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, PATH develops and scales
solutions—including vaccines, drugs, devices, diagnostics, and
innovative approaches to strengthening health systems worldwide.
International development and global health represent one of the
greatest opportunities for the impact of digital technologies on a
global scale. New technologies, approaches and tools are emerging daily,
unfortunately into a fragmented and immature digital health market
landscape that currently limits their promise to transform country
health systems and accelerate and amplify progress towards national and
global health goals.
The
Project Director will be responsible for project leadership and
implementation. He/she will represent PATH and provide leadership to
project partners, inter-agency agreement partners, and among CDC-funded
projects. The Project Director will also lead collaboration and network
development activities with national partners. He/she will ensure that
the project achieves results—including project deliverables and
targets—in an effective and compliant manner.
