HI presentation :
Outraged by the injustice faced by people with disabilities and vulnerable populations, we aspire to a world of solidarity and inclusion, enriched by our differences, where everyone can live in dignity.
Handicap International is changing his name and becomes « Humanity & Inclusion ». HI, Humanity & Inclusion is an independent and impartial aid and development organization with no religious or political affiliations operating in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflict and disaster. We work alongside people with disabilities and vulnerable people to help meet their essential needs, improve their living conditions and promote respect for their dignity and fundamental rights.
Since the organization was first founded in 1982, we have set up development programs in more than 55 countries and responded to many emergencies. Today we have a budget of around 150 million euros, with 3500 employees worldwide.

Since 2014, HI’s Libya mission was managed remotely from neighboring Tunisia, based in the same office as HI Tunisia. In mid-2018 however HI began a phased redeployment of international staff, with 4 out of 8 expatriates now formally based in Misrata. Regular (monthly) visits are required by all other international staff to Libya to support programme activities and ensure a close follow up and training of national staff.
Sharing an office with HI Tunisia, the Administrative Coordinator will play an important role in ensuring good coordination between the teams and seeking advice from HI Tunisia’s support departments to ensure administrative and legal synergies between the missions.
From operational bases in Tripoli and Misrata, and Benghazi from the last quarter of 2018, HI is currently implementing a humanitarian programme with the following activities :
- Provision of comprehensive rehabilitation services including physical therapy and psychosocial support for persons with disabilities/injuries, distribution of assistive devices as required ;
- Capacity building, technical support and donations of assistive devices and/or materials and equipment to health partners (hospitals, rehabilitation centres and local NGOs) ;
- Training on inclusion principles to other humanitarian actors and health workers ;
- Provision of Risk Education to conflict affected communities on the risks and effects caused by mines and explosive remnants of war (ERW) ;
- Clearance and destruction of ERW in post-conflict areas.
