Hajjah and Al Khokha Governorates and it is working on the expansion of its

Yemen is one of the largest humanitarian emergencies in the
world. The operating context is uniquely complicated, and offers opportunities

of international (around 25) and national (around 280) staffs based in Sanaa,
Hodeidah, Hajjah, Aden, Amman and Djibouti.

frontlines in Hodeidah and Hajjah Governorates; articulated political situation
in Aden and an social and economical degradation in the whole country. It is
