    Enrich Mnp Programme Coordinator

    Job Details
    The consortium is led by World Vision and includes Harvest Plus, the University of Toronto, Canadian Society for International Health and the Hospital for Sick Children. The project will be implemented over a four-year period, concluding in 2020.
    The Enhancing Nutrition Services to Improve Maternal and Child Health (ENRICH) project aims to improve the health and nutrition status of mothers, newborns and children in select regions of Bangladesh, Kenya, Myanmar, Pakistan and Tanzania.
    The project seeks to achieve this goal through strengthening of health systems with an emphasis on community outreach services, improving nutrition of pregnant women, infants and young children during the first 1000 days from conception to 24 months of age, and ensuring accountability of results at all levels.
    ENRICH takes a comprehensive approach to:

    improve delivery of essential health services, including basic nutrition and nutrition-sensitive services to mothers, pregnant women, newborns and children under two;
    Increase production, consumption and utilization of nutritious foods and micronutrient supplements; and
    strengthen gender-responsive governance, policy and public engagement in maternal, newborn, and child health in Canada and target countries.

    The project is expected to increase the access to basic nutrition and health services to a total of 2.09 million people, including 835,000 women and 740,000 children.
    In Elgeyo Marakwet County, the project is expected to directly benefit 288,209 people, of which 80 per cent are children under two years and pregnant and lactating women.
    Key NI interventions areas are:

    Health system strengthening through capacity development of healthcare workers in delivery of nutrition services, supply chain management, data collection, analysis and use of nutrition data and information.
    Behaviour Change Interventions (BCI) informed by formative research in the project area to develop a context-specific behaviour change strategy for improving the nutrition status of women and children.
    Food fortification to increase the demand and consumption of adequately fortified foods as well as promote optimal feeding practices of infants and young children.
    Policy engagement and advocacy to support the creation of an enabling environment for implementation of the ENRICH project and to use project evidence to advocate with key decision-makers in government for the scale-up of nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive interventions.

    MNP programme implementation in Kenya
    Research shows that the use of Micronutrient Powder (MNP) has been associated with reducing anemia and iron deficiency for children under two years of age [De-Regil LM, Suchdev PS, Vist GE, Walleser S, and Peña-Rosas JP (2011). Home fortification of foods with multiple micronutrient powders for health and nutrition in children under two years of age. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2011, CD008959-10.1002/14651858.CD008959.pub2.].
    A review of previously conducted MNP interventions has identified some crucial steps to successful implementation, including:

    careful consideration of distribution platforms and behaviour change interventions;
    selection of reliable suppliers to ensure continuity of the commodity;
    establishing partnership with actors with credibility in targeted communities;
    clearly defined indicators for measuring success related to, for example, coverage; and
    well trained frontline health workers in counselling in IYCN and use of MNP
