Invitation for “Consultant: JICA Yen Loan (Health) Project Coordinator”
Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) is an implementing agency of Japanese Official Development Assistance (ODA) in Bangladesh since 1974. With our vision “Leading the world with trust”, JICA aims to provide effective support to promote development that will result in sustainable socioeconomic growth and poverty reduction.
JICA’s support for the HPNSP has been provided by the combinations of yen loans and technical cooperation. Currently, we have three yen loan projects: 1) Maternal, Neonatal and Child Health Improvement project (Phase-1), 2) Maternal, Neonatal and Child Health and Health System Improvement Project and 3) Health Services Strengthening Project and two technical cooperation projects: 1) Capacity Building of Nursing Services and 2) Strengthening Health Systems through Organizing Communities.
Under the guidance of JICA Bangladesh Office, the Consultant is expected to monitor and facilitate the implementation of the above yen loan projects by working closely with MOHFW as well as other stakeholders beyond the health sector such as Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Housing and Public Works. The yen loan projects are programmed to create synergies with the technical cooperation projects. Therefore, the Consultant is expected to coordinate effectively with the technical cooperation project teams as necessary to maximize results.
