MD EATI

Title: M&E Technical Advisor for the NSHPD

Program:  Human Resource for Health (HRH)

Job Location: Kigali, Rwanda

Type: Full-Time

Start date: November 2022

Overview:

The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in low-and middle-income countries, while strengthening the capabilities of governments and the private sector in those countries to create and sustain high-quality health systems that can succeed without our assistance. For more information, please visit: http://www.clintonhealthaccess.org

CHAI Health Workforce Background:

A skilled health workforce is the backbone of every health system and therefore an essential precondition for progress toward universal health coverage (UHC). However, WHO estimates a projected shortfall of 18 million health workers by 2030, mostly in low- and lower-middle income countries. The chronic under-investment in education and training of health workers in some countries and the mismatch between education and employment strategies in relation to health systems and population needs are contributing to continuous shortages. These are compounded by difficulties in deploying health workers to rural, remote, and underserved areas. CHAI assists governments to develop their health workforce by enhancing their capacity to train highly qualified health workers and by strengthening national systems to finance, deploy, and manage those health workers.

CHAI’s approach to national heath workforce strengthening emphasizes three strategies:

(i) improving the quality and strategically increasing the scale of education for health workers,

(ii) expanding and optimizing health workforce financing, and (iii) providing technical assistance to governments to strengthen their overall health workforce planning and management systems.

Two key principles guide CHAI’s approach to workforce development. The first is focusing on the right kind of health workers—from community health workers to midwives, nurses, health managers, general physicians, and medical specialists—based on national need and service delivery objectives. CHAI’s approach also emphasizes sustainability by building the institutional capacity of the schools and universities where health workers are trained, training new generations of health professions educators, and developing systems and individual capabilities within governments to better plan and manage their own health workforce.

CHAI’s health workforce programs vary by country, as they reflect the major barriers and opportunities to workforce development in that specific context, as well as the priorities of the host government. Currently, CHAI is focused on health workforce programming in Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria, Rwanda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.

Position Summary:

The government of Rwanda has developed the National Strategy for Health Professions Development (NSHPD) 2020-2030, a 10-year plan to strengthen and expand the Rwandan health workforce though improved and expanded pre-service training. The strategy outlines national health workforce targets for 37 cadres of providers, and the necessary inputs to training institutions to scale up enrollment and graduation to meet those targets. The government has created a Human Resources for Health Secretariat (HRHS) to manage implementation of the strategy. The HRH Secretariat works in close collaboration with the College of Medicine and Health Sciences (CHMS) across its five schools at the University of Rwanda (UR), the private universities, the clinical teaching sites, and the professional councils to implement the strategy. The HRH Secretariat has requested CHAI’s support in the implementation of the NSHPD and that in different areas.

CHAI is seeking a highly motivated individual with outstanding technical skills to assist the Deputy Executive Secretary of the HRHS in the implementation of the Monitoring and Evaluation Plan of the NSHPD. The technical advisor should have excellent planning, management, writing, analytical, organizational, communication and cultural sensitivity skills.

Although categorized as a “technical adviser,” this role is not limited to advising and will be responsible for co-producing many of the deliverables related to the implementation of the M&E system, including collecting and analyzing data, and writing reports and developing presentations as needed. Successful candidates must have a passion for results, a commitment to excellence, and a demonstrated capacity to work effectively in high pressure situations and able to adapt to fast paced and changing environments internally and externally.

This position will work in direct support of the Deputy Executive Secretary of the HRHS while formally reporting to the CHAI Rwanda Health Workforce program manager. This position is based at the office of the HRHS in Kigali, Rwanda with some national travels.
