About AGRA 

AGRA and its Work

AGRA is an African-led institution that actively supports the drive towards inclusive agricultural transformation and sustainable food systems. We do this by empowering the continent’s 33 million smallholder farming households to transform their agriculture from a struggle to survive to profitable businesses. The continent’s farmers regularly face challenges, and we aspire to provide uniquely African solutions that respond to their agricultural and environmental challenges, leading to increased harvests for reduced hunger and more income.

Working in alignment with the development priorities of our focus countries, we enable farmers to access improved and high-yielding seeds, gain knowledge on sustainable farming, and linkages to profitable markets.

In our work, we aspire to build the alliances, partnerships, and networks required to drive an inclusive agricultural transformation. We work with our partners to create an equitable youth-friendly environment that harnesses the youth dividend on the continent to drive growth and facilitate open employment opportunities for young women and men. We achieve our key objectives through a focus on the following four areas of intervention:

  1. Policy and state capability – We support governments in creating an enabling environment for private sector involvement in agricultural transformation.
  2. Seed systems – We trigger higher productivity by increasing the availability and access to improved seeds by farmers allowing them to increase their harvests for food security and better incomes.
  3. Sustainable farming – We support farmers in building resilient farming systems for sustained high yields through interventions such as mechanization and irrigation.
  4. Inclusive markets and trade – We work to increase the linkages between farmers, and other market actors for a positive, sustained cycle of commercialization and reinvestment.


AGRA’s 2030 Strategy

The continent has, in recent years, taken steps towards inclusive agricultural transformation resulting in notable improvements in food security, with clear progress across all AGRA’s focus countries. However, with over 20% of Africans still suffering from hunger, we need to accelerate our progress and mitigate against the growing external pressures of conflict and climate on our food systems.

AGRA 2022-2030 Strategic Framework (SF2030) demonstrates our long-term vision for how we intend to contribute to, and align with, global and continental priorities, applying a food systems lens towards the goals of zero hunger, improved nutrition, an end to poverty, and climate adaptation. We have split our Strategic Framework 2030 into two 5-year strategies so that we have a clear mid-way point to evaluate progress and re-route our strategic focus if necessary. Our 2023-2027 Strategic Plan sets out to catalyze the growth of sustainable food systems across Africa by influencing and leveraging partners to build a robust enabling environment where the private sector thrives, and smallholders are empowered to produce sufficient, healthy food.

Implementing Our New Strategy Through People

AGRA is at the threshold of a new chapter where we begin implementing our new strategy of catalyzing inclusive, resilient and sustainable agricultural transformation. At AGRA we believe Agriculture is the single greatest opportunity to deliver inclusive economic growth, jobs, and health to the African continent.

People are the heart of our organisation and remain the true drivers of our delivery and our impact.

We are excited about a new fit-for-purpose organizational structure that is largely driven by an ambition to enhance collaboration across teams and drive sustainable growth. We have therefore purposed more focus on delivery of country programs within the new strategy giving even greater attention to optimizing existing talent in addition to upscaling technical and operational resources.

We work with incredible people and partners who have roots in farming communities across the continent combined with an inclusive and diverse workforce from over 24 nationalities. Our values of (I-RISE; Integrity, Respect, Innovation, Stewardship and Equity) espouse our commitment to a call to action to go beyond ourselves as we arise and transform Africa’s Agriculture.

We are looking for people who are passionate about Africa, curious and collaborative to join our innovative, growing, and multidisciplinary team. Together, we can grow Africa’s food systems improving the livelihoods of smallholder farmers. Want to join us?

  1. BACKGROUND

Hearing loss refers to hearing loss greater than 35 decibels (dB) in the better-hearing ear. Nearly 80 percent of people with disabling hearing loss live in low- and middle-income countries. The prevalence of hearing loss increases with age; among those older than 60 years, over 25 percent are affected by disabling hearing loss.

World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that hearing loss is increasingly becoming the most common sensory deficit in humans, with some 5.3 percent of the population worldwide affected, mainly children.

Early identification, referral and management of impairments in children has been emphasized by the National Policy of Persons with Disabilities and its four years’ strategic plan (2021-2024) especially the strategic objective related to the strengthening of early identification, diagnostic assessment, and intervention, prioritizing children with disabilities.[1] In response to this, different interventions are being carried out within the health sector. However, lack of evidence on disability determinants and factors contributing to the impairment in children constitute a hindrance to the good performance of the above mentioned interventions.


To overcome this, the Government of Rwanda has prioritized and included strategies for inclusive health within the health sector and is supporting some of the initiatives introduced by different partners. This includes priorities reflected in the 2018-2024 National Ear and Hearing Care Plan (NEHCP) which will constitute a baseline of interventions. The NEHCP aims at finding lasting solutions to existing challenges for ear and hearing care in Rwanda. It provides orientation on how to address identified ear and hearing care challenges that include infrastructure, equipment, staff, prevention, care, and rehabilitation (service delivery). It also proposes approaches for enhanced stakeholder coordination in terms of implementation and resource mobilization. The NEHCP priorities include the following:

  • Preventing all avoidable causes of hearing loss and deafness, disease, and injury (trauma, noise pollution).
  • Scaling up, strengthening, decentralizing, and integrating ear and hearing care services across the Rwanda healthcare system.
  • Ensuring universal coverage of rehabilitation services and packages for all persons suffering from hearing loss and deafness.
  • Raising public awareness on causes and issues of ear and hearing care and outlining interventions and actions to be undertaken by various stakeholders, including public institutions and agencies, development partners, and non-government organizations.


Since 2021, UNICEF successfully supported MoH/RBC to ensure early identification, referral and management of reversible impairments in children through the capacity strengthening of health care providers from all public hospitals of Rwanda and development of national clinical guidelines on the management of reversible impairments and deformities in children including strengthening the referral pathways, Rwanda Integrated Rehabilitation Model. To the same end, a program on ear and hearing care including pre-screening, screening, and assessment of children with hearing impairment and distribution of hearing aids, has been piloted in four districts namely Nyagatare, Nyarugenge, Huye, and Nyabihu. During this period, 691 children were assessed by ENT specialists, 115 children were found with treatable hearing issues including ear infections and perforations and 295 children were subsequently fitted with hearing aids. RBC and its partners plan to scaling up the ear and hearing care in 8 districts through Winsiga Ndumva program including Nyagatare, Huye, Nyarugenge, Nyabihu, Muhanga, Rusizi, Rwamagana, and Musanze.

The program will run for three years (2023-2024; 2024-2025; and 2025-2026) to allow maximum time for strengthening the implementation of ear and hearing care services in the four pilot districts, as well as for the establishment and scale up in four new districts. This will include training of staff, provision of assistive technologies/equipment, monitoring and evaluation of program activities, social and behaviour change (SBC), training of school teachers on ear and hearing conditions, disability-inclusive education and documentation of best practices.

It is within the above mentioned background that UPHLS in partnership RBC seeks to recruit a highly qualified, dedicated and experienced personnel to serve as Program Technical Assistant for WINSIGA NDUMVA Program 


The objective of this assignment is as follows:

The Program Technical Assistant will work 100% ensuring technical quality in all areas of Ear and Hearing health work in Rwanda. The successful candidate will provide expertise to the staff and implementing partners to ensure that the work is carried out in the most professional, efficient and results-based manner.

The purpose of this program is to scale up ear and hearing care in Rwanda putting more emphasis on specific UNICEF-Supported 8 districts of Rwanda. This will include a review and update of health policies/strategies with components of ear and hearing care, capacity building of health providers and health institutions, and strengthening institutionalization of existing government efforts among children 0 to 18 years of age, with a focus on primary healthcare settings in catchment districts according to Rwanda 2018-2024 NEHCP.
