| Overview : Over 2 million people have been internally displaced in Ethiopia mainly due to internal conflicts exacerbated by drought and other climate related disasters. These conflicts have triggered an acute humanitarian and forced displacement crisis, with devastating social and economic impacts on the population, further deepening poverty and fragility in the those affected regions. Huge damages have been inflicted upon private and public property, which has caused widespread destruction of vital infrastructure including health facilities, schools, roads, markets, farmland and water supply. UNDP is therefore seeking to recruit accomplished and highly motivated socio-economic and livelihood recovery experts (two nationals) to work on 1) Ethio-Somali and SNNP regions and 2) Oromia region; to assist the CO in developing comprehensive engagement strategy.
