Community Concern of Orphans and Development Association (COCODA) Jobs 2024Economic Strengthening Officer (ESO) at COCODA Tanzania September 2024
JOB VACANCIES ANNOUNCEMENTCOCODA Tanzania is a non-governmental organisation established in 2000. COCODA’s establishment resulted from intensifying concern among community members in Tanzania over the surging number of orphans, mainly as a consequence of the swelling amount of people infected by HIV and dying from AIDS, the majority being adults leaving behind young children without parents.
This trend had a negative impact on social and economic development. Hence COCODA Tanzania envisioned offering an effective response to the situation by providing social health education to the local community on HIV/ AIDS, supporting orphans and most vulnerable children, providing vocational skills to youth and establishing small-scale income-generating groups for the community’s sustainable economy.
Kizazi Hodari Project is a five-year global effort to reach and sustain HIV epidemic control among pregnant and breastfeeding women, adolescents, infants, and children. The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) funded the project and implemented by Deloitte Tanzania. A resource partner’s global and local strategic resource partner network supports these core partners. Kizazi Hodari focuses on priority PEPFAR countries across Africa and the Caribbean.
The consortium works with USAID Missions, national governments, and existing response partners to identify gaps in HIV prevention and treatment programming among target populations. Using best practices and expertise along with innovations, the project is addressing critical gaps to meet country-specific epidemic control goals. Kizazi Hodari is USAID’s flagship initiative to address the needs of children, young people, and breastfeeding women affected by HIV.
This includes supporting local organizations and organisations that serve these populations and ultimately build their capability to receive direct U.S. government funding for programs at scale. The project leverages the full strength of its consortia and related private and public sector stakeholders to support countries in attaining and sustaining HIV epidemic control.
In Tanzania, starting in November 2022, Kizazi Hodari is receiving funds from USAID to support the Government of Tanzania (Got) to achieve its aim of controlling the HIV epidemic, with a particular focus on programs targeting orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) and adolescent girls and young women, through the DREAMS (Determined, Resilient, Empowered, AIDS-free, Mentored and Safe) program, in 54 councils across 15 regions in Tanzania.
Additionally, Kizazi Hodari aims to strengthen local organizations and the national- and community-level social welfare systems, structures, and workforce to support and sustain OVC to access HIV-inclusive services that support their health and well-being.
The Kizazi Hodari program has three Strategic Objectives:
- Increase the use of OVC platforms for pediatric HIV case finding, linkage to treatment and viral suppression
- Increase access to HIV prevention, violence prevention and response services for OVC and Youth
- Improve the socio-economic capacity of at-risk adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) and OVC caregivers
