September 21, 2020

BACKGROUND

The respect of Gender Equality principle is strongly embedded in the fundamental principles of Rwanda’s Constitution of June 2003 as revised in 2015 and has witnessed a continued supportive political will. Aligning with the Constitution, the Government of Rwanda placed gender equality as one of the key factors contributing to the country’s sustainable development, good governance and inclusiveness. To implement this principle, several policies, laws, strategies and institutional frameworks have been put in place to support the translation of such commitments into action.

Gender equality is a human right, good governance, democracy, sustainable development and inclusiveness principle as enshrined in the fundamental principles of the Constitution of the Republic of Rwanda adopted in 2003 and revised in 2015 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically goal 5. As such, the public sector, private sector, non-governmental and religious institutions are responsible for mainstreaming gender in their policies, plans and processes to ensure inclusive and transformative development.
To ensure compliance to gender equality principles, the Gender Monitoring Office (GMO) has been ascribed the responsibility to ensure that public and private institutions, civil society and faith-based organizations contribute to the attainment of national commitments as enshrined in the National constitution, international/regional instruments as well as policies and programs.

To guarantee that gender equality and women’s empowerment principles are mainstreamed in policies and programs of different sectors and at different levels, GMO through its Five-year Strategic plan (2017–2022) aspires to build accountability systems and mechanisms for the sustainability and acceleration of gender equality

To achieve its mission, GMO works with various partners including the United Nations Systems in Rwanda through the Gender Joint Programme dubbed ‘’ Leveraging the Full Potential of Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment to Achieve Rwanda’s Transformation ‘’. The Joint Programme is contributing to further strengthening accountability to gender equality both at the central and decentralised levels.

In line with the above, UNWOMEN on behalf of Gender Monitoring Office is seeking to recruit a dynamic and self-motivated program manager that will coordinate and lead all Gender Joint programme activities planned and implemented through GMO while also contributing to the global picture of institutional development.

Digital Enablement Strategist at LifeNet International : Closing date: October 31,2020

September 21, 2020

Please click here to review the full job description and qualifications for the position of Digital Enablement Strategist.

Organization: LifeNet International

Preferred Position Locations: Kigali, Rwanda;Washington, DC; Kampala, Uganda; or Nairobi, Kenya.

Reports to: President

Member of: LifeNet Leadership Team

Supervises: One Uganda-based digital team member

Applications Open Until: October 31, 2020

Vision for Digital Enablement:

LifeNet International has improved over 9 million patient visits to date with a comprehensive, face-to-face (analog) training and support model which improves health workers’ and managers’ knowledge and implementation of best practices. As a result, participating Christian health facilities in sub-Saharan Africa have successfully doubled the quality of care they provide to patients and improved their financial and administrative management. This model leverages the investments of the local church and saves lives.

While these results are exciting and should be celebrated, we recognize that it is imperative for our future model and approach to wisely incorporate a greater menu of digital tools and methods. This will maximize our efficiency and effectiveness in reaching significantly more facilities and health workers with life-saving training and support. We have already begun this digital enablement process in piecemeal fashion via WhatsApp groups, text messaging, digitation of hard copy training materials, and other digital training and communication methods, but a much more robust strategy is required for long term success.

On our pathway of continuous improvement, the first part of 2020 has been an important inflection point for LifeNet. Faced with new challenges brought on by the coronavirus pandemic, we are embracing a spirit of innovation and seek to capitalize on this moment in time to further develop our model and increase our impact. In short, now is the most opportune moment to intentionally transition to full digital enablement. This transition will position LifeNet to:

Significantly increase the number of partner healthcare facilities;
Improve quality of care for millions more, saving and improving more lives;
Expand our work to include community health workers and referral hospitals; and
Implement additional digital innovations in the healthcare sector.

The newly created position of Digital Enablement Strategist will be instrumental in realizing this new digital vision by creating and implementing a new digital enablement strategy and related plans. The right candidate for this position will be able to quickly toggle between strategic thinking and tactical execution, and will have a strong skill set in project management. He/she will have a strong track record in delivering digital enablement outputs and outcomes.

Job Description & Qualifications

To Apply

Your application must consist of a cover letter, your curriculum vitae/résumé, and contact information for two references. Please submit all applications via email to recruiting@LNinternational.org with the subject: “Digital Enablement Strategist.” Applications close October 31, 2020.
