How can you make a difference?

Purpose of the Assignment: UNICEF is seeking a consultant to develop a practical, evidence-based guide to support the integration of HIV services into Primary Health Care (PHC) systems in low HIV burden countries across Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean. The assignment aims to help governments and partners strengthen early HIV identification, improve access to prevention and treatment services, enhance continuity of care, and promote sustainable, people-centered health systems through integrated service delivery models.

UNICEF’s HIV team in the Centre of Excellence (COE) for Low Burden Countries is supporting countries across Western and Central Africa, Middle East and North Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, Eastern Europe and Central Asia, and the Asia-Pacific to transition toward integrated HIV-PHC service delivery models. To guide this process, UNICEF seeks to develop practical, evidence-based technical guidance, including examples that are working, to support governments and partners in implementing HIV integration across key PHC platforms.

The purpose of this consultancy is therefore to develop a concise, user-friendly and practical guide that translates existing HIV and PHC integration guidance into actionable steps, tools, entry points and examples for country teams working in low HIV burden settings.
