Description du poste

 
Helen Keller International (HKI) is an international non-governmental organization whose mission is to the sight and lives of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged by combating the causes and consequences of blindness and malnutrition. We do this by establishing programs based on evidence and research in vision, health and nutrition.
After over a decade of CMAM programming there are still significantgaps in the capacity to deliver treatment services. As a result most of children in need are left without care and remain at high risk.Additional weaknesses include linking treatment with existing preventive programs or platforms,including contact-points within the health system that could be used as opportunities for screening and referral. Consequently, coverage of CMAM services in MoH-integrated services has been low. HKI has long-standing expertise in supporting capacity development of local public sector to plan, train, deliver and monitor CMAM services. HKI’s CMAM approach has been to integrate treatment of acute malnutrition into a larger preventive framework through the promotion of essential nutrition actions (ENA) and social behavior change communication (SBCC) techniques.
