CONTEXT

The aim of the Medical Department is to improve the quality of MSF interventions in the field. This is done through 3 main activities: direct support to the field (field visits, technical advices etc.), training of MSF medical staff according to defined policies and protocols and support to operational research.

Resistance to acute bacterial infections is a rapidly growing problem. WHO and public health leaders now consider antibiotic resistance (ABR) as one of the main matters of concern for global public health.

MSF is increasingly confronted with ABR in many of our projects, while realizing that we are only aware of a fraction of the extent of the issue. Our microbial laboratory and diagnostic capacity in the field is still very limited and in most projects, the attention to ABR and what it entails is still fairly narrow. In response to this and in order to coordinate MSF’s common commitment to this dossier, a specific task-force on ABR was created. This task-force developed in 2017 a detailed roadmap to improve the capacity to prevent, detect and manage ABR in the MSF projects and will guide the implementation of the plan over a period of 4 years. Three main topics were identified as priorities in the roadmap:

(1) Antibiotic stewardship and rational antibiotic prescription,

(2) Diagnostic tools and ABR surveillance,

(3) IPC (Infection/ Prevention/Control).

 OCB is looking for a Microbiology referent to be part of the microbiology subgroup of intersectional taskforce and the OCB internal working group, primarily to engage in the second pillar of the roadmap.

 The objective is to further improve MSF’s capacity to provide quality medical care by effectively diagnosing and treating bacterial infections, including addressing drug resistant bacterial infections.

The focus for microbiology will be on the identification for new diagnostic tools for bacterial infection and antimicrobial sensitivity testing, the implementation of diagnostic capacities and antimicrobial surveillance system on the field.

 The microbiologist referent is based together with the Infectious Disease/Antibiotic Resistance (ABR) referent, the health promotion referent and an epidemiologist in the MSF Lebanon branch office in Beirut. By regular contact through skype, videoconference, and visits to Brussels, he/she stays connected and works together with the referents in the medical department and the operational cells.

Outraged by the injustice faced by people with disabilities and vulnerable populations, we aspire to a world of solidarity and inclusion, enriched by our differences, where everyone can live in dignity.

Handicap International is changing his name and becomes « Humanity & Inclusion ». HI, Humanity & Inclusion is an independent and impartial aid and development organisation with no religious or political affiliations operating in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflict and disaster. We work alongside people with disabilities and vulnerable people to help meet their essential needs, improve their living conditions and promote respect for their dignity and fundamental rights.

 

HI has offices in more than 55 countries; for further information about the association: www.hi.org.

 

JOB CONTEXT :

HI’s Middle East Regional Programme (MEReP) includes missions in 4 countries (Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Palestine) for now. The programme is engaged in the second part of its StratOp 2015–2019 with a massive growing of financial volumes on the last 2 years. The program is covering the full mandate of HI – emergency, mine action and development with a strong focus on continuum and resilience. The program has a total volume expected for 2019 of 11M Euros with 220 expatriates and national staff.

The regional office of MEReP is composed of a range of coordinators (Technical, Operations, Finance, Logistics, HR) under the management of a Regional Program Director.

Under the leadership of Regional Technical Unit Coordinator (RTUC), the Regional Technical Unit (RTU) is responsible for supporting the missions for the development and implementation of quality interventions in all HI technical fields.

 

Humanity and Inclusion has been interruptedly present in Lebanon since 1997, working alongside persons with disabilities (PWDs), persons with Mental Health problems and Disabled Persons’ Organizations (DPOs) and a diverse array of governmental and non-governmental stakeholders to improve recognition and realization of the rights of this collective.

Following the closure of the borders and the now protracted nature of the crisis, HI decided to focus its direct activities only on responding to the specific needs of persons with physical and functional impairments by providing emergency physiotherapy services, including the distribution of mobility and assistive devices, complementary basic items and prosthesis and orthotics, caregivers’ education, accompanied referral and psychosocial support. Aside from its direct provision of specific services through outreach teams and HI permanent centres, HI has also implemented awareness-raising and capacity building activities aimed at increasing inclusion of persons with disabilities in the overall humanitarian response, as well as at challenging widespread stereotypes still severely affecting social participation and equal access to services. Moreover, HI has also provided technical and material support to local civil society organizations and health service providers, working in rehabilitation, psychosocial support and civic inclusion.

In order to adapt its response to the changing nature of the crisis and responding to the general strategic orientations outlined in the Lebanon Crisis Response Plan and its own internal analysis, HI will focus on furthering its partnerships with national and international organizations in order to promote longer term impact and sustainability of the support it provides to persons with physical and functional limitations.

According to HI 5 years’ strategy, it is planned to develop also new projects or technical service provisions on “inclusion” in protection livelihood and education sectors, as well as technical trainings to humanitarian actors.

 

YOUR MISSION:

As Technical Advisor (TA), you will provide humanitarian actors to systematically mainstream disability within their programming and MEAL with an approach that can be summarised in different types of activities related to organizational change for better disability responsiveness.

Remaining time will be dedicated to supporting actions in the same field in other MEReP’s countries, upon request of the RTUC, in coordination with the Mission.
