STATEMENT OF DUTIES BACKGROUND: USAID/Mozambique manages one of USAID's largest country programs in sub-Saharan Africa. Its employees are organized into offices implementing programs in health, democracy and governance, agriculture, environment, economic growth, and education. Mozambique is considered important to U.S. foreign policy interests on the continent.� In addition to USAID, United States Government (USG) programs in Mozambique are supported across multiple agencies, including Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Department of State, Department of Defense, and Peace Corps.� The scope and innovation of USAID and USG�s program in Mozambique attracts numerous VIP visits and attention, therefore, USAID programs are subject to intense scrutiny by various elements of the US government, by Mozambican government ministries, and by diverse civil society constituencies. USAID/Mozambique�s IHO, with approximately 80 staff, manages one of USAID�S largest health country programs in sub-Saharan Africa, with a total FY 2023 operating budget of approximately $330 million. A key objective of the U.S. Mission in Mozambique is to support the Government of Mozambique (GOM)� in achieving Millennium Development Goals and other health objectives by reducing maternal and child mortality through an integrated package of primary health care services, supporting voluntary use of family planning, supporting treatment expansion for and prevention of HIV/AIDS, improving access to TB treatment services, preventing and treating malaria, and supporting the Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA). To respond to these numerous objectives, USAID/Mozambique�s IHO receives and manages funding for multiple presidential initiatives and priority health interventions, including the President�s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), the President�s Malaria Initiative (PMI), and Feed the Future. Mozambique is a Global Health Initiative Country and focuses on ending preventable child and maternal death (EPCMD) and health systems strengthening.� Improving the collection, analysis, reporting, and use of data linked to the various health interventions is integral to the USG and Mozambique�s Ministry of Health (MOH) in achieving these objectives.
