ALIMA Emergency Medical Referent Jobs 2022 – Nigeria NGO Jobs. ALIMA Nigeria looking for “Emergency Medical Referent”. Applicants with a Essential Medical degree may apply on or before 23 November 2022.
The story of ALIMA began in 2009 in Niger. While the entire medical profession witnessed an alarming peak of acute malnutrition and increasing infant mortality rates, the health structures for managing malnutrition were becoming increasingly rare.
The year before, many international NGOs had been expelled from the country. Local NGOs were the only ones left to act, but they lacked resources. From these conditions came the idea to create a new model of humanitarian organization: an African medical alliance connecting national NGOs and international research institutes.
