In 2022 the population of concern to UNHCR in Italy increased considerably mainly due to the war in the Ukraine. By year end 174000 Ukrainians had officially arrived and 168000 applied for temporary protection making Ukrainians the biggest population of concern to UNHCR. In parallel more than 105000 individuals arrived by sea an increase of 56% compared to 2021. In 2023 arrival trends year to date are significantly high and while there have been fluctuations in levels of arrivals the drivers of the movements from the Sahel Tigray and other countries such as Afghanistan moving along the Central Mediterranean and Balkan routes will remain or worsen because of the negative impacts of conflicts and climate change. In Italy UNHCR works with the Italian government other organizations and refugees themselves to uphold the basic human rights of stateless persons and people forced to flee and to improve laws and national systems so refugees and stateless persons stay safe get documents can go to school work and exercise other rights. Through its staff and partners UNHCR is engaged in activities aimed at ensuring full and equal enjoyment of rights by all persons of concern addressing protection risks in an Age Gender and Diversity (AGD) sensitive manner with a particular focus on persons with specific needs such as unaccompanied and separated children (UASC) and survivors of gender-based violence (GBV). UNHCR's protection delivery is based on a community-based protection approach which aims at putting people of concern at the center of all decisions affecting their lives. Based on this approach UNHCR promotes active refugee participation in all aspects of the UNHCR programme cycle builds protection strategies and solutions in partnership with them and supports the community's own goals also through better communication with communities. UNHCR staff perform a variety of tasks country-wide including: attending key phases of disembarkation procedures providing new arrivals with information on international protection and other relevant procedures through leaflets and group information sessions and supporting the authorities in identifying persons with specific needs; monitoring land border procedures and their potential impact on access to international protection focusing in particular on people with specific needs; conducting visits to reception facilities across the country liaising with relevant authorities to ensure that safe dignified accommodation conditions are provided; working with authorities and partners to identify persons with additional protection needs such as UASC survivors of GBV and other persons at risk so that they can be promptly referred for follow-up and appropriate services; and providing support to the National Commission for the Right to Asylum including on the reform of the RSD procedure. UNHCR also seeks to help refugees thrive in Italy and fully contribute to the economic cultural and social life of the country through support to the implementation of the Government's national integration plan provision of information and counselling on rights entitlements and obligations engagement with the private sector to promote refugees' employment and by working with Italian universities to promote access to higher education to refugees through scholarships and tutoring programmes.

There are some limited facilities to access Duty Free privileges. Buying a new vehicle is a lengthy process while buying second hand is even more complex. The public transport system is relatively reliable and most colleagues have elected to reside in the office neighborhood. A valid driving license issued by a European Union/European Economic Area (EU/EEA) member state is automatically accepted in all other member states. People with EU/EEA-issued driver's license who take up residence in Italy are not required to exchange it for an Italian license.

Most of the territory of Turkmenistan the second largest country of Central Asia stretching over 491210 km2 is covered by Karakum desert. Turkmenistan is heavily impacted by climate change the impact of which include: (i) steady increase in average temperature of 1.40C; increasing occurrences of daily temperatures of over 40oC occasionally surpassing 500C in Karakum desert and accentuation of differences between hottest and coldest temperatures (ii) variability in monthly precipitation has been growing and the amount of precipitation during recent years has slightly increased particularly in spring months with the lowest precipitation values being observed in summer (iii) an increase in the average regional evaporation rates of 48% by 2050 (iv) an increase in the frequency and intensity of drought and flood spells; (v) 10-15% reduction in flow rates for the Amu Darya river; and a 30% reduction in other rivers and tributaries’ discharge. Drought represents the biggest threat increasing the pace of desertification. During dry years the pasture productivity and harvests are reduced by 50-70 % significantly affecting food security. The drying up of the Aral Sea is one of the ecological disasters for the CA region. Most of the water basin has already evaporated and intense wind erosion is occurring from the drying sea zone to the adjacent irrigated areas thereby leading huge economic losses in agriculture public health and environmental stability. The project area (Dashoguz velayat and Darganata etrap in Lebap velayat) is most affected by the negative effects of the Aral Sea which has been devastated over the past few decades by poor water management and agricultural practices and is currently one of the most degraded landscapes in the country.

Learn more about our exciting work http//www.clintonhealthaccess.org Project Background Launched in September 2021 the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) seeks to power India’s quest for Universal Health Coverage by creating the interoperability required for digital health technologies and platforms to ‘speak’ seamlessly to each other thereby making healthcare interventions more affordable and accessible for all Indian citizens. Central to ABDM is the principle of consent and the concept of a health account (Ayushman Bharat Health Account or ABHA). An Indian Citizen can create an ABHA and link their personal health and / or medical records to this account. Using the ABDM’s Consent Manager functionality they can then share their records with any other system that is ABDM-enabled. For instance if they have been referred to a specialist for a consultation they may provide them with access to diagnostic and other records that provide the specialist a comprehensive view of their medical history. Similarly at the registration desk of a hospital instead of waiting in a long queue a patient can simply scan a QR code and transfer basic details about themselves (attached to their ABHA) to the hospital’s registration system and receive a ‘token’. This ‘scan and share’ functionality has been deployed across 1904 facilities across the country and has already generated over 61 lakh tokens. It remains however just one example of the utility of ABDM. Many more such functionalities and use cases of that unlock the full potential of ABDM are on the anvil. There has already been tremendous progress in the adoption of ABDM * Over 440 million ABHA created * Over 290 million health records linked to ABHAs * Over 200000 health facilities registered and verified (on the Health Facilities Registry) * Over 200000 health professionals registered and verified (on the Healthcare Professionals Registry) * Over 100 partners have made their systems ABDM-enabled * (Refer https//dashboard.abdm.gov.in/abdm/ for more details.) The National Health Authority (NHA) an autonomous government institution the implementation of ABDM across the country and WJCF supports its ambitious vision to strengthen the roll-out and scale-up this transformative digital health initiative. We also provide support to the Madhya Pradesh State ABDM Office in driving adoption of ABDM. Our focus is on driving adoption of ABDM among healthcare providers especially private sector physicians. ABDM’s progression to date has been led largely by the government sector and increased adoption by the private sector will help unleash its full potential. A key constituency in the private sector are doctors who are not only the main ‘consumers’ of health and medical records (on the basis of which they make their diagnoses and prescribe care) but also the main ‘producers’ of these records. Position Summary WJCF is looking for an Associate to work closely with Madhya Pradesh State ABDM office in Bhopal to help drive adoption of ABDM among healthcare professionals in the state. The Associate will support the State ABDM Office in widening their engagement with healthcare professionals by leveraging various existing platforms such as medical conferences digital health events and such others and deepen the engagement with the healthcare professionals through implementation of ‘microsites’ in the state. This approach is predicated on regular in-person engagement with healthcare professionals in a limited geography. The objective is to introduce ABDM (and more broadly the value proposition of digitization) to healthcare professionals and facilitate their journeys to ABDM-enabled healthcare delivery. The microsite approach to adoption is important for the ABDM ecosystem in two main ways * By focusing on a specific geography and engaging deeply with an ecosystem of providers it helps catalyse demand for ABDM through a ‘flywheel’ effect. By developing a core of early adopters it aims to jump start word-of-mouth and demonstrative effects that will drive wider adoption. * As sites for learning and experimentation microsites deepen the ABDM ecosystem’s understanding of attitudes incentives and circumstances that can drive or hinder adoption of ABDM thereby helping to identify new use cases and sharpen its value proposition. WJCF is supporting the Madhya Pradesh state ABDM unit in launching and monitoring microsites in Bhopal and Sehore in line with the recently launched 100 Microsites scheme. As part of our ABDM adoption team the candidate will work closely with multiple stakeholders including the State ABDM unit state-and local-level authorities and professional bodies the on-ground field staff of interfacing agencies and most importantly healthcare professionals to strengthen and expand our microsites initiative. This role provides an opportunity to be at the heart of and directly influence the nascent and fast-moving digital health journey in India. While based out of the state ABDM unit’s offices the successful candidate will be supported by and work closely with our ABDM Adoption team based out of the NHA and WJCF’s Bhopal-based leadership team. * Build a working relationship with the State ABDM Office (SAO) Madhya Pradesh * Proactively identify area(s) of support including but not limited to (i) Capacity building (ii) IEC deployment in the state to drive ABDM adoption * Building key stakeholder relationship(s) with (i) ABDM-enabled IT solution providers (ii) Medical Associations and Councils (iii) State ABDM office MP and other(s) as required * Building useful tools and checklists for the interfacing agency to optimise the interfacing agency’s field team outreach (e.g. visit planner visit checklists FAQs reporting forms etc.) * Monitor the progress of the microsite(s) implemented in Madhya Pradesh and support the State ABDM office in documenting the learnings and reporting progress to National Health Authority * Regular problem solving and coaching the Analyst (ABDM MP) and interfacing agency in the state * Identification on-boarding and collaboration with ABDM-enabled IT solution providers * Supporting SAO to identify and participate in medical conferences workshops and CME sessions to convey benefits of becoming a part of the ABDM ecosystem * Engaging professional bodies and associations of healthcare professionals to leverage their existing communication channels (sessions newsletters magazines blogposts and such others) for spreading awareness about ABDM among their members * Exploring other innovative ways to reach out and engage healthcare professionals to enable them to participate in India’s digital health journey * Strengthening the capacity of the SAO by supporting them in on boarding a Program Management Unit (PMU) for ABDM implementation in the state * Master’s/Bachelor’s degree in management public health engineering digital health public policy or similar fields * Work experience of 5+ years in digital health management consulting public health public policy or allied areas * Proven performance in a fast-paced results driven environment * Excellent analytical (qualitative and quantitative) skills and communication (written and verbal) skills * High level of proficiency in Microsoft Office particularly Excel PowerPoint and Word * Willingness to travel across states as required (up to 20% travel) * Ability to think strategically handle ambiguity and problem solve in a fast-paced limited-structure multicultural environment * Impeccable integrity * Humility and open-mindedness * Learning mentality * Tenacity and resourcefulness * Willingness to speak up and then to commit once a decision is taken * Fluency in English Preferred * Experience working in a multi-stakeholder environment and / or government stakeholder management experience would be a strong positive * Experience in e-governance or digital health programs in India * Ability to navigate complex processes and influence decision-making in a professional and collaborative manner * Fluency in Hindi and additional Indian language #jobreference2 #region2
