by Public Health Update
written by Public Health Update

Background

The McGill Global Health Scholars – Graduate program supports McGill graduate students (Masters and PhD) conducting global health research internationally in a lower- or middle-income country (LMIC) or in Northern Canada. The research project submitted for funding consideration must be related to the student’s thesis or graduation requirements and must be conducted under the supervision of a McGill faculty member. During the academic year, Global Health Scholars benefit from a variety of training and networking opportunities organized by Global Health Programs (GHP). This includes the McGill Summer Institutes in Global Health, GHP’s annual Global Health Night and other events and opportunities.

Key Dates

  • Launch of call for student applications: January 10, 2022
  • Application Deadline: February 11, 2022
  • Announcement of results: March 31, 2022

Program Timeline

  • GHS Graduates Introduction Meeting: May 2022 (Date TBD)
  • Pre-Departure Training:  Complete 8 weeks prior to travel
  • Travel to Research Site: 6 weeks onsite between May 1, 2022 – April 30, 2023*
  • Global Health Method Exchange Events: Between October 2022 – April 2023
  • Global Health Night: November 2022 (Date TBD)
  • Final Report and Survey: Within 6 weeks of completing travel

*For MScPH students, travel must occur between May-August 2022 and must be directly linked to the student’s practicum placement.

Eligibility Criteria

In order to be eligible to apply for the Global Health Scholars – Graduate program, students must meet the following eligibility criteria:

  • Must be currently enrolled in a graduate program at McGill (Masters or PhD level).
  • Students graduating in May/June 2022 are not eligible to apply.
  • Postdoctoral fellows are not eligible to apply.
  • Students who have been part of a previous Global Health Scholars – Graduate cohort are not eligible to apply.

Eligible Projects

  • Each year the Global Health Scholars – Graduate program supports students from a wide variety of disciplines representative of the diversity found under the umbrella of global health. This includes, but is not limited to: medicine, nursing, health sciences, nutrition, rehabilitation, law, social sciences, engineering, education, agriculture, epidemiology, population and public health, and health policy.
  • Projects can entail field-based or lab-based work conducted in an international setting (LMIC country) or in Northern Canada (indigenous health). The work must relate to the student’s thesis or graduation requirements.
  • Students should have the support and approval of their McGill supervisor to conduct the proposed research and should have a local partner with an agreed-upon research activities plan before beginning. If the project is at the stage of implementation, it must have the approvals of all appropriate ethics boards.
  • Learn about previous Global Health Scholars – Graduate cohorts

Funding

  • Students completing their project remotely or on-site locally (i.e. on-campus or in the Montreal area) will receive a stipend of up to $1,500.
  • If a student’s International / Northern Canada on-site work plan is initiated, students will receive up to an additional $1,500 (totalling $3,000) to contribute towards travel costs. If a student is not able to travel, the stipend will not exceed $1,500.
  • Actual research costs (e.g. equipment, tests) are expected to be borne by the student’s supervisor or department.
  • A student or trainee is eligible for only one award from GHP for the same trip. Any additional funding requests to GHP would have to be for a trip separate from the six weeks of travel covered by the Global Health Scholars – Graduate Program.

It is also plausible that students may be able to travel to their research site at some point between May 2022 and April 2023.
  • All projects must include a remote work plan as well as an on-site work plan for students.
  • Working alongside their designated supervisor, students should be prepared to transition to remote work at any point if it is not possible to be on campus, to work from a McGill affiliated location, or to travel to an international/or northern Canada research site.
  • Travel can only proceed with prior approval from a student’s program or department. Approval should be dependent upon the directives set forth by McGill University, the Government of Quebec, travel advisories posted by Global Affairs Canada, the host country, and the onsite partner organization. GHP will consider the possibility of travel for students that is initiated by April 1, 2023. If travel is not possible at this point, students will need to complete work on their projects remotely or on-site locally. 

Additional Travel-Related Information

  • Students must be onsite at least six weeks to be eligible. The six weeks do not have to be consecutive.
  • Travel can occur at any point between May 1, 2022 and April 30, 2023. Travel must be initiated by April 1, 2023 at the latest.

World NTD Day 2022: Achieving health equity to end the neglect of poverty-related diseases
PH Important DayPublic HealthPublic Health EventsPublic Health Update

World NTD Day 2022: Achieving health equity to end the neglect of poverty-related diseases

by Public Health Update
written by Public Health Update

Overview

The World Neglected Tropical Diseases Day is observed on 30 January each year. The first-ever World NTD Day was celebrated on 30 January 2020. This international day is an opportunity to re-energize the momentum to end the suffering from these 20 diseases that are caused by a variety of pathogens including viruses, bacteria, parasites, fungi and toxins.

The Road map for Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) 2021–2030

Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) are widespread in the world’s poorest regions, where water safety, sanitation and access to health care are substandard. NTDs affect over 1 billion people globally and are caused mostly by a variety of pathogens including viruses, bacteria, parasites, fungi, and toxins.

Objective

The day provides an opportunity to focus on the millions of people who have limited or no access to prevention, treatment and care services. World NTD Day aims to bring together civil society advocates, community leaders, global health experts and policymakers working across the diverse NTD landscape, and unifies partners behind a common goal: to Face NTDs and #EndTheNeglect.

Facts

  • Despite COVID-19, a total of 757 million people received NTD treatment in 2020.
  • More than 1 billion are affected by NTDs. In total, 1.7 billion need preventive treatment every year.
  • Unprecedented progress has been achieved. 43 countries have eliminated at least one NTD.

Key messages

  • Re-energize the movement to combat NTDs 2022: the year to shine a spotlight on NTDs and the suffering they cause, and to call for comprehensive, universal care for everyone affected. It is our collective responsibility to end diseases that are entirely preventable.
  • Use innovative services to ensure continued access to NTD services during COVID-19
    Countries and NTD programmes must use innovations that have emerged before and during the pandemic to address disruptions and delays to the delivery of services.
  • Encourage collaboration across sectors such as health, education, nutrition, mental health
    Countries can beat NTDs through bold investments, actions and collaboration. WHO’s new NTD roadmap focuses on the value of integrating approaches and focusing on a number of specific NTDs.
  • Engage and support community health workers and volunteers
    Community health workers and volunteers can deliver effective NTD health services, especially to marginalized groups but these workers need support and protection.
  • Engage communities
    Informed and educated communities can help in the prevention, control and elimination of NTDs.

100% Committed movement

The 100% Committed movement will be led by countries affected by NTDs, backed by bold financial and political commitments from a wide range of stakeholders, and championed by civil society, influencers and people affected by NTDs, who will call for action.

  • Kicking off on World NTD Day (30 January 2022), we are launching an energising global movement to end NTDs.
  • The movement – called 100% Committed – will be led by countries affected by these diseases. It will be backed by bold financial and political commitments from a wide range of stakeholders and championed by civil society, influencers and people affected by NTDs, who will call for action.
  • It will be energising, positive and aspirational in tone, highlighting how we are 100% Committed to achieving the WHO’s ambitious target of 100 countries eliminating an NTD by 2030 and, ultimately, ending NTDs.
  • It will showcase the 43 countries that have already eliminated at least one NTD, proving that ending NTDs is possible. We will push for greater action and commitments on this basis.

We are 100% Committed to ending NTDs. Together, we call on our governments, parliamentarians, mayors and local governmental leaders, as well as continental and regional bodies, pharmaceutical companies, donors, multilateral organisations, academic and research institutions, non-governmental organisations and young leaders around the world, to show they are 100% Committed to ending NTDs by signing the Kigali Declaration on NTDs and pledging commitments.

  • Incredible progress made so far proves that ending NTDs is possible.
  • Efforts to tackle NTDs are a global health success story, but there is still a lot more work to be done before the world is free of NTDs:
    • These diseases continue to affect 1.7 billion people around the world. 
    • The COVID-19 pandemic is threatening hard-fought progress.
    • Concerted action is needed to avoid COVID-19 and future pandemics unravelling years of progress and exposing millions of people to these diseases.
  • Ending NTDs will make our health systems more resilient and our world a more equitable and safer place.
  • Ending NTDs is possible within our lifetime – now is the moment for leaders to make commitments.

Vacancy Announcement for Sr. Research Program Coordinator

by Public Health Update
written by Public Health Update

Position: Sr. Research Program Coordinator

Job Req ID:  73518

Ethiopia has achieved recognition as one of the few countries that has developed a dynamic and effective national primary health care system (PHC) which has made it possible for the country to meet the Millennium Development Goals for health and to come close to achieving Universal Health Coverage. Through Ethiopia’s Health Extension Program (HEP), the gap between frontline heath workers and communities was overcome by deploying Community Health Workers and building community health posts for them to use. This community-based system of PHC has become the foundation of the broader health system.

As a result of these achievements, Ethiopia’s Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH) founded the International Institute for Primary Health Care – Ethiopia (IIfPHC-E), referred to here also as the Institute). Its goal is to support and strengthen the Ethiopian PHC system while serving as a PHC knowledge powerhouse providing teaching, knowledge sharing, research and advocacy to the rest of the world, especially other African countries. At the request of the FMOH, the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health (JHU) supported its startup in 2016. Since then JHU has provided technical and operational support to the Institute to assist with its development.

The Institute’s strategic plan identifies four strategic themes:

  • Support for the national (Ethiopian) PHC program
  • Support for PHC in other countries
  • Support for knowledge generation and management, monitoring and evaluation of PHC
  • Advocacy and partnership formation to advance the Global PHC Agenda

We are seeking a Senior Research Program Coordinator  who serves a key coordination and facilitation role between the team at Johns Hopkins and the team at IPHC-E in Ethoipia. The role includes a range of administrative tasks and also opportunities to engage in developing key products for IPHC-E and engaging with partners. The role has the opportunity for growth, including potential promotion into a Research Associate position based on performance and qualifications.

Specific Duties & Responsibilities:

As a member of a small team working on ambitious goals, we seek a candidate who thrives in a fluid workplace, is nimble and resourceful.  

Specific duties include but are not restricted to:

  • Coordinate the administrative and scientific implementation of the IIfPHC-E project
  • Maintain communications between the team in Ethiopia and JHU regarding progress on work products as well as disbursement of project funds
  • Host project-related meetings (on Zoom or in person), prepare notes and document decisions 
  • Track progress towards grant and contract targets and deliverables and ensure accountability of all team members
  • Maintain relationships and organize communications between the project team and advisory committees, any consultants/sub-contractors, and other senior advisors
  • Develop and maintain a project Dropbox (or similar online database) to track and file all products and data relevant to project implementation and deliverables
  • Facilitate visits from IIfPHC-E team members to JHU and vice versa
  • Contribute to the further development and promotion of the Resource Center at IIfPHC-E
  • Contribute to data analysis and product development (including but not limited to advocacy materials, policy briefs, reports, peer-reviewed publications, and other products)
  • Contribute to the development and delivery of curricula and online course content
  • Track learner progress via online platforms, facilitate technical assistance for online learners as needed, and support evaluations of training programs
  • Other duties as needed

Minimum Qualifications (Mandatory):

  • Bachelor’s Degree in a related discipline.
  • 3 years related experience.

Vacancy Announcement for Research Program Officer

by Public Health Update
written by Public Health Update

Position: Research Program Officer

Job Req ID:  68777

The Bill & Melinda Gates Institute within the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health (JHSPH) has launched a second phase of an innovative survey research program in partnership with Jhpiego, Performance Monitoring for Action (PMA), formerly PMA2020. The project is designed to deliver high-quality, rapid-turnaround data to public health policymakers, program managers, and other stakeholders at frequent intervals to promote data-driven decision-making to improve the health and welfare of populations. To achieve this goal, PMA recruits women from a set of nationally or sub-nationally representative sentinel communities and trains them to collect data on a routine basis using smartphone technology. Data are collected at both households and facilities.

PMA operates in eight geographies. The core survey covers family planning (including contraceptive dynamics) and reproductive health indicators, while maintaining flexibility to add new modules in related health areas according to local data needs. It also includes a panel design that follows a cohort of reproductive age women on an annual basis and a representative set of service delivery points over a 3-year period. The panel is combined with periodic cross-sections drawn from the same sampled, sentinel communities. The PMA Global team, based in Baltimore, is composed of faculty, staff, and masters and doctoral students. This team works closely with universities and research institutes across the constituent geographies to implement the surveys and to build capacity of those organizations to undertake this work independently.

The PMA Global partner Jhpiego oversees sub-award management with country partners and promotes platform sustainability, communications and data utilization efforts.

PMA is seeking a full-time Research Program Officer I to support computer programming and data management activities across several project countries and in Baltimore.

  • Assisting with analysis for reports, data briefs, and auxiliary publications.
  • Coordinating and assisting with training of in-country partner technical staff as needed 

The Research Program Officer will report to PMA’s Research Program Officer for public data release and will also assist with additional data management and technical support needs that arise throughout the life of the project.

Minimum qualifications:

  • Master’s in public health or related field, with specialization in biostatistics, epidemiology, demographic method, or other concentration with a strong quantitative/analytical field. Minimum of three years of data management experience, requiring advanced skills with Stata, SPSS, SAS, or R.
