Background |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
A.Background The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is the UN’s global development network, advocating for change and connecting countries to knowledge, experience, and resources to help people build a better life. We are on the ground in 170 countries and territories, working with governments and people on their own solutions to global and national development challenges to help empower lives and build resilient nations. UNDP has an important role in supporting health outcomes by supporting countries to address the social, cultural, and economic determinants of HIV and health, in partnership with UN entities and other organizations. This is done through UNDP’s core work in reducing inequalities and social exclusion that drive HIV and poor health, promoting effective and inclusive governance for health, and building resilient and sustainable systems for health. UNDP also contributes through its coordinating and convening role in bringing together multiple partners and resources at national and local levels. As a trusted, long-term partner with extensive operational experience, UNDP supports countries in effective implementation of complex, multilateral and multi-sectoral health programmes while simultaneously investing in capacity development so that national and local partners can assume these responsibilities over time. UNDP partners with countries in crisis/post-crisis situations, those with weak institutional capacity or governance challenges, and countries under sanctions. When requested, UNDP acts as interim Principal Recipient (PR) in these settings, working with national partners and The Global Fund (GF) to improve management, implementation, and oversight, while simultaneously developing national capacity for governments or local entities to be able to assume the PR role over time.

Duties and Responsibilities |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
UNDP as interim PR in the Republic of Vanuatu UNDP is the interim PR for the Republic of Vanuatu for the GF malaria grant, from 01 January 2021 to 31 December 2023. The goal of the program is: A malaria free Vanuatu, contributing to the good health and well-being of the population. The objectives include:
To develop Funding Request (FR) for the new Malaria grant cycle, 2024-2027, it is paramount to conduct Malaria Programme Review (MPR). It will be an evidence-based appraisal of the Malaria situation, programme performance, current strategies, funding landscape, lessons learnt and best practices, challenges, and identification of recommendations to further strengthen malaria control and elimination efforts as articulated in the National Strategic Plan for Malaria Elimination (2021-2026). A.Consultancy Overview and Objective Vanuatu Malaria Programme will conduct a review of the country’s malaria control and elimination program guided by the WHO 2019 Practical Manual for Malaria Programme Review (MPR) and Malaria Strategic Plan Mid-Term Review (MTR). The MPR will include four phases namely:
The thematic areas to be reviewed under phase 2 will include programme management, integrated vector management, malaria case management and diagnostics, surveillance, monitoring, evaluation and operations research, epidemic preparedness and response, social mobilization, and behavioral change. The purpose of the review is to identify major achievements, best practices and lessons learnt, critical issues, priority problems, and investigate the causes of the problems and propose solutions. The review will be implemented in phases, one of which is an in-country desk top review and consultations. The desktop review will involve interviews with key MOH and malaria program staff and stakeholders; some limited field visits and observations; and feedback recommendations to guide the next phase of the MPR, which is the in-country visit by the review team. The desktop review will use the below eight thematic areas to help focus and frame the review process:
The desktop review will include a systematic review of the thematic areas based on program data, reports, documents, and published literature, updating of country data base, country profiles, risk populations and risk maps, burden estimates and projections, policy and management analysis, summarizing data from special studies and malaria indicator surveys, group work and individual consultations and district field visits with interviews and observations. The consultants (international as lead and local as support) will serve as a team facilitate organization of briefing and debriefing sessions, and draft and present a report at the conclusion of the mission. The findings and recommendations that will be contained in the MPR report will inform potential revisions to the National Strategic Plan for Malaria Elimination 2021-2026, especially the targets and timelines for elimination and WHO certification of zero malaria.
