Job Description:
Background: Polio eradication is a corporate priority for UNICEF globally. Afghanistan is one of the two remaining countries where polio is still endemic. UNICEF commits to continue the work on polio eradication until the goal is reached.
With the declaration of polio as a public health emergency, Afghanistan is intensifying its efforts to ensure polio is stopped for good. As a key partner in the effort to eradicate polio, UNICEF has the lead role in communicating to families and communities about the importance of polio vaccinations. UNICEF has recently scaled up its human resource capacity at all levels, including the deployment of social mobilizers at the community level to expand household and community engagement. In addition, Communication Extenders have also been locally recruited in the regions to support communication and advocacy activities in raising polio awareness and other eradication efforts in areas where UNICEF staff cannot reach due to security reasons. There is continuous emphasis on the need to ensure evidence-based decision making for communication at all levels.
UNICEF’s work on communication, social mobilization and cold chain management for polio eradication entails collection, collation, and analysis of data on uptake and refusal of vaccines among children; this requires review of a range of monitoring data from the field. The information from this data will be used to guide programme planning and implementation at the regional, provincial and district level. It is necessary that regional (zonal) Polio teams have the capacity to manage information/ maintain database and analyses data/ information and provide critical information to track issues and progress of interventions in the respective regions.
Given the above programmatic needs, additional capacity is anticipated to support the UNICEF Polio team in terms of data collection, data analysis, use of data at the field level.
The M&E extender under the direct supervision of the M&E specialist/officer will be responsible to accomplish the following tasks.
Job Requirements:
- Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field (e.g., statistics, computer science, public health, development studies).
- At least 3 years of experience in M&E, data collection, and analysis in the health sector and immunization
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Experience with data visualization tools (e.g., Power BI, excel).
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Ability to work effectively in a team and with partners.
- Able to travel to all the provinces of Afghanistan specially within the north/northeast regio whenever required
Note: Priority will be given to female candidates
