UNICEF (HRM), Ethiopia; Human Resources Management of Regional and Zonal level Immunization Technical Assistants (2020- Ongoing): Open or Close

 

The impact of the ongoing pandemic of COVID-19 on immunization service delivery in Ethiopia is of significant concern for the MoH as well as partners. Although the MoH has released operational guidance for maintaining immunization services during the COVID-19 pandemic, immunization services in some health facilities were disrupted due to multiple factors related to the engagement of health facilities and health extension workers in the COVID-19 response, and reduced demand due to social distancing advisories.

ABH has recruited and deployed these consultants under its HRM LTA with UNICEF.

Such rapid expansion of the service across the region required monitoring of the quality of services provided by HEWs and the Health Workers. ABH is leading HRM for this initiative in SSNPR.
