*STRATEGIC INFORMATION ADVISOR
WINDHOEK, NAMIBIA

GHFP is seeking a Technical Advisor Level III: Strategic Information Advisor (GHFP-
10-183) in Windhoek. The Global Health Fellows Program (GHFP) is a five year
cooperative agreement implemented and managed by the Public Health Institute (PHI)
in partnership with the Harvard School of Public Health, Management Systems
International, and Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine.
GHFP is supported by the US Agency for International Development (USAID). The
goal of GHFP is to improve the effectiveness of USAID Population, Health and
Nutrition programs by developing and increasing capacity of health professionals in
Washington, DC and overseas. This is accomplished through the recruitment,
placement and support of junior, mid and senior level health professionals; a diversity
initiative focused on providing internship and mentoring opportunities in international
public health to underrepresented communities; and professional and organizational
development activities to bolster USAID’s ability to maximize results and strengthen its
leadership role in global health. Namibia has a generalized HIV epidemic with HIV
primarily transmitted through heterosexual contact. The national HIV prevalence for
adults in 2007 was approximately 15.4 percent. This estimate is projected to decrease to
13.3 percent, by end of 2010. In 2008/9 there were approximately 193,800 adults and
children living with HIV and AIDS in Namibia. This number is projected to remain at
about 194,000 by 2015/16, assuming prevention and treatment efforts remain at current
levels. Namibia’s maternal mortality rate has increased from 271 deaths in 100,000 live
births during 2000 to 449 deaths in 100,000 live births in 2006/2007. Approximately
33% percent maternal deaths in Namibia are directly caused by severe pre-eclampsia
and eclampsia. Obstructed and prolonged labor and hemorrhage combined are a further
50% of the cause while 16.6% are attributable to postpartum sepsis and complications
of abortion. Economically, Namibia has the highest level of income disparity in the
world. Despite a relatively high per capita GNI of USD $4,200, nearly 56% of the
Namibian population lives on just $2 per day or less, and 1 in 2 Namibians are out of
work. Within this context, USAID/Namibia seeks a dynamic applicant to join the
