**Contractual Arrangement**: External consultant

**Contract Duration (Years, Months, Days)**: 6 months

**Job Posting**: Dec 9, 2024, 12:35:53 AM

**Closing Date**: Dec 16, 2024, 4:59:00 PM

**Primary Location**: Egypt-Cairo

**Organization**: EM/NMH Non Communicable Diseases and Mental Health

**Schedule**: Full-time

**1.** **Purpose of the Consultancy**

To contribute to the implementation of the regional framework for action (RFA) to implement the United Nations Political Declaration on NCDs, with a focus on supporting countries developing and operationalizing NCD multisectoral action plans/strategies (MSAP), supporting the implementation of the Global Initiative for Childhood Cancer as well as the WHO Framework for Meaningful Engagement of People living with NCDs.

**2.** **Background**

The Eastern Mediterranean Region has a complex healthcare landscape marked by the dual challenge of communicable and non-communicable diseases. The juxtaposition of these health challenges, including a high prevalence of cancer, creates a multi-faceted problem for healthcare systems:
1. Several countries in the region suffer from political unrest, which disrupts health service delivery, particularly in the specialized care required for cancer treatment.

2. Many countries in this region are categorized as low-income or middle-income and have limited healthcare infrastructure suitable for cancer care, including diagnostics, treatment, and palliative services.

3. Cultural stigmas often attach to cancer, leading to late diagnosis and less effective treatment outcomes, compounded by societal misunderstandings about the disease.

4. The COVID-19 pandemic has put additional stress on already strained healthcare systems, making cancer care more challenging and widening existing disparities in healthcare access.

The incumbent will provide technical guidance for the implementation of the RFA to implement the UNPD on NCDs and the RFA on cancer prevention and control, to strengthen and accelerate the rollout of the WHO global initiatives on cancer, namely Global Initiative for Childhood Cancer, Global Cervical Cancer Elimination Initiative, and Global Breast Cancer Initiative, as well as the Cervical Cancer Elimination Initiative. The present consultation will also support the implementation of the multisectoral strategies for the prevention and control of NCDs to manage cancer and the prevention of risk factors.

Start date: 1 January 2025

End date: 30 June 2025

**4.** **Work to be performed**

***The consultants’ responsibilities will include the following:
1. Review available literature for regional/country situation analysis on population health needs, prevailing risks, and the context within which MSAP will be applied as well as cancer;
2. Develop presentations, progress reports and briefs on multisectoral action for NCD prevention and control, and cancer;
3. Assist in in drafting, formatting and editing normative and communication documents on multisectoral action

on NCDs, aligned with relevant WHO guidance and liaise with necessary partners across the three levels of WHO;
4. Support the adaptation and dissemination of the WHO Toolkit for developing a multisectoral action plan for

NCDs in the Eastern Mediterranean Region and support member states in developing and implementing MSAPs;
5. Contribute to the development of advocacy tools to promote increased budget allocations for NCD prevention and control and strengthened multisectoral action, such as national cases for investing in cost-effective interventions (best buys).

6. Support Member States in the implementation of the WHO Framework for Meaningful Engagement of People living with NCDs with a focus on cancer;
7. Provide support to member states towards the establishment of multisectoral governance mechanisms for NCD prevention and control, as needed;
