Main duties
Since its creation in 2009, ALIMA has treated more than 10 million patients, and now operates in 12 African countries. In 2019, we developed 41 humanitarian medical response projects to meet the needs of populations affected by conflict, epidemics and extreme poverty. All these projects are in support of national health authorities through 330 health facilities (including 28 hospitals and 300 health centers). We work in partnership, especially with local NGOs, as soon as possible to ensure that our patients benefit from the expertise where it is located, whether at the level of their country or the rest of the world. In addition, to improve the humanitarian response, we carry out operational and clinical research projects, particularly in the field of combating malnutrition and hemorrhagic viral fevers. ALIMA also conducts operations in response to the covid-19 pandemic throughout our missions.

Job overview
ALIMA has had an operational presence in Ituri since 2022, particularly in the Health Zones of Bunia and Rwampara, and benefits from a good knowledge of the context and local health actors. As soon as the Ebola outbreak was declared, ALIMA activated its emergency system, mobilized its teams and prepositioned stocks, and obtained accreditation from the National Institute of Public Health (INSP) to officially participate in the response.
ALIMA has recognized expertise in the management of viral hemorrhagic fever epidemics in DRC and internationally. The organization has played a major role in several Ebola outbreaks in the DRC (11th to 16th epidemics) as well as Guinea, Uganda, Equatorial Guinea and Rwanda, through case management, surveillance, infection prevention and control (ICP) and capacity building for health workers.
Since 2020, ALIMA has relied on a national plan to prepare for and respond to viral hemorrhagic fevers, enabling it to rapidly deploy qualified personnel and medical and WASH resources. The organization is also behind the CUBE (Bio-Secure Emergency Room for Epidemics) concept, an internationally recognized innovation for the safe management of patients with highly infectious diseases.
More recently, ALIMA participated in the response to the previous Ebola outbreak in Bulape as well as the response to the Mpox epidemic in DRC in 2024.–2025, confirming its ability to respond quickly and effectively to major health emergencies.
Today, ALIMA intervenes in Bunia, Rwampara and Nizi with
