Job Title: Senior Health Coordinator
Sector: Health
Location: Tanzania
Employee Type: Regular
Employee Category: Full Time
Description
Background:
The IRC has been responding to the needs of refugees from the Great lakes Region in Western Tanzania since the early 90’s when the genocide against the Tutsi and civil conflicts in the neighbouring nations resulted in a protracted refugee situation that persists to date. The IRC had been providing assistance to the protracted refugee population in refugee camps in the areas of Health, Education, Community Based Rehabilitation, Women and Child Protection. With the resolution of these conflicts, many refugees returned home with closure of camps to leave only Nyarugusu camp (one of the oldest refugee camps in the world having been set up in 1996). In late April 2015, political tension around the presidential elections in neighboring Burundi sparked months of deadly protests and violence. As at the end of February 2016, more than 130,000 Burundian asylum seekers have fled into Tanzania. The IRC has been on the ground rapidly responding to the needs of asylum seekers in all pre-existent program areas. The health sector has thus undergone a rapid scale up of activities including emergency primary and reproductive health units, hygiene and sanitation as well as the establishment of health posts at Manyovu and Kagunga border entry points to provide health consultations for both refugees and host community members. IRC also manages the Kigoma Refugee Transit Center (RTC-Kigoma), including medical referral support for all the health partners operating in the old camp as well as the two new refugee camps of Nduta and Mtendeli reopened in October 2015 and January 2016 respectively.
A multi-sectoral approach is being employed through an outcome based implementation of programs in Health, Child Protection; Education; Women’s Protection; Community Based Rehabilitation and Host Community Projects on education, livelihoods and child labour. Most of these programs are directly implemented by the IRC in coordination with INGOs, local NGOs, UNHCR and other UN partners and the Government of Tanzania.
In Health, the IRC is working closely with the health agency in Nyarugusu Refugee camp to support the delivery of reproductive health services to the new arrivals, with UNHCR and health partners in all three camps to ensure access to external medical care through the implementation of an interagency referrals program, running of a primary health clinic at the Refugee Transit Centre in Kigoma (RTC-Kigoma) and conducting medical screening and assistance to refugees arriving through 11 border entry points along the international border between Burundi and Tanzania.
