PUBLIC HEALTH NUTRITION CONSULTANT / GOVERNMENT ANALYST II

Jhpiego

<div>Overview:
<div>
Jhpiego is an international non-profit health organization affiliated with The Johns Hopkins University, USA. For over 50 years and across more than 150 countries, Jhpiego has worked to improve the health of women and families by strengthening health systems and building local capacity.</div><div>
In Pakistan, Jhpiego is supporting the Government of Pakistan, through the Federal Directorate of Immunization and provincial EPIs, in the introduction and scale-up of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine under Gavi-supported initiatives. As part of ongoing efforts, there is a critical need to strengthen institutional mechanisms for both:</div><ul><li>
Education sector engagement (particularly for school-based HPV vaccine delivery and routinization)
</li><li>Civil Society Organization (CSO) engagement for community mobilization and demand generation
</li></ul><div>While both areas are recognized as essential, systemic gaps persist, including:</div><ul><li>
Absence of standardized SOPs and operational guidance for health&ndash;education coordination
</li><li>Lack of clearly defined roles and responsibilities for education actors (e.g., DEOs, school administrators, teachers)
</li><li>Limited institutionalization of CSO engagement within immunization systems
</li><li>Fragmented and non-endorsed materials for CSO-led demand generation
</li></ul><div>To address these gaps, Jhpiego seeks to engage a senior-level consultant to develop, validate, and support the institutionalization of SOPs, guidelines, and operational frameworks for both the education sector and CSO engagement within national and provincial immunization systems.</div>

<p><b>
For every child, </b><b><i>the right to Nutrition</i></b></p>
<p>
Over the past 30 years, Egypt has made significant progress in improving child and maternal survival, and nutrition outcomes, despite these notable achievements, considerable challenges persist. The country faces a triple burden of malnutrition, characterized by stunting, anemia, and an alarming increase in childhood overweight. Malnutrition is a substantial burden on Egypt's economy, hindering the potential of its young people and children, resulting in losses estimated at 1.9% of Egypt&rsquo;s GDP due to reduced productivity and increased healthcare costs.</p>
<p>
The Government of Egypt has prioritized quality improvement in Primary Health Care (PHC) emphasizing early detection and management of preventable diseases and conditions including anemia. The Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP) has requested UNICEF support in establishing a central laboratory support unit within the Primary Healthcare Sector. This unit will provide technical guidance, standardized SOPs, and cumulative KPI monitoring for basic laboratory services (blood profiles, urine analysis, and maternal/child health monitoring such as anemia screening). The initiative hopes to align with global laboratory standards, UNICEF&rsquo;s PHC operational framework, and MoHP national guidelines.</p>
<p>
Since 2018, UNICEF has supported the Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP) in strengthening laboratory services and supply chain management, with a particular focus on addressing anemia among pregnant women and children under five. Early interventions included studies on micronutrient needs and supply chain management, the development of a micronutrient calculator used nationally for three years, and a micronutrient manual.</p>
<p>
Building on this foundation, UNICEF also analyzed the administrative management of laboratories and developed a laboratory supplies calculation tool, with specific attention to anemia screening. While initial efforts did not lead to the establishment of a central unit, they provided valuable insights into system gaps and opportunities.</p>
<p>
In 2023, UNICEF successfully piloted an initiative in Gharbia and Beheira governorates. This initiative institutionalized assessment modality for laboratory workers, created a training package, and implemented training through MoHP structures. These experiences demonstrated the feasibility and impact of strengthening laboratory services at the primary healthcare level.</p>
<p>
The current consultancy builds on this trajectory, responding to MoHP&rsquo;s request to establish a central laboratory support unit within the Primary Healthcare Sector. The unit will provide technical guidance, standardized SOPs, and cumulative KPI monitoring, ensuring alignment with MoHP national guidelines, WHO laboratory standards, and UNICEF&rsquo;s PHC operational framework.</p>
<p><b>
How can you make a difference?</b></p>
<p>
The overall objective of the consultancy is to establish and operationalize a central laboratory support unit for primary healthcare services. Standardize laboratory processes and SOPs in line with MoHP guidelines and best global practices. Establish monitoring and evaluation mechanisms, including cumulative KPIs. Build capacity within MoHP&rsquo;s primary healthcare sector for sustainable management of the new unit and handover functions to the assigned focal person.</p>
<p>
The scope of work of this consultancy includes:</p>
<ul><li><b>System Design &amp; Development</b>: Map existing laboratory services; design central support system; integrating WHO essential diagnostics frameworks and national standards.</li></ul>
<ul><li><b>SOP Development</b>: In collaboration with MoHP departments and through field visits, draft SOPs for specimen collection, analysis, reporting, and documentation; based on the basic benefit package of the PHC possibly in bilingual copies (Arabic/English).</li></ul>

</p><p>PROGRAM: Project HOPE</p><p><br>
</p><p>POSITION: Consultant - Integrated Digital Health Initiative</p>
<p><b>A.</b> <b>Background</b></p>
<p>Project HOPE is advancing an Integrated Digital Health Initiative intended to strengthen frontline service delivery by improving the quality, completeness, structure, and downstream usability of data captured within existing frontline health workflows and digital systems. The initiative centres on an augmentation layer that operates alongside existing platforms to support documentation, standardisation, summarisation, workflow assistance, and preparation of cleaner data for reporting, supervision, and approved system exchange.</p>
