Field Coordinator

COOPI has been present in Sudan since 2004 providing humanitarian assistance to the affected population in North Darfur that for a long time has been the scene of armed clashes and particularly hit by periods of severe natural disasters.Recently COOPI expanded the area of intervention to East of Sudan responding to floods and eefugees from Tigray emergencies.

Following the civil war in nearby Ethiopian region of Tigray, thousands of people fled through the border in search of protection. This made COOPI in front line to provide life saving assistance in the sector of WaSH. This crisis moved from Ethiopia a large number of refugees, 60.000 (UNHCR estimation) with a perspective of a medium-long emergency response intervention in Kassala and Gedaref State. Currently COOPI is implementing the country project portfolio through three Area PMUs: El Fasher (West), Kassala and Gedaref (East) and Khartoum. To allow the management of these activities and to ensure access to basic services for the hosting population and refugees, different interventions are going to be carried out, in the field of water-hygiene and food security and camp management.
