The Mpox outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) represents a major public health emergency, with increasing spread across multiple provinces.
The response to this epidemic, according to the DRC's national response plan, is structured around several pillars, including vaccination, which faces multiple challenges, particularly due to the introduction of a new vaccine and a vaccination strategy focused on specific populations.
In response to these challenges, UNICEF DRC is mobilizing an international Immunization Specialist at the P3 level to support the vaccination response to Mpox and other health emergencies, in a context where other epidemics such as measles, polio, and meningitis are also present.
We are looking for an ICT Specialist to manage the overall architecture and operational support of UNICEF global Hybrid Directory Services, including both Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) as well as On-Prem Microsoft Windows Active Directory Domain Services. Amongst other tasks, the ICT Specialist will conduct routine health checks, administer Hybrid Identity systems function, and monitor integrity and performance of the Hybrid System elements. They will also supervise a team of 4 staff members.
Overall purpose of the assignment is to facilitate the reform of the child disability assessment and referral to be in line with the provisions of CRC, CRPD and International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (WHO), moving away from medical assessment to rights-based approach, focusing on assessment of functions and required community-based services for a child and a family as a whole. More specifically, the consultant will provide technical expertise for the reform of child disability assessment and referral to multisector stakeholders in selected Cantons of FBiH and Republika Srpska.
