Technical Assistant - Sudan Guinea Worm Eradication Program
Posted: Wed, 02/06/2010 - 3:13pm
The Carter Center Guinea Worm Eradication Program (GWEP) is looking for one short-term consultant for Guinea worm endemic areas in Southern Sudan. Consultants will help strengthen GWEP’s capacity to provide closer oversight regarding the implementation of surveillance, detection and containment of cases, and all other interventions in the highest endemic areas of Sudan.
The Carter Center, in partnership with Emory University, is committed to advancing human rights and alleviating unnecessary human suffering. Founded in 1982 by former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and former First Lady Rosalynn Carter, the Atlanta-based Center has helped to improve the quality of life for people in more than 70 countries. At The Carter Center, we work to build hope in some of the world's most impoverished and forgotten communities. Our health programs prevent the suffering of millions of people around the world from diseases often ignored by others. Many of the most severe afflictions are entirely preventable. Yet people living in developing nations die or are disabled because they do not have access to the services they need to treat their illness or avoid infection entirely. Every day our experts show people how they can take steps to transform their own lives. As Guinea worm is poised to become the next disease after smallpox to be wiped off the face of the Earth, eradication efforts are rejuvenating communities throughout Africa, enabling children to return to school and farmers to their fields. The Center spearheads the international campaign, which has reduced cases by more than 99 percent since 1986.
Often known as the "fiery serpent," Guinea worm disease (dracunculiasis) has existed since ancient times, but an international coalition led by The Carter Center is now close to eradicating it. With its access to world leaders, the Center is mobilizing government officials and garnering support for the Guinea worm disease eradication effort, while working at the village level to empower and educate communities to take simple measures to prevent the disease from recurring. "Hopefully Guinea worm will be the first parasitic disease ever eradicated. If and when that happens, we will have done it without a drug and without a vaccine to treat or prevent the disease. If we can do that, it will be one of the greatest achievements in public health." —Dr. Ernesto Ruiz-Tiben, Director, Guinea Worm Eradication Program
