Notice text

Togo was recently added to the list of USG approved PMI (President’s Malaria Initiative) countries.  A PMI Assessment Team visited Togo in 2023 and worked with GOT’s Ministry of Health officials to identify activities to be supported by PMI, based on the country’s national malaria program needs

The Malaria Lead Advisor shall provide specialized, senior-level technical expertise in malaria, as well as leadership, guidance and overall direction on the development and execution of the PMI in collaboration with the PMI CDC Malaria Advisor. The Contractor shall liaise with backstops for the PMI in USAID Washington, CDC counterparts in country and Atlanta, and USAID personnel working within and overseeing the Mission’s activities related to malaria control. These responsibilities include providing expert malaria technical guidance and advice to national malaria control program and district level counterparts, and other malaria control partners, including other United States Government (USG) entities working in malaria prevention and control.  The Malaria Lead Advisor shall exercise extensive independent judgment in planning and carrying out tasks, in representing the USG in critical technical and policy forums, in resolving problems and conflicts, and in taking steps necessary to meet deadlines.  The Malaria Lead Advisor will also represent USAID at functions; approve policy documents; provide technical guidance and/or directly manage contracts and grants; budget; and develop planning documents and work plans

The incumbent must possess specific technical expertise in the area of malaria treatment, prevention and control. The incumbent must also have a deep understanding of the social, economic and cultural determinants and implications of the epidemic in Togo and neighboring countries, as well as have the experience and skills required to help formulate the USG position on malaria and make important policy decisions as a key representative of the USAID in Togo.
