Terms of reference for the drawing of pictures / designs for use in a coital diary for the Longitudinal Study: Ceshhar Zimbabwe
Deadline 26 June 2020

We aim to recruit an artist who will support the design and development of a pictorial coital diary, which will be used to collect data in a longitudinal study with female sex workers. The TORs will provide the background, conditions and responsibilities of the position.

Background
Sex workers appear to be especially vulnerable to HIV infection. Despite a decrease in the prevalence rate in the general population, about 54% of new infections are estimated to be coming from key populations, sex workers included. Despite their high vulnerability to HIV infection, low rates of condom use and a high prevalence of sexually transmitted infections has been reported among sex workers. In the PrEP demonstration project incorporated within the SAPPH-IRe trial, sex workers often cited ‘getting married’ as the major reason for stopping PrEP. However, these women often return to the Sex Work Clinic, sometime later following a breakdown of these ‘marriages’. These transitions in and out of sex work have important implications on the effectiveness of intervention programs aimed at reducing their vulnerability.

Data collected on sex work is highly sensitive, and subject to recall and socially desirability bias, particularly if collected through face to face interviews. Diaries, a qualitative data collection tool in which the participant completes in private, on a daily basis might reduce these biases and help us in gaining an in-depth understanding of how often women transition in and out sex work and what factors surround the reasons of sex work. To this end CeSHHAR Zimbabwe is seeking the services of a seasoned artist who will help in developing a pictorial coital diary that will be used as a data collection tool in the longitudinal study.

Objective of the consultancy
The overall objective of this consultancy is to design and develop symbols to be used in the coital diary based on advice from the Research Director and female sex workers.

Call for Applications – Development of Child Online Safety Guidelines: Childline Zimbabwe
Deadline: 28 June 2020

Childline Zimbabwe is a registered Private Voluntary Organisation (PVO 7/2001). Childline provides a 24hour child friendly reporting and counselling platform. The organisation seeks to provide children, families and those involved with children, preventative, educational, therapeutic and rehabilitation services in addition to research and advocacy. Childline’s vision is: ‘A Zimbabwe that is passionate about the protection of children, championing, guarding and protecting their rights’. This is achieved through the organization’s mission: ‘To champion, defend and promote the rights of children in Zimbabwe through the provision of safe, confidential and child friendly reporting mechanisms centred around a free 24-hour counselling service’.

In the last few years Zimbabwe has noticed greater internet usage among children and adults. The new education curriculum emphasizes the use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) in school and mobile data providers have opened free Wi-Fi hotspots around the country making the internet more accessible to every person in the country. An increase in the access of online spaces by children and young people also translates to an increase in their chances of being abused online. Childline launched an Online Safety Campaign in 2019, based on the fact that internet usage for children and youth in Zimbabwe has increased and yet there is not much public education on how to use the internet responsibly and how to be safe online. Online safety includes security features of data and personal information as well as for devices used to go online, safety on the internet when using online information sharing as well as on voice calls and text messages.

The Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority has produced guides for online child protection. Although the guidelines are intended for children, the comprehensibility is for young people and adults. In order to make the guidelines usable for all ages of children, Childline plans to create a child friendly, simplified version in two local languages. Copies of the child friendly guidelines and an online version will be shared widely. Childline is therefore inviting applications from individuals and/or firms that can develop child friendly online safety guidelines and translate the guidelines into Ndebele and Shona.

The successful candidate should have the skills and experience necessary to
Develop a child friendly, simplified online safety guideline with different sections including: What online safety is; Guidelines for online safety for different age groups of children; How to be safe online; How to identify online threats; How and where to report online abuse; What the law says about cybercrime and cyber threats; Fun quizzes and tests at the end of each section for comprehension; Translate the child friendly simplified version of the online safety guidelines into Ndebele and Shona; Illustrate and design the guidelines with child friendly designs that can be comprehended by all children

Program and Operations Director: International Medical Corps
Deadline: 3 July 2020 (COB)

Station: Bulawayo

International Medical Corps is a global humanitarian non-profit organization dedicated to saving lives and relieving suffering through health care training and relief and development programs. Established in 1984 by volunteer doctors and nurses, International Medical Corps is a private, voluntary, non-political, non-sectarian organization. Its mission is to improve the quality of life through health interventions and related activities that build local capacity in areas worldwide. By offering training and health care to local populations and medical assistance to people at high risk, and with the flexibility to respond rapidly to emergency situations, International Medical Corps rehabilitates devastated health care systems and helps bring them back to self-reliance.

Position Summary
Challenging weather conditions have significantly affected the lives and livelihoods of people in Zimbabwe, especially in the southern region, where food insecurity and malnutrition rates are some of the highest in the country. More than a decade of economic decline has exacerbated the situation, as most communities have experienced a drop in owner-produced stocks, and households previously engaged in subsistence farming have resorted to market purchases. Poor water and sanitation facilities in both urban and rural areas increase the risk of diseases, such as cholera and typhoid. Since International Medical Corps’ operations began in Zimbabwe in 2009, we have delivered quality health services, nutrition and food-security programs, and have reduced the spread of waterborne diseases by increasing access to clean water and improving hygiene practices.

International Medical Corps’ Zimbabwe mission has recently provided Nutrition, Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) and maternal and child health support and preparedness capacity-building. Operations have been centralized in Matabeleland North and South provinces (Gwanda, Tsholotsho, Bulilima, Nkayi and Mangwe districts), and there is a project proposal that would expand coverage out to Binga district. Additionally, International Medical Corps has partnered in a consortium with other international NGOs in the implementation of the Amalima program. Amalima is a USAID Food for Peace funded Development Food Security Activity program with a program duration from 2013-20. Program activities were in drought prone, food insecure districts in Matabeleland North (Tsholotsho) and Matabeleland South (Bulilima, Mangwe and Gwanda) provinces covering the Nutrition and WASH sectors. It is anticipated that the program will continue in a second phase into 2025.
