PATH is a global organization that works to accelerate health equity by bringing together public institutions, businesses, social enterprises, and investors to solve the world’s most pressing health challenges. With expertise in science, health, economics, technology, advocacy, and dozens of other specialties, scales solutions—including vaccines, drugs, devices, diagnostics, and innovative approaches to strengthening health systems worldwide.
PATH is leading a consortium of partners in the implementation of the recently awarded USAID PAMO Plus. This is a 5-year Cooperative Agreement. In partnership with Jhpiego and the Zambia Centre for Communication Programs (ZCCP), guided by the National Malaria Elimination Strategic Plan and in collaboration with the End Malaria Council (EMC), PAMO Plus will build on the PATH learning and momentum achieved as lead for PMI’s Program for Advancement of Malaria Outcomes (PAMO). In line with PMI’s strategy, the PAMO Plus will assist the GRZ to accelerate progress toward its goal of eliminating local malaria infection and disease in Zambia by achieving high levels of effective coverage with high-quality malaria control interventions, leading to major reductions in malaria prevalence, incidence, severe disease, and death in four focal high-burden provinces: Luapula, Northern, Muchinga, and Eastern.
PATH is currently recruiting a COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT & MOBILIZATION OFFICERS (CEMO) who will be responsible for providing day to day community and district level specialized technical guidance on proven approaches for community engagement with the ultimate goal of increasing uptake and utilization of malaria services including the ProAct study. In coordination with the Social Behavior Change Specialist, S/he will have primary responsibility for oversight of community intervention activities in this area. S/he will also work with other program managers to provide general support the Provincial and District Health staff, as requested.
