National Senior Consultant for Adolescent Mental Health at UNICEF:Deadline: Fri Jul 10 2020 23:55:00 GMT+0200 (South Africa Standard Time)

0

Job Number: 532542

Locations: Africa: Rwanda

Work Type : Consultancy

UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.

Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.

And we never give up.

For every child, Health

How can you make a difference?

Background and Purpose
 
Adolescence (10–19 years) is a unique and formative time. Multiple physical, emotional and social changes, including exposure to poverty, abuse or violence, can make adolescents vulnerable to mental health problems. Promoting psychological well-being and protecting adolescents from adverse experiences and risk factors that may impact their potential to thrive are critical for their well-being during adolescence and for their physical and mental health in adulthood. While adolescence is often seen as the healthiest time of life, it also represents a period of vulnerability for mental health. Depression, anxiety, eating disorders, self-harm and suicide are primary causes of disability, disease and mortality among adolescents. It is estimated that one in six people are aged 10–19 years. Mental health conditions account for 16% of the global burden of disease and injury in people aged 10–19 years. Half of all mental health conditions start by 14 years of age, but most cases are undetected and untreated. Globally, depression is one of the leading causes of illness and disability among adolescents. Suicide is the third leading cause of death in 15-19-year-olds.
The consequences of not addressing adolescent mental health conditions extend to adulthood, impairing both physical and mental health and limiting opportunities to lead fulfilling lives as adults. The social and financial costs of mental health conditions and associated disabilities are significant. The World Economic Forum estimates mental health conditions will cost the global economy $16 trillion in the next 20 years if not addressed.

Adolescent mental health remains stigmatized, underfunded and underserved in most countries, rich and poor. Less than 1% of governmental health budgets in LIC’s go towards mental health and there are large disparities in access to care and support worldwide, and particularly in LMIC’s.

Purpose

The purpose of this consultancy will be to conduct a landscape assessment of needs, entry points in the health system and priority interventions for an adolescent mental health programme in Rwanda.
This will comprise desk reviews, focus group discussions and key informant interviews to document the situation of adolescent mental health in Rwanda, identify potential entry points in the health system, and to inform the government and its partners on priority interventions for Adolescent Mental Health programme. The landscape assessment of Adolescent Mental Health will identify effective and promising practices based on global experiences; identify gaps to be addressed and key research questions; and offer recommendations that can be implemented based on Rwandan context.

UNICEF’s Strategic Plan 2018-2021 outlines a commitment to promote and protect the physical, mental, and social wellbeing of children and adolescents.

Adolescent suicide and mental health are part of this learning agenda and UNICEF is working with partners to build the evidence base for developing appropriate and scalable models for response with programmatic emphasis on prevention and promotion of mental wellbeing. A few key areas of work include:
• Country level technical support in designing, testing and evaluating i) promotive and preventive measures (such as safe spaces for adolescents in schools, youth centres, peer counselling, parenting programmes, and the provision of mental health and psychosocial support interventions; and ii) screening and referral measures (through strengthened health systems and community and school- based mental health services).
