11. STATEMENT OF DUTIES
A. BACKGROUND
More than a decade since the conclusion of ten years of civil war and five years of civil conflict, Burundi remains one of the least developed countries in the world, with alarming levels of hunger and malnutrition that have been exacerbated by political crisis. USAID Burundi engages with international donors and local stakeholders to improve the health status and social conditions of the population, reduce the high rates of chronic malnutrition, mitigate the drivers of conflict, enhance democratic governance and human rights, and promote economic growth.
In May 2006, the Government of Burundi announced that free health services would be provided to children under five and pregnant women. Since the policy was implemented, the percentage of women delivering in health facilities has increased from 61% to 74%, with 99% of women presenting for at least one antenatal care (ANC) visit during the course of their pregnancies. ANC remains the key point of entry for counseling and testing pregnant women and their families for HIV and providing prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) and antiretroviral treatment (ART) services. It is also the primary point of entry for malaria prevention services including long-lasting insecticide-treated net distribution and intermittent preventive treatment of malaria in pregnancy (IPTP).
Burundi’s National Reproductive Health Policy now includes newborn care as a critical strategy in reducing child mortality. A central feature of this policy included scaling up services to prevent mother-to-child transmission of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).
Despite this progress, the overall picture of health in Burundi remains one of concern.
This situation is associated mainly with the fragility of the health system, the heavy burden of communicable diseases, the vulnerability of mothers, children, and adolescents, and the role of the determinants of health (including very high rates of acute and chronic malnutrition, 6% and 56% respectively, in children between 0-5). The most prevalent diseases in the epidemiological profile are communicable diseases that particularly affect the health of pregnant women and children, including malaria, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, diarrheal diseases, vaccine-preventable diseases, and acute respiratory infections.
B. BASIC FUNCTION OF THE POSITION
The Reproductive, Maternal and Child Health (RMCH) Advisor shall advise USAID Burundi on the full range of MCH and Family Planning (FP) activities, including advising on strategic planning and oversight of activities to improve maternal, child and reproductive health (RH) outcomes across the USAID Burundi portfolio.
The incumbent shall contribute to the team’s ability to achieve results by providing programmatic and technical expertise for the MCH and RH components of the USAID Burundi program. This position is cross-cutting and will serve as a subject matter expert on MCH and RH issues across several funding streams and programs, including the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), and the President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI), and will serve as the principal point of contact for MCH and FP/RH funding and activities. The RMCH Advisor will serve as an expert and provide inputs and oversight on programming including prevention of transmission of HIV between mothers and their infants, pediatric HIV programs, orphans and vulnerable children (OVC), gender-based violence (GBV) prevention and response, intermittent treatment of malaria in pregnancy, family planning, and the health of pregnant mothers and children under five. The RMCH Advisor is also a lead on supply chain management as it relates to FP commodities, and in general to the strengthening of the supply chain system in Burundi.
The RMCH Advisor interacts with the USAID Health Office team as well as technical representatives of other U.S. government (USG) agencies, Government of Burundi counterparts, international donors and other key development partners. He/she may serve as a Contracting/Agreement Officer’s Representative (COR/AOR) or Activity Manager for USAID Burundi health activities.
