psychological distress. PUI’s strategy / position in the country PUI priority is to improve or restore equitable access to quality health services as well as to water, sanitation and hygiene for the most vulnerable population living in cities located along the contact line in the Donetsk Oblast. PUI focus of provision of humanitarian aid to vulnerable population within the conflict-affected area employing complex approach strategy based on technical, medical and non-medical expertise. History of the mission and current programs Premiere Urgence Internationale opened its mission in Ukraine in the beginning of 2015 after identification of crucial humanitarian needs in Eastern Ukraine linked to the intensification of the military conflict. Thanks to CDC (Centre de Crise of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of France) and ECHO funding’s, PUI has started to provide humanitarian assistance for the most vulnerable population in target cities of Kostiantynivka (GCA) and Horlivka (NGCA) in April 2015. PUI provided aid on both sides of the contact line in order to ensure neutrality and equity. The assistance aimed at improving healthcare for the most vulnerable population. The intervention included access to free medicines through voucher system and medical prescriptions issued by doctors, provision of medical and non-medical equipment and consumables to health facilities, rehabilitation of the most life-saving wards of health facilities damaged by shelling, and provision of fresh food to canteens of health facilities in NGCA. Currently PUI is running a second ECHO project with the same above components in GCA (Government-controlled area) and NGCA (Non-Governmental Controlled area) in Donetsk Oblast, with exception of a fresh food component which was found non- relevant. Starting from August 1st 2016, with the funding of OFDA, PUI is running two first aid points (FAPs) located at the exit-entry check points Zaitseve and Mayorsk, providing first aid care and stabilization, followed by emergency call for ambulance when required for people crossing check points between government controlled areas and non-government controlled areas – both ways. Due to the prolonged amount of time required to cross the line of contact, as well as a lack of appropriate facilities, people daily seek medical attention at first aid points. In addition, PUI provides drinking water and water for sanitation needs, as well as access to latrines and garbage collection. Due to harsh weather conditions and possible consequent medical complications, paper hats are distributed in summer and heating points will be organized in winter. Moreover, PUI hands out information leaflets on important topics. Page 1 / 5 New needs assessments were carried out in August 2016 regarding WASH and Health needs along the cities of the contact line and new project proposals have been developed on the basis of the assessment.

INTRODUCTION The demarcation line (the line of contact)1 and the ‘grey zone’ between the government-controlled2 and uncontrolled territories3 of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions separates the parties to the conflict in the east of Ukraine. The areas controlled by the Ukrainian authorities and bordering the ‘grey zone’ are very politically sensitive, highly militarised, and fall under a special governance regime that is different from the rest of the country. In the absence of a comprehensive political settlement and amid uncertain prospects, it is unclear how long this situation will remain. It is highly likely that over the next few years, Ukrainians in areas adjacent to the contact line will live under very particular and unusual governance structures, and in varying degrees of danger.
