Background

 The USAID Ingobyi Activity is a five-year cooperative agreement to improve the quality of reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health (RMNCH) and malaria services, in a sustainable manner with the goal of reducing infant and maternal mortality in Rwanda. The Activity builds upon the tremendous gains Rwanda has made as well as previous USAID investments in the health sector. Ingobyi partners with the GOR to build on the country’s considerable achievements, guided by national health strategies, goals, objectives and data. The Activity is not just building capacity and capability but aims to achieve shared understanding of the patterns and systemic structures that underlie the health system and where and how to bring about measurable and sustainable improvements. These efforts are expected to generate a virtuous cycle that produces a stronger health system through increased access, skills, standards and institutions.

One of the ways to understand patterns and factors that underlie health system structures is through analyzing implementation data and deriving evidence based actions for performance and quality improvement. Continuous learning and adaptation (also known as learning agenda) is a major focus for the Ingobyi Activity as it strives to improve the utilization and quality of RMNCH and malaria services in Rwanda, in a sustainable manner. The learning agenda is an approach that integrates operational research into program implementation, and helps to monitor efficiency and effectiveness of interventions being implemented, through analysis/interpretation and use of data gathered from routine program implementation.

To generate evidence and actions for the improvement of quality of RMNCH and malaria services, while contributing to  capacity building for health professionals in operational research using routine program data, USAID Ingobyi Activity, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health/HRH Secretariat and RBC/MCCH, plan to provide small research grants of up to $5,000 to support targeted studies by selected post-graduate students from medical or public health institutions in Rwanda. The successful students must be interested and willing to undertake their research activities (as part of their final academic requirements) in the following areas: infection prevention and control, antenatal care, family planning, social behavioral change, clinical mentorship, and respectful maternity care. Interested students will be expected to apply for the grants by submitting a motivation letter indicating the area of interest as well as a detailed proposal to conduct the research in a hospital or health center setting. A screening process will be conducted by the MOH/HRH Secretariat, RBC/MCCH and Ingobyi Activity. Successful candidates will receive orientation on implementation and management of the research grant, and will be responsible taking the research activity to completion.

• Must provide recommendation letter from research supervisor.

Number of grants: Six (6) – one student for each of the identified research areas (infection prevention and control, antenatal care, family planning, social behavioral change, clinical mentorship, and respectful maternity care).
