The Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo has declared an outbreak of Ebola Virus Disease affecting Ituri and other affected or at-risk provinces. National authorities, with the support of humanitarian partners, have activated emergency coordination and response mechanisms to contain transmission and protect affected communities.
The outbreak is unfolding in a complex humanitarian environment marked by insecurity, population displacement, high mobility, constrained access to essential services and weak water, sanitation, hygiene and infection prevention and control systems. These conditions heighten the risk of transmission in health facilities and communities and require rapid, well-coordinated and technically rigorous WASH/IPC action.
The geographic expansion of the outbreak, the operational complexity of the response and the need to align interventions across national, provincial and health-zone levels require senior leadership. An experienced profile is therefore required to provide the strategic expertise, technical authority and convening capacity needed to lead UNICEF's WASH/IPC response and support Government-led coordination across affected and at-risk areas.
The purpose of this Terms of Reference (ToR) is to establish LTASs with multiple rostered individual consultants that give UNICEF reliable access to specialised support in MHPSS. Consultants engaged through this mechanism will help UNICEF to further improve the efficient and rapid deployment of high-quality MHPSS professionals with experience in the area of mental health and psychosocial support. The arrangement ensures that CoE, RO and CO teams can draw on consistent expertise for high-quality system strengthening, MHPSS in emergencies and strategic global policy advocacy, and technical support as required.
