Broad Branch Associates seeks a fluent Spanish speaker to conduct key informant interviews with senior government and health officials in Meso-America
Statement of Work
Broad Branch Associates seeks a fluent Spanish speaker who is based in the Washington, DC area to interview senior government officials in Central America and one state in Mexico. Interviews (10-20) will be conducted by skype, phone and video conference. Knowledge of health systems and maternal and child health and nutrition needed.
Background
The Inter-American Development Bank (IADB) leads the Salud Mesoamérica 2015 Initiative (SM2015), a regional public-private partnership that brings together Mesoamerican countries, private foundations, bilateral and multilateral donors. The overarching goal of SM2015 is to reduce health inequalities, and improve health outcomes for the poorest populations in the region. The innovative model provides funding to support supply and demand-side interventions, particularly changes in policy, new interventions, the expansion of proven and cost-effective healthcare packages and the delivery of incentives for effective health services. Some of its innovative features are the application of a results-based financing model (RBF), rigorous performance measurement, enhanced transparency in reporting, accountability and assessment of impact. The initiative is focused on integrating key interventions, aimed at reducing health inequalities resulting from the lack of access to nutrition, reproductive, maternal and neonatal health for the poorest segments of the population. As experience with SM2015 has grown, there are a number of lessons that are important to share with other low- and middle-income countries and with those who provide financial and technical support to help strengthen health results, especially for the poorest.
Responsibilities
The Consultant will be in an integral part of the team that will be conducting key informant interviews that will generate information that will contribute to a series of papers that will communicate the SM2015 experience. Each interview will be recorded so that interviews can be transcribed and translated. Knowledge of health systems in Central America and Mexico and content knowledge about what it takes to deliver quality MNCH services to the poor is important. Strong interview skills that include conducting interviews using a structured instrument and listening and probing to identify key information is required. Interviews will be conducted in April and May 2015. Responsibilities include:
- Familiarize him/herself with the details of the SM2015 Initiative.
- Translate instruments from English to Spanish
- Interview key informants via phone/skype/VC
- Record interviews
- Summarize interviews
- Communicate regularly with the BBA team
Application deadline is April 3, 2015.
