It is critical to step up Risk Communication and Community Engagement
(RCCE) interventions to ensure preparedness to reach and engage with
communities with prevention information and facilitate adoption of
healthy behaviours. The geographic focus of the assignment will cover
selected regions identified by Ministry of Health Community Development
Gender Elderly and Children (MoHCDGEC) on mainland, the Ministry of
Health in Zanzibar, and World Health Organization (WHO) as the most at
risk of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) importation from the neighbouring
countries. Specifically, the assignment will cover Songwe (districts:
Mbozi, Momba, Tunduma and Ileje), and Mbeya (districts: Kyela, Mbeya DC
and Mbeya city) as well as Zanzibar (Unguja – West B and Urban
districts) and other districts as required. There is an increased risk
of EVD importation to Zanzibar due to high level of travel for trade and
tourism, although Zanzibar is far from the current outbreak location in
DRC. UNICEF Tanzania will deploy C4D officers to support preparedness
activities in risk communication and community engagement in the
specified locations.
