As part of this evidence generation, UNICEF is undertaking a rapid telephone-based household survey to examine household socioeconomic conditions, exposure to recent shocks, coping responses, social protection, access to essential services and child wellbeing, including household-level impacts associated with the Middle East crisis.

This consultancy will support two connected areas of UNICEF's evidence and policy work. First, it will use relevant findings from the rapid telephone-based household survey, together with complementary evidence generated with UN partners,
to contribute to a focused live case study on shock-responsive social protection, using Aswesuma as the principal entry
point. Second, it will support the household vulnerability and social protection component of a broader collaborativeanal Es. This second analytical stream will be explicitly built on the upstream enterprise and value-chain analysis undertaken by the collaborating UN partner(s). Based on the priority

Consultant to support Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative in Republic of Marshall Islands,Majuro, RMI,12 months, Internationals Only#596494
|
Fiji/Pacific Island Countries
|
|
| The purpose of the consultancy is to provide technical support to the Ministry of Health and Human Services (MoHHS) in Republic of Marshall Islands (RMI), to strengthen breastfeeding promotion through improving implementation of the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative in two main hospitals and their surrounding communities. Background Promotion of breastfeeding is a high impact intervention that plays a crucial role in ensuring children receive adequate nourishment. Breastfed children have a significantly reduced risk for both wasting and later childhood overweight or obesity. In RMI, one in every three children under five years of age are stunted. Nearly 5% of children in the same age group are overweight and another 4% are wasted. Sub-optimal infant feeding, including limited breastfeeding, is considered to be a critical driver of malnutrition in this context. In 1991, UNICEF and WHO jointly launched the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative (BHFI), which consolidated evidence on promoting breastfeeding within health facilities. The BFHI included “Ten Steps to Successful Breastfeeding”, which were subsequently updated in guidelines published in 2018. These guidelines titled, “Protecting, promoting and supporting breastfeeding” are intended for use in health facilities providing maternity and newborn services to promote breastfeeding. As outlined in UNICEF Pacific Multi-Country Program Document (MCPD) for 2023- 2027, UNICEF is committed to supporting the RMI and other Pacific island countries in strengthening capacities for improved, affordable, and equitable quality primary health care and nutrition services, including during emergencies. Within this framework, UNICEF works with MoHs and other partners to ensure that the health care systems are conducive to protect, promote and support breastfeeding practices The BFHI was previously implemented in the major hospital (Majuro) in RMI. |
