The Mpanga river basin in the Rwenzori region is a predominantly rural zone with a very high population density. In this zone, the farmers are confronted with a rapid degradation of their environment, which is reflected at their level by a deterioration of living conditions, a loss of productivity of their farms, and increased malnutrition among children. The Ministry of the Environment promotes a transition towards sustainable agriculture which is economically profitable and compatible with the management of natural resources. In this context, the NGOs Iles de Paix and SOS Faim combine their efforts to improve farmers and other social economic actors’ living conditions, in particular young people and women through strategies that support the food systems’ agroecological transition carried out by the same farmers and social economic actors with the support of citizens and the involvement of local and national authorities. The systemic approach adopted in the ToC of the “Feed Good” program allows to take into account the contexts in which the target groups evolve so that they can actively participate in the sustainable construction of their food system. 

The Junior Expert will give extra support in the implementation of the monitoring and evaluation system of Iles de Paix in Uganda (and SOS Faim, its consortium partner). He/she will support the partners in setting up the mechanisms for collecting relevant information and processing this data. He:SHE will also help the teams to draw lessons learned. On this basis, the junior expert may be called upon to draft capitalisation documents aimed at sharing the lessons learned. This will include the coordination of interactions with the local partners (local NGAs) and other relevant stakeholder (local Authorities and groups).  

Through the support of the JE, the program management will be capable of feeling the true progress of the program and its impact (versus the desired projections). 

In addition, the junior expert will facilitate all monitoring and evaluation activities of the Feed Good program as well as the development of collaborations and synergies between all program partners.

1. Introduction

1. 1. About Humanity & Inclusion

Humanity and Inclusion – HI (formerly Handicap International) is an international non-governmental Organization founded in 1982 and currently located in more than 60 countries worldwide. HI is an independent and impartial aid organisation working in situations of poverty and exclusion, conflict and disaster. The organisation works alongside people with disabilities and vulnerable populations, taking action and bearing witness in order to respond to their essential needs, improve their living conditions and promote respect for their dignity and fundamental rights.

1. 2. About the WISH Project

The Women’s Integrated Sexual Health (WISH2ACTION or WISH) Consortium brings together six internationally recognised leading organizations in their field to deliver Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) services across 16 countries. WISH2ACTION’s operational model – the WISH Cluster Model – is a comprehensive, integrated approach to delivering the four WISH outputs in order to ensure equitable access to family planning and SRHR, prioritizing the most underserved women and girls, particularly youth under the age of 20, the poorest and most marginalized populations (including people with disabilities, people displaced or affected by humanitarian crisis, and people living in hard-to-reach areas).

Under the WISH2ACTION Project, HI is implementing activities in three countries (Uganda, South Sudan and Madagascar) and is providing remote technical assistance to four additional countries (Tanzania, Ethiopia, Somalia and Sudan). The mandate of HI is to support partners in rendering SRHR services more inclusive for all and in particular for all groups of persons with disabilities. HI’s role under the project is also to provide general technical assistance to all consortium partner in all countries of the WISH2ACTION project through a series of global webinars conducted by HI and by providing global technical goods such as technical documents, guidelines, social behaviour change communication (SBCC) materials and tools, etc.  that promotes disability inclusion.

2.2. Background and Justification of the Assignment

Persons with disabilities have the same rights to the highest attainable standard of healthcare and SRH and in making their own choices about sexuality and sexual health.

This right to healthcare is enshrined in international laws through human rights treaties, and in domestic legal frameworks including national constitutions. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), the international human rights treaty on disability, adopted or ratified by 184 countries since 2006, affirms that “States Parties recognize that persons with disabilities have the right to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health without discrimination on the basis of disability”.

But in reality all groups of persons with disabilities and in particular persons with mental and intellectual disabilities are often excluded from SRHR information and services. Discrimination, stigma and misconceptions about disabilities and in particular about mental and intellectual disabilities and restrictive gender and social norms prevent persons with disabilities to enjoy their rights and to get access to information and services.

Community activities and social and behaviour change communication (SBCC) programmes in the field of SRHR do not include persons with disabilities and service providers lack capacity to address their needs when proving services to persons with disabilities. 

Information, education and communication (IEC) materials often do not consider persons with disabilities and often persons with disabilities do not feel addressed, cannot understand or misunderstand the messages of the provided SRHR information.  This results in other persons such as family members or services providers taking decision on behalf of the persons with disabilities, and this often deprives persons with disabilities from their human rights and can lead to harm (e.g.  Persons with disabilities are less likely to use short-term contraceptives and more likely to be sterilized - rendering them unable to bear children [1]).

Research shows that “Women with intellectual disabilities face important barriers to care, including lack of provider training and experience, hesitancy to broach the topic of sexual health, a lack of sexual knowledge and limited opportunities for sex education, disability-related barriers, higher prevalence of sexual abuse and assault, often underreported, lack of dialogue around this population’s human right to consensual sexual expression, under treatment of menstrual disorders, and legal and systemic barriers”[2].

The WISH SRHR project is implemented on several levels and focuses on different approaches:

1. Community level: focusing on social behaviour change and demand creation towards SRHR of all persons and in particular women and youth with and without disabilities, people from extremely poor economic backgrounds and marginalized groups including refugees and persons displaced. The WISH partners use mass media and produce educational materials to raise awareness about SRH Rights and access to services in communities / intervention locations. All of these activities should consider and include persons with disabilities who face various barriers in communication and infrastructure, which affects their ability to access services. Therefore, all interventions and all materials produced have to be done in accessible formats and in cooperation with organizations of persons with disabilities (OPDs).

 

2. Service level:  The different international, local and public SRHR service provider partners of the WISH project are providing services in health facilities, through outreach and mobile clinics, during home visits and through telecommunication. HI supports partners to provide disability-inclusive services by building their capacity and providing technical support in this domain. Service providers use different IEC materials to counsel persons in SRHR and in particular in family planning and gender-based violence.  Persons with disabilities are often not considered during production of materials and accessibility criteria of the materials in particular for persons with intellectual disabilities, including easy to understand language, clear and concise information, easy to understand pictorials, etc. are often neglected and do not address their needs.

 

3. National level:  The WISH project aims to create national ownership of inclusive SRHR. All consortium partners and in particular Options and HI support governments and national SRHR actors to ensure SRHR for all. HI in cooperation with national and local OPD partners provides technical advice and promotes OPD cooperation in the production of public health messages and materials where possible. Many health actors have understood that braille and sign language are relevant formats when it comes to public health education, but often the group of persons with intellectual disabilities and their accessible communication needs, such as the use of images to support communication, are not considered in public risk and health communication.
