Sep 16, TAConnect LTD/GTE Graphic/Visual Illustration Consultant Jobs in Nigeria

This job description (JD)/scope of work (SOW) sets forth the services to be provided by the Graphic/Visual illustration Consultant to Technical Advice Connect LTD/GTE (TAConnect), a non-profit organization registered in 2021 and based in Nigeria to bring innovative solutions to the provision of Technical Assistance (TA) services to states in Nigeria.

Background: Technical Advice Connect LTD/GTE (TAConnect) is an innovative Technical Assistance (TA) delivery platform, instituted by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to respond to State TA priorities to promote sustainable improvements in State Primary Healthcare (PHC) systems’ performance and increase the uptake of Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn, Child, and Adolescent Health and Nutrition (RMNCAH+N) services.

Working with the State Ministries of health (SMoH), State Primary Health Care Development Agencies (SPHCDAs), and Local Government Health Authorities (LGHAs), TAConnect has supported eight states to adopt, implement, and sustain GANC/PNC as a health systems intervention that can serve as a veritable platform to improve the uptake and quality of well-integrated RMNCH services.

Going forward with the successes of GANC/PNC innovation, TAConnect under its new investment will be supporting states to leverage the G-ANC/PNC model as a veritable platform to layer a suite of contextualized RMNCAH+N high-impact interventions leveraging a strong data-driven and evidence-based framework that will ramp uptake of key services such as family planning, maternal and childhood immunization, malaria in pregnancy, nutrition and newborn care service with the aim of improving maternal and newborn outcomes.

With the significant change in the scope of the GANC model with the expectation to layer high-impact interventions along the continuum of care, it has become imperative and expedient to review and update the GANC manual to reflect the current implementation approach to ensure that G-ANC/PNC cohorts receive integrated and holistic services along the continuum that are women-centered and of high quality.

This update will ensure that the G-ANC manual is enriched with relevant content on high-impact interventions such as PPFP, PAFP, Immunization and newborn care and cross-cutting themes such as gender to provide cohorts with adequate information to make informed decisions to improve their health. Along with the manual was a set of picture card developed to convey relevant pictural content on high-impact interventions as mentioned.
