- Consultancy Opportunity! with World Health Organization (WHO)
Landscape analysis for the Workforce Development Operational Tool (Tripartite Zoonoses Guide Toolkit), closing date is in May 18, 2022! Purpose of consultancy To contribute to the development of the Workforce Development Operational Tool (WFD OT), an operational tool in the Tripartite Zoonoses Guide (TZG) Toolkit, through the completion of a stakeholder analysis and development of a comprehensive landscape analysis report. Background The TZG toolkit is comprised of critical OTs developed based on the principles and best practices outlined in the TZG. The OTs are step-wise guides, allowing countries to strengthen their zoonotic disease preparedness and response using a multisectoral, One Health, approach. To date, three OTs have been developed, including the Joint Risk Assessment OT, the Multisectoral Coordination Mechanism OT, and the Surveillance and Information Sharing OT. Beginning in July 2022, the Tripartite will begin the development of two additional tools, including the WHO-led WFD OT and the FAO-led Monitoring and Evaluation OT. For WHO, the first step in the OT development process is to hire a technical consultant to conduct a stakeholder mapping and develop a comprehensive landscape analysis. A final landscape analysis report will ensure that the WFD OT is developed strategically to align with ongoing capacity strengthening efforts of the Tripartite+ and external partners, as well as fill a strategic gaps/needs for WHO regions and countries. This initiative will be led by WHO HSP/CCI/HAI working in close collaboration with OIE and FAO. Deliverables Deliverable: Comprehensive landscape analysis report which details available workforce development capacity strengthening tools, approaches, and globally available training programs. Task 1: Comprehensive stakeholder analysis completed and used to inform data collection and analysis. Expected on 15 July 2022. Task 2: Data collection through document review and key informant interviews, followed by data analysis and drafting the landscape report, including gaps and key recommendations for the development of the WFD OT. Expected on 15 September 2022. Task 3: Draft report shared with final comments/ revisions integrated. Expected on 15 October 2022. Task 4: Final landscape report delivered and validated. Expected on 31 October 2022.

The training was organized under the “Promoting One Health Education in Border School”, a component of an umbrella project funded by Chevron and in partnership with Southeast Asia One Health University Network (SEAOHUN). The two-year project entitled “Strengthening One Health Education in Southeast Asia”, covers One Health education of school-aged children and their teachers, university students and their professors, and practicing health professionals solving complex health issues in their communities.

- Press Release: Collaborating to Strengthen One Health Education in Southeast Asia
In January 2021, Chevron partnered with Southeast Asia One Health University Network (SEAOHUN) and other public agencies to increase health literacy and an understanding of the One Health approach, with the launch of a two-year program called, “Strengthening One Health Education in Southeast Asia”. Teams of 4 multidisciplinary students from member Universities across Southeast Asia One Health University Network entered the 2021 SEAOHUN Students’ Regional Competition. Teams had to create an original video to communicate the risk of zoonotic diseases from three topics: gender and zoonotic diseases, underserved communities and their interactions with animals, wildlife, and zoonotic diseases. The winner, based on public votes, was Malaysian team, Panthera Tigris (named after the scientific name for Tiger), from Malaysia One Health University Network (MyOHUN) member universities, Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia and Universiti Putra Malaysia. Instead of focusing on one zoonotic disease, Panthera Tigris decided to address the root issue of human illegal activity. The submission delved into the relationship between illegal logging and the role of bats in the ecosystem. The group, originally met through a MyOHUN event, said their objective was to reach the broader public using simple terms so that the video could be easily understood. “We hope that our video prompts young students to care about this important health issue.” said Panthera Tigris group member, Shasha Aqilah Sheikh Zulkifli. “SEAOHUN Students' Regional Competition fosters a network of young, multidisciplinary professionals to learn and apply One Health concept. They achieve this through crafting messages to increase knowledge of the interdependencies among humans, animals, and their shared environment, and stimulating good practices in communities on how to make our world safer from infectious disease threats.” commented Dr Vipat Kuruchittham, SEAOHUN Executive Director. Kurt Glaubitz, General Manager, Corporate Affairs, Chevron Asia Pacific, said “We are proud to support SEAOHUN’s efforts to train the next generation of One Health professionals to better prepare Southeast Asian nations to combat infectious disease outbreaks.” About SEAOHUN One Health program The broader two-year program covers One Health education for school children and their teachers, university students and their professors, as well as healthcare professionals who are solving complex issues in their communities. “One Health” is an integrative effort of multiple disciplines —working at the local, regional, national, and global levels—to attain optimal health for people, animals, and their shared environment. The objective of this program is to promote the ‘One Health’ concept among students, school officials and teachers in Thai border schools, support expansion of SEAOHUN programs in the Philippines, create a regional student program, and promote the One Health success story of the ‘Lawa model’, to make it widely accessible. The program, which runs through December 2022, aims to improve public health literacy in children to lay the foundation for effective public responses to infectious disease threats in the future, foster One Health University Networks and develop One Health leaders in Southeast Asia and train health professionals from all member countries to apply the integrative One Health approach with active community engagement. SEAOHUN member countries include Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam. The program plans to train 50 primary school teachers to incorporate One Health into their teaching curricula, provide One Health education to 1000 primary school children, engage 200 university students in regional student activities and provide One Health training to 230 in-service professionals.
