The AU Heads of States and Government in Assembly Decision /AU/Dec.570 (XXV) of June 2015, requested the Commission in collaboration with Member States (MS) and Development Partners to establish an African Volunteer Health Corps (AVoHC) to be deployed during disease outbreaks and other health emergencies. A well-trained, multidisciplinary and stand-by response team should be available and able to respond in the shortest time possible. As of October 2021 (latest available figure), more than 230 AVoHC rapid responders have been deployed across 23 countries to support COVID-19 response activities and other disease outbreaks including Ebola Virus Disease, Cholera, Measles and Meningitis from the African Volunteer Health Corps Roster.

Visionary and principled leadership is critical for Africa to implement a new public health order necessary to truly safeguard the African Continent from a myriad of threats to health and economic security. This leadership is even more essential considering the complex interplay of globalization, health security, trade protectionism, and health diplomacy, which overlay the burden of disease and the emergence of new health threats like COVID-19. Furthermore, this leadership is critical to the timely and sustainable achievement of Africa’s Agenda 2063 and the Sustainable Development    Goals    (SDGs).

In view of this urgent need for transformational public health leadership across the continent, the Kofi Annan Global Health Leadership Program (KA-GHLP) was launched on 25 May 2020 by Africa CDC in conjunction with the African Union Commission (AUC) and the Kofi Annan Foundation, as a flagship initiative of Africa CDC. The KA-GHLP has three key components: (1) A Fellowship in Public Health Leadership, (2) a Public Health Scholars Program, and (3) a Public Health    Policy    Forum.

The Kofi Annan Scholars Program (PHSP) aims to place experienced public health experts (from within Africa or the African Diaspora) in time-limited placements within relevant government ministries, National Public Health Institutes, and other significant national health institutions to

provide targeted support. In addition, by attracting African diaspora professionals to participate in this program, it provides an opportunity to tap into additional skill sets while encouraging engagement from the diaspora, which has been officially recognized as the sixth region of the African    Union    since    2012.

The Africa CDC, therefore, seeks to recruit Human Resources Information System (HRIS) Experts from citizens of any Member State of the African Union or the African Diaspora to join the roster of the African Volunteers Health Corps as part of the Kofi Annan Scholars program. This is not recruitment for employment, but volunteer services delivered within the Africa CDC/AU framework that recognizes and rewards the experts for their time and skills under the existing rules, regulations and enumeration guidelines. The overarching principle is to deliver high-quality specific deliverables and build capacity while giving back to Africa.

Main Functions

The HRIS Expert will provide technical leadership to support the design, development, and implementation of robust and interoperable Human Resources Information Systems for national health sectors. The Scholar will work with governments and institutions to enhance health workforce data availability, quality, and use for planning and policy.

Specific Responsibilities

• Conduct rapid assessments of existing HRH information systems and digital infrastructure.
• Lead the design or customization of integrated HRIS platforms aligned with Africa CDC guidance and national priorities.
• Support data architecture development, including system specifications, interoperability features, and geo-mapping tools.
• Facilitate harmonization of HRH data standards across national agencies and partners.
• Provide hands-on technical assistance to ministries of health and NPHIs during HRIS development and deployment.
• Develop data governance frameworks and protocols to ensure secure, ethical use of workforce data.
• Build capacity of national stakeholders through training workshops, user guides, and coaching.
• Advise on sustainability strategies including system maintenance, institutional ownership, and integration with broader HIS platforms.
• Monitor and evaluate system performance and user feedback to guide enhancements.
  
  
  

Academic Requirements and Relevant Experience

• Master’s or Doctoral degree in Health Informatics, Computer Science, Public Health, Information Systems, Data Science, or related field.
• At least 7 years of experience in HRIS design, implementation, and digital health solutions.
• Experience working in health system strengthening or workforce data systems in LMICs is an asset

• Deep understanding of health information systems architecture and standards (e.g. DHIS2, iHRIS, OpenHIE).
• Experience with system interoperability, data security, and user interface design.

Functional Skills

• Ability to lead complex digital system development and roll-out.
• Strong data management and visualization skills.
• Capacity to generate technical documentation and operational manuals.
• Expertise in stakeholder coordination and technical facilitation.

Personal Abilities

• High adaptability and ability to troubleshoot in challenging environments.
• Strong emotional intelligence and resilience in high-pressure contexts.
• Excellent interpersonal and cross-cultural communication skills.
• Self-driven and collaborative mindse

Language Requirement:

• Proficiency in at least one AU working language (English, French, Arabic, Portuguese, Spanish, Swahili).

Purpose of Job

The AU Heads of States and Government in Assembly Decision /AU/Dec.570 (XXV) of June 2015, requested the Commission in collaboration with Member States (MS) and Development Partners to establish an African Volunteer Health Corps (AVoHC) to be deployed during disease outbreaks and other health emergencies. A well-trained, multidisciplinary and stand-by response team should be available and able to respond in the shortest time possible. As of October 2021 (latest available figure), more than 230 AVoHC rapid responders have been deployed across 23 countries to support COVID-19 response activities and other disease outbreaks including Ebola Virus Disease, Cholera, Measles and Meningitis from the African Volunteer Health Corps Roster.

Visionary and principled leadership is critical for Africa to implement a new public health order necessary to truly safeguard the African Continent from a myriad of threats to health and economic security. This leadership is even more essential considering the complex interplay of globalization, health security, trade protectionism, and health diplomacy, which overlay the burden of disease and the emergence of new health threats like COVID-19. Furthermore, this leadership is critical to the timely and sustainable achievement of Africa’s Agenda 2063 and the Sustainable Development    Goals    (SDGs).

In view of this urgent need for transformational public health leadership across the continent, the Kofi Annan Global Health Leadership Program (KA-GHLP) was launched on 25 May 2020 by Africa CDC in conjunction with the African Union Commission (AUC) and the Kofi Annan Foundation, as a flagship initiative of Africa CDC. The KA-GHLP has three key components: (1) A Fellowship in Public Health Leadership, (2) a Public Health Scholars Program, and (3) a Public Health    Policy    Forum.

The Kofi Annan Scholars Program (PHSP) aims to place experienced public health experts (from within Africa or the African Diaspora) in time-limited placements within relevant government ministries, National Public Health Institutes, and other significant national health institutions to provide targeted support. In addition, by attracting African diaspora professionals to participate in this program, it provides an opportunity to tap into additional skill sets while encouraging engagement from the diaspora, which has been officially recognized as the sixth region of the African Union since 2012.

The Africa CDC, therefore, seeks to recruit Procurement Specialists from citizens of any Member State of the African Union or the African Diaspora to join the roster of the African Volunteers Health Corps as part of the Kofi Annan Scholars program. This is not recruitment for employment but volunteer services delivered within the Africa CDC/AU framework that recognizes and rewards the experts for their time and skills under the existing rules, regulations and enumeration guidelines. The overarching principle is to deliver high-quality specific deliverables and build capacity while giving back to Africa.
