Overview of position
Treatment of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) is one of the key components of PND activities serviced through BPHS NGOS. It is primarily implemented in the emergency affected provinces where the prevalence of SAM is high. The services will be expanded as part of emergency response once there is emergency induced SAM cases. Therapeutic nutrition supplies (e.g F-75, F-100 and RUTF) are core elements of the services. PND manage the overall supply chain including forecasting, requesting, distributing, and collecting the reports on a quarterly basis.
Purpose of the post:
The main objective of this assignment is to support PND to manage quality IMAM services delivery as inpatient care and outpatient care. Also, to manage the therapeutic supply and minimize the nutrition supply stock outs through improved nutrition supply management system. The technical assistance will also be responsible for emergency related activities in PND including coordinating with Nutrition cluster.
Access to drinking water, sanitation and hygiene is among the fundamental and basic human rights. Unfortunately, Afghans still have a long way to go and get access to this right. As per the latest report of MICS 2022/2023, access to at least basic sanitation is still as low as 44.5% with huge disparities between rural and urban, 66.7% and 36.9% respectively. 19.8% people defecate in open (1% urban, 26.2% rural). Basic hygiene stands at 58.3% with disparities of urban and rural again (67.7% in urban and 55.1% in rural). Under 5 child mortality still stands at 55/1,000 live births. In order to get to the SDG target for sanitation and hygiene, which is “access to adequate and equitable sanitation and hygiene for all, and end open defecation, paying special attention to the needs of women and girls and those in vulnerable situation” and decrease the under 5 child mortality, we need upstream work (policy/strategies development, enabling environment…) and also implementation of services at various levels (communities and institutions). UNICEF has been providing support to the WASH sector to attain the SDGs for WASH by provision of WASH services, coordination, policy/strategy development and implementation of the WASH projects. UNICEF as one of the main technical and financial supporter for the WASH sector has remained the core supporter for MRRD, MoPH and MoE and has been backing up the technical units in the country and continuing its assistance under various circumstances. The extenders who have been supported by UNICEF, have gained several years of experience in coordinating and implementing different approaches in rural Afghanistan. Community Led Total Sanitation (CLTS); a tested approach in the country, has been scaled up with UNICEF support and is being implemented in different provinces successfully. UNICEF has also been supporting the HCHP to trigger the health staff to wash their hands at the critical times to avoid transmission of pathogens between patients and raise demand for WASH facilities. Provincial teams with support from Kabul based extenders (based at the technical departments of the de facto ministries) have been implementing the projects to contribute in overall WASH goal and attain the SDG # 6.2.
