72066922R00005 - USAID/Liberia solicitation for President Malaria Initiative (PMI) Senior Advisor

USAID/Liberia works closely with the Government of Liberia (GOL) and aligns its health sector assistance with the country’s priorities and goals. The U.S. President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI), implemented by USAID and CDC, is a major component of the U.S. Government’s support to Liberia’s health sector.  With annual funding of $14 million, PMI comprises nearly one quarter of USAID/Liberia’s total health assistance annually.  PMI funds a robust program in the country comprising prevention through routine distribution of long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs), prevention of malaria in pregnancy, behavior change communications, entomological monitoring, case management, pharmaceutical procurement and distribution, and health systems strengthening.  This work is implemented through direct financing to the Ministry of Health to manage and support service-delivery, and non-governmental implementing partners who provide technical assistance and support in key areas including supply chain, monitoring and evaluation, entomology, drug quality testing, and program management.
