Panamá Provincia de Panamá, Panamá Clinton Health Access Initiative A tiempo completo

Overview:
The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to our mission of saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in low-and middle-income countries. We work at the invitation of governments to support them and the private sector to create and sustain high-quality health systems.

CHAI was founded in 2002 in response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic with the goal of dramatically reducing the price of life-saving drugs and increasing access to these medicines in the countries with the highest burden of the disease. Over the following two decades, CHAI has expanded its focus. Today, along with HIV, we work in conjunction with our partners to prevent and treat infectious diseases such as COVID-19, malaria, tuberculosis, and hepatitis. Our work has also expanded into cancer, diabetes, hypertension, and other non-communicable diseases, and we work to accelerate the rollout of lifesaving vaccines, reduce maternal and child mortality, combat chronic malnutrition, and increase access to assistive technology. We are investing in horizontal approaches to strengthen health systems through programs in human resources for health, digital health, and health financing. With each new and innovative program, our strategy is grounded in maximizing sustainable impact at scale, ensuring that governments lead the solutions, that programs are designed to scale nationally, and learnings are shared globally.

CHAI is an Equal Opportunity Employer, and is committed to providing an environment of fairness, and mutual respect where all applicants have access to equal employment opportunities. CHAI values diversity and inclusion, and recognizes that our mission is best advanced by the leadership and contributions of people with diverse experience, backgrounds, and culture.

**About the Team**:
In 2014, CHAI began working in Latin America & the Caribbean (LAC) to support the Ministries of Health in their goal to eliminate malaria. Since then, CHAI has continuously grown in the region and has worked on multiple projects including Digital Health, Dengue, Essential Medicines, Medical Oxygen; providing support to various countries: Dominican Republic, Haiti, Honduras, Guatemala, Panama, Ecuador, among others.

CHAI’s LAC Malaria & Neglected Tropical Diseases program provides direct technical and operational support to countries in the region to strengthen their vector borne diseases programs and reduce the burden of malaria, dengue, and other neglected tropical diseases (NTDs).

In Panama, CHAI’s LAC Malaria & Neglected Tropical Diseases program is helping the government to scale up effective interventions for prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and surveillance, to achieve malaria elimination and to reduce the incidence and mortality of dengue.

**Overview of Role**

CHAI seeks to recruit a highly motivated team member to expand and coordinate our efforts to optimize the selection, the coverage, impact and cost-effectiveness of vector control interventions and entomological surveillance for malaria and dengue in countries in Central America. The Associate will mostly support the Ministry of Health of Panama to collect and analyze data to select appropriate vector control interventions, to target them to the right populations and places, to plan and execute their implementation and to monitor their performance. Additionally, provide support for malaria-related activities focused on reducing cases in the field. However, the Associate will be sometimes requested to provide support and travel to other countries in the region needed.

This role will report directly to CHAI’s Country Program Manager in Panama. Technical backstopping will be provided by CHAI’s Regional Technical Advisor on Vector Control and Entomological Surveillance.

This position is based in Panama City, Panama. This role requires travel to remote regions with limited infrastructure and medical care.

**Responsibilities**:

- Provide technical and operational support with selecting, targeting, planning, budgeting, implementing, monitoring and evaluating vector control interventions for malaria and dengue, and conducting needed entomological surveillance. **This will include**:

- Serving as a trusted adviser to the government on issues related to vector control and entomological surveillance, specifically to translate corresponding normative guidance and new scientific evidence into practical programs.
- Identify key gaps in vector control that hamper effective control of vector-borne diseases and develop strategies to fill these gaps.
- Assist the government in developing or updating national vector control, entomological surveillance and resistance monitoring and management plans.
- Help malaria and dengue programs to plan for the introduction of new effective vector control tools as they come into market (e.g. spatial repellents, Wolbachia, ATSBs, transgenic mosquitoes).
- Help the government in devising and budgeting a
