Background

The current conflict in eastern Ukraine has left a considerable amount of Unexploded Ordnance (UXO). This is putting civilians at risk, as the UXO is present in densely populated and urban areas.

Danish Refugee Council (DRC)/Danish Demining Group (DDG) wants to facilitate recovery in post conflict zones by piloting a web portal and parallel SMS service to strengthen the provision of Mine Risk Education (MRE) to the civilians as well as strengthening the efforts to locate areas where UXO pose hazards to the population through crowd sourcing. The objective is to enable mine action responders to address the needs of the population more efficiently and provide the crisis-affected population with timely and actionable information. As the project is a pilot, there is a strong focus on ensuring that learning is captured and shared in the humanitarian mine action community. This web portal and SMS service is planned to be piloted in the Slovyansk area, in Donetsk Oblast.

The project in Ukraine is part of a global pilot project. A similar project is piloted in Vietnam.

For implementing the pilot project in Ukraine, DDG is therefore looking for a qualified Pilot Project Manager.
