UNV Ukraine
Explosive Ordnance Victim Assistance Coordinator до UNDP
FULL TIME
October 7, 2024
As per International Mine Action Standard (IMAS) 13.10, EO victims are individuals who have directly experienced an accident with EO, as well as those who were indirectly affected — their families or communities contaminated with explosive ordnance. It should be noted that the term «direct victim» refers to a person who has experienced an EO accident, whether or not that person survived, while the term «survivor» is often used to describe a direct victim who has been injured and/or impaired, but who has not been killed as a result of the accident with EO. UNDP Ukraine advocates for the continuous integration of victim assistance into national policies and legal frameworks, spanning disability rights, health, education, employment, and poverty reduction.
The national authorities, as well as oblast and local authorities are working on improvement of a wide set of policies regulating the sphere of assistance to EO victims, including the National Mine Action Strategy, which was approved by the Decree of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated June 28, 2024 No. 616. UNDP supports the implementation of the National Mine Action Strategy, in particular through a series of measures aimed at achieving Strategic Goal 2 «Reducing the impact of explosive objects on the life and health of the population «. UNDP has developed the Model of Victim Assistance (Model) in Mine Action in Ukraine that serves as a roadmap for collaboration among national and local authorities, international partners, and civil society, securing a holistic and comprehensive approach to addressing the needs of EO victims.
During 2023 2024, UNDP provided support to selected affected communities in Chernihiv and Kyiv regions in implementing the Model to increase the capacity of their facilities and institutions to provide assistance to EO victims by purchasing equipment and training staff. Currently, UNDP is extending its support to other regions most affected by explosive devices in Ukraine, including the Kharkiv region.
In this context, the Rehabilitation and Disability Inclusion (R&DI) team seeks to urgently equip the regional and local authorities, as well as members of selected communities of Kharkiv region with a support to implement the UNDP developed Model for EO victim assistance based on the international standard IMAS 13.10.
