Organizational Context:
In 2024, according to the Global Task Force for Cholera Control (
GTFCC) around 55 countries are still affected by cholera.
The GTFCC is a partnership of more than 50 institutions, including NGOs, academic institutions, and UN agencies, with a secretariat hosted by the World Health Organization (WHO).
In 2017, the GTFCC launched the
Global Roadmap to 2030 which aims to eliminate cholera in 20 countries and reduce the number of cholera deaths reported every year by 90%.
Recognising the importance of research for effective management and control of cholera, the
GTFCC Research Agenda was launched in 2021, to define the most pressing research priorities for achieving the goals of the global roadmap.
The research agenda was developed using a consultative approach involving 138 experts in 33 countries, who were mostly implementing partners and researchers working in the areas of epidemiology, OCV, and WASH.
- optimizing the delivery of existing interventions to maximize impact on populations in need
- developing new interventions/strategies
The priorities were categorised by five technical pillars (OCV, WASH, Surveillance, Case Management, and Community Engagement as a cross-cutting theme) and reviewed by the GTFCC technical working groups for each pillar.
The outputs provided in the Research Agenda are:
- Top 20 research priorities for the Cholera Roadmap
- Top 5 research priorities for each technical pillar (OCV, WASH, Surveillance, Case Management)
- Top 20 research priorities for respondents from choleraendemic countries
GTFCC Research Agenda.
The GTFCC would like to review progress against the research priorities outlined in the agenda, as well as reporting wider research progress for each of the GTFCC technical pillars.
This data will inform the next steps for the GTFCC research agenda, which may include advocacy around the existing agenda, updating the research agenda for to align with current context and new priorities, and resource mobilisation efforts for cholera research.
Job Purpose:
The GTFCC Country Support Platform
In 2019, Cholera-affected countries called for additional technical support from the GTFCC in the development and implementation of their multisectoral National Cholera Plans for control or elimination (
NCPs).
In response to countries' needs, the GTFCC established a Country Support Platform (
CSP) that supports efforts - primarily at national level - to control and eliminate cholera.
IFRC).
The CSP is supporting cholera-affected countries by working towards the following outcomes:
- Cholera-affected countries have an NCP and a multisectoral coordination mechanism to align government, national actors, GTFCC partners and key stakeholders towards a shared strategy.
- The choleraaffected countries have mobilized resources toward the funding needs identified in their NCPs.
- The choleraaffected countries receive multisectoral technical support and capacity building for the formulation and the implementation of their NCPs.
The consultant will work within the CSP team and should consider how the agenda and priorities have been utilised by countries as part of their NCPs and ongoing cholera responses.
Alignment to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) objectives and strategy
Strategic Priority 3:
Growing gaps in health and well-being
IFRC's Strategy 2030:
The IFRC supports National Societies to work with vulnerable communities to achieve better health and reduced vulnerabilities as well as to improve water and sanitation conditions in chronic and acute contexts during emergencies.
The IFRC was appointed in 2020 to be the operational arm of the GTFCC for the CSP project.This positions the IFRC and the network at the heart of global and regional partnerships for inter-agency coordination for eventual cholera elimination.
Global Flagship Initiatives:
Reduce cholera related deaths by 50%.
Cholera continues to threaten the lives of millions of people and yet with the provision of safe water and sanitation so many lives can be saved.
The IFRC's Global Water and Sanitation Initiative (including OneWASH) will be expanded to ensure equitable, susta-
