Technical Advisor, Monitoring & Evaluation, Health Workforce at Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) : Deadline: 05-01-2021

CHAI RWANDA VACANCY ANNOUNCEMENT

Position: Technical Advisor, Monitoring & Evaluation, Health Workforce

Team: CHAI Rwanda

Role: Full Time

Location: Kigali, Rwanda

Start date: January 2021

Level: 6

Overview

Founded in 2002 by President William J. Clinton, the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to strengthening integrated health systems around the world and expanding access to care and treatment for HIV/AIDS, malaria and other illnesses. Based on the premise that business-oriented strategy can facilitate solutions to global health challenges, CHAI acts as a catalyst to mobilize new resources and optimize the impact of these resources to save lives, via improved organization of commodity markets and more effective local management. By working hand-in-hand with governments and other NGO partners, CHAI is focused on large scale impact and, to date, CHAI has helped governments design and implement health systems strengthening programs in over 15 countries and improve access to drugs and commodities in nearly 70 countries.

CHAI Health Workforce Background

A skilled health workforce is the backbone of every health system and therefore an essential pre-condition for progress toward universal health coverage (UHC). However, as warned by the United Nations commission, there is an urgent need of global investment to create new health sector jobs and prevent a projected shortfall of 18 million health workers by 2030. The gap is most acute in Africa (with a shortage of 4.2 million), which bears 24% of the global burden of disease yet has only 4% of the world’s health workforce.

CHAI assists governments to develop their health workforces 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 workforces.

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,  Rwanda, Zambia and Zimbabwe.

Position Overview

The government of Rwanda 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 (HRH Secretariat) to manage implementation of the strategy. The HRH Secretariat has requested CHAI’s support to set up the Secretariat team and functions, and initiate implementation of the NSHPD.

CHAI is currently seeking a highly motivated individual with outstanding technical capabilities to support the HRH Secretariat to establish a robust M&E system for the NSHPD. The M&E Technical Adviser will be responsible for initiating all NSHPD M&E activities, including design and set up of the M&E system, refining the indicator framework, design and implementation of the baseline evaluation, design and implementation of an evaluation of major reforms, design and set up of micro-evaluation fund for Rwandan academic applied research, and supporting training institutions with reporting into the M&E framework for the program at large. They will also facilitate periodic reviews of the program and implement the process evaluation at the end of the grant period; the tools and processes established should also be usable to conduct periodic process evaluations by the HRH Secretariat and MOH throughout the 10-year strategy.

The desired candidate must have excellent planning, management, writing, analytical, organizational, communication and cultural sensitivity skills as they will be working closely with government and external partners. The candidate must have a passion for results and a commitment to excellence. The ideal candidate has a background in monitoring and evaluation systems design and study management, as well as demonstrated experience leading a large and complex work stream. 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 design and implementation of the M&E system, including documenting M&E frameworks and metrics; collecting and analyzing data, and writing reports and developing presentations as needed.

This position will work in direct support of the HRH Secretariat Head of Department in Charge of Teaching Coordination and Quality Assurance and MOH, while formally reporting to the CHAI Rwanda Health Workforce team lead and will coordinate with the CHAI Health Workforce Global Team and other technical teams at CHAI as needed.

This position is based in in Kigali, Rwanda with some national and very limited international travel.

ABOUT WFP

The United Nations World Food Programme is the world’s largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide.  The mission of WFP is to help the world achieve Zero Hunger in our lifetimes.  Every day, WFP works worldwide to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry and that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need.

In Rwanda, WFP works in partnership with the Government and other stakeholders to support national priorities for achieving food and nutrition security. This is done through direct implementation of integrated programmes targeting the most vulnerable people and strengthening national capacity to design, implement and manage programmes for achieving zero hunger. Under its Country Strategic Plan (2019-2023), WFP’s support revolves around four strategic outcomes (SOs) as follows:

Specifically, WFP supports countries to: (a) design and implement social protection programmes that protect access to food and nutrition, improve resilience and reduce reliance on humanitarian response; (b) develop efficient social protection delivery systems.
