Preamble:
UNICEF intends to deliver nutritional messages through the Care Group model that was used by CRS in its previous programs as the model has been identified as the main community-based platform for which the convergence of multisector nutrition interventions is possible. The model aims at promoting the adoption of positive health and nutrition practices and consumption of nutrient dense, protein rich foods, with a focus on preventing malnutrition at household level. UNICEF therefore intends to incorporate this model in the implementation of SUN II /MCDP2 and so has contracted CRS to assist in taking up the role of providing technical and financial support to Government, through districts workplans.
CRS is looking for applicants to fill in the position of Master Trainers for the Care Group Model under the SSM UNICEF supported project to be based in Lusaka.
Job Summary:
