UNICEF Somalia 
 
Vacancy Announcement Ref: UNICEF-SOM/2014/052
 
Terms of Reference (TORs) for Technical Support for Strengthening of Services for the Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV Infection

Vacancy: PMTCT and EID Consultant
 
Category and Grade Level: P4/NOD  Equivalent 
 
Type of Contract: Special Service Agreement
 
Length of Contract: 60 days 
 
Organization Unit: HIV/AIDS Global Fund Unit–Health
 
Duty Stations: Nairobi with regular travel to Somalia
 
Date of Issue: 21 October 2014
 
Closing date of Application: 30 October 2014
 
Background: The dominant mode of HIV transmission to children is mother-to-child. Without preventive interventions, between 25-50% of the women living with HIV will pass the infection to their children; 5-10% during pregnancy, 10-20% during delivery and 10-20% during breastfeeding.  Ensuring that no baby is born with HIV is an essential step towards achieving an AIDS-free generation.

An intervention known as “prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV,” or PMTCT, provides drugs, counselling and psychological support to help mothers safeguard their infants against the virus. Ensuring PMTCT is provided to all women that need it is the most effective way of eliminating new HIV infections among children and keeping their mothers alive by 2015. 

Early diagnosis of HIV in infants provides a critical opportunity to strengthen follow-up of HIV-exposed children, assure early access to ARV treatment for infected children, provide reassuring information to families of uninfected children, aid evaluation of PMTCT programs, and increase capacity to use laboratory technology.
 
HIV prevalence among the 15-49 years in Somalia in 2012 was estimated to be low at 0.54%. Structured full package PMTCT programs commenced in late 2010 and early 2011 throughout the three zones. As of early 2013, 34 health facilities, mainly maternal/children health centres (8 in South Central, 6 in Puntland, and 20 in Somaliland), were providing a full package of PMTCT services.  

At the end of 2013, 1,728 mothers/babies were in need of PMTCT services, however only 57 (3.2%) received ARVs. 

As PMTCT coverage is low and not fully integrated in MNCH, the mother to child transmission rate is estimated at 34% in 2014. Overall HIV testing remains low and ANC attendance by pregnant mothers’ is estimated at 25% only. 

Moreover, despite there is no availability of rapid syphilis tests in MCH and HTC sites where a majority of the STI screening occurs, syphilis prevalence among ANC in Somalia is about 1%.
 
The newly endorsed Somali National Strategic Plan (NSP-2015-2019) for HIV/AIDS, aims to reduce HIV infections and HIV related mortality and morbidity among Somalis. The NSP, is focused on achieving two key results at the impact level to reduce new infections by 30% by 2019 and reduce mortality among men, women and children living with HIV by 30% by 2019. 

PMTCT is a priority objective articulated in the “Strategic Framework for the Somali AIDS Response (2015‐2019): Intensifying Integrated Prevention, Treatment, Care and Support for HIV towards Universal Access in Somali Populations” and one of the six core programme of the “Essential Package of Health Services (EPHS)”.
