Community Case Management Manager - South Sudan

The IRC began its health work in South Sudan in 1989, training health workers and making health services available to remote, underserved communities. With the signing of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement, the IRC began supporting the Government of South Sudan’s efforts to establish health systems. Today, the IRC continues to work closely with the newly formed Republic of South Sudan in strengthening those systems. However, a lack of resources, widespread poverty, and low literacy levels continue to challenge efforts to meet the basic needs of the South Sudanese people. It is estimated that only 25% of the population has access to any kind of health care services, 80% of which are provided by humanitarian and other non-governmental organizations.

The overall goal of this project is to decrease child morbidity and mortality in Aweil East and North Counties of Northern Bahr el Ghazal State and Panyijar County of Unity State by training and equipping Community-Based Distributors (CBDs) to treat children under 5 for malaria, diarrhea, and pneumonia. Treating children in the first 24 hours of illness is key to ensuring their survival. By making treatment available close to home, the IRC has been able to significantly reduce child mortality in the communities we serve.

The Manager will ensure quality program implementation, in accordance with national and international standards.
