Estudio de situación y mapeo de cuarterías en el distrito de San Jose, Costa Rica, Emergencias, San Jose, Costa Rica/ Remote, 5 meses #595481
|
Costa Rica
|
|
| Los distritos de Merced y Carmen concentran una alta diversidad de dinámicas urbanas caracterizadas por procesos de densificación, informalidad habitacional, movilidad humana, desigualdad socioeconómica y exclusión social. En este contexto, las cuarterías —formas de alojamiento colectivo con condiciones precarias de habitabilidad, hacinamiento e inseguridad— representan una modalidad histórica y persistente de vivienda informal que afecta de manera desproporcionada a poblaciones en situación de vulnerabilidad.
Diversos diagnósticos institucionales y organizaciones sociales han identificado que las cuarterías albergan a personas migrantes, familias monoparentales, personas adultas mayores, trabajadores informales y, de manera significativa, niñas, niños y adolescentes (NNA). Las condiciones estructurales, sanitarias y de seguridad presentes en estos espacios pueden generar riesgos elevados para el ejercicio pleno de derechos fundamentales, incluyendo el derecho a una vivienda adecuada, a la salud, a la educación, a la protección contra la violencia, al desarrollo integral y a un entorno seguro. |

Nutrition Governance (institutional framework) consultant for Tonga, Nuku’alofa, Tonga, 3 Months, Remote (With Travel)#595469
|
Fiji/Pacific Island Countries
|
|
| Surveys conducted in the Pacific Island Countries (PICs) over the past 5 years consistently show alarming rates of various forms of malnutrition among both children in adults. In Tonga, nearly six in every ten children and adolescents (5-19 years) are overweight and obese, while over a third of the children have been reported to be anemic. Sub-optimal diets are considered as the main key immediate driver for malnutrition in all its forms. Poor nutrition is a crucial risk factor for non-communicable diseases (NCDs). In Tonga, NCDs are the leading cause of mortality and take up a significant proportion of the health expenditure. Overall purchases from imported items are the main source of food access followed by small-scale agriculture production. Households in the lowest socio-economic quartile have the lowest food expenditure which is mostly on unhealthy foods as these are less expensive. In order to address the multi-faceted burden of malnutrition in Tonga, as the first pacific country to release a national NCD strategy in 2004, the public health efforts have progressed well, notably with the promotion of physical activities and tobacco cessation/control.
The objective of this consultancy is to recommend: i) an evidence-based, context-specific, and fit-for-purpose institutional set-up / structure within Ministry of Health in Tonga, which will allow optimal delivery of nutrition services through health systems and effective coordination of nutrition interventions across sectors; and ii) nutrition human resource capacity needed in other Ministries / entities to delivery in full, required multi-sectoral interventions for nutrition |
