Environmental Scan / Working Conditions Sudan and South Sudan have experienced political turmoil in the past and in some cases threats to security still exist. Khartoum is relatively safe, but the delegate will need to be conscious of their personal safety. Travel to program areas may be required, which means the delegate maybe accommodated in housing that lacks basic amenities including running water and electricity.

South Sudan is a new country experiencing significant political, economical, security and social turmoil. Living conditions may be shared for security and budgetary reasons.

Interested parties may submit their résumé by no later than September 21st, 2011 by visiting https://internationalcareers.redcross.ca and clicking on the vacancy.
