Short-term International Consultant

Manila, National Capital Region, Philippines WHO - World Health Organization Full time

Terms of Reference

Unit:
Integrated Communicable Diseases (ICD)

Division:

DDC

A.
Purpose of the Consultancy


Under the supervision and guidance of the technical lead of Neglected Tropical Diseases and the Coordinator of the Integrated Communicable Diseases (ICD) unit of the Division of Disease Control (
DDC), in collaboration with the Health Ministries in the Western Pacific Region, WHO country offices NTD focal persons, and HQ/NTD Department, the consultant will support the collection and reporting of data and information on neglected Zoonotic Diseases (including Rabies), introduction of rabies vaccines and supply of donated health commodities (vaccines, drugs, and diagnostics), and provide operational and technical support to accelerate control and elimination of rabies through integrated, specialized, and PHC-based approaches in line with the one health approaches in the Western Pacific Region.

This requires strengthening regular supply of human rabies vaccines to the most vulnerable and unreached populations at risk of rabies.


B.
Background


Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) are a diverse group of disease conditions that are most common in tropical and subtropical regions.

These diseases most heavily affect people living without access to adequate sanitation, basic infrastructure, and health services. In addition to significant morbidity and mortality, these diseases can lead to stigma and discrimination in communities. WHO prioritizes 20 diseases affecting more than 1 billion people in 149 countries as NTDs. Of these, 16 are endemic in 22 countries and areas in the WHO Western Pacific Region.

One of these endemic NTDs is Rabies which, if not prevented through effective human rabies vaccines and immunoglobulins, is 100% fatal.

Fortunately, deaths from rabies are 100% preventable with effective access to Post Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) , which includes human rabies vaccines.


WHO has issued new guidelines for human rabies vaccines to support countries to ensure the availability of these vaccines to those at risk of rabies (mostly children and the most vulnerable and hard to reach areas).

Six countries in the Western Pacific Region are Rabies endemic. These countries include Mongolia, China, Malaysia, Viet Nam, Cambodia, Lao PDR, and the Philippines.

Key priorities to eliminate Rabies include adequate access to Post-Exposure Prophylaxis against Rabies, Canine Rabies Vaccination, Integrated Bite Case Management, multisectoral action, cross-border collaboration Rapid response and community mobilization.


Through this consultancy, the rabies endemic countries in the Western Pacific Region will receive support in having access to GAVI Funding in case of those countries which are eligible for GAVI support.

In addition, the endemic countries will receive support on the new WHO guidelines for rabies vaccination to strengthen the availability of human rabies vaccination and strengthening the supply chain (including cold chain) systems for human rabies vaccination alongside efforts to strengthen the underlying health systems.
