1. Background

Eswatini remains committed to reducing maternal, newborn and child morbidity and mortality as part of its efforts to achieve Universal Health Coverage (UHC), the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and national health sector priorities. However, preventable maternal and perinatal deaths continue to occur due to challenges related to quality of care, delays in identification and management of complications, inadequate referral systems, and limited use of mortality surveillance data to drive corrective actions.

Maternal and Perinatal Death Surveillance and Response (MPDSR) is a critical quality improvement approach that enables countries to identify, review and respond to maternal and perinatal deaths and near misses in order to prevent future deaths and adverse outcomes. In Eswatini, implementation of MPDSR has been guided by the National MPDSR Guideline developed in 2015. While progress has been made in establishing review processes, the current system requires strengthening to align with updated global recommendations, quality of care standards, and emerging digital health solutions. There is also a need to strengthen governance and accountability through functional MPDSR committees at national, regional and facility levels and to institutionalize quality improvement processes that ensure implementation of recommendations arising from death reviews.

At the same time, reducing maternal and newborn mortality depends on timely access to high-quality Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care (EmONC) services. The country requires updated evidence on the availability, readiness and functionality of EmONC services to guide service optimization and investment decisions. Strengthening referral pathways and establishing an optimized national EmONC network are essential to ensuring timely access to lifesaving care, particularly for women and newborns experiencing obstetric and neonatal emergencies.

Despite significant progress in child survival interventions, routine immunization coverage in Eswatini remains below the national target of 80% for several antigens. Suboptimal vaccination coverage leaves children vulnerable to vaccine-preventable diseases and increases the risk of outbreaks that can reverse gains in child health and survival. Challenges contributing to low coverage include missed opportunities for vaccination, gaps in service delivery, inadequate defaulter tracking, supply chain constraints, vaccine hesitancy in some communities, and inequities in access to immunization services, particularly among hard-to-reach populations. Strengthening routine immunization and Vaccine preventable Disease surveillance is therefore critical to reducing child morbidity and mortality and ensuring that every child receives life-saving vaccines according to the national immunization schedule.

Rationale

To support these priorities, technical assistance from a qualified officer is required to provide specialized expertise in strengthening Maternal and Perinatal Death Surveillance and Response (MPDSR), improving Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care (EmONC) referral systems, and enhancing routine immunization programme performance. The Officer will work closely with the Ministry of Health and relevant stakeholders to review and update the MPDSR guideline, support the design and institutionalization of the electronic MPDSR system, strengthen the national EmONC referral network and database, and assess and address barriers to routine immunization coverage. This support will contribute to strengthening the country's capacity to generate and use high-quality maternal, newborn and child health data, improve access to lifesaving maternal and newborn care, increase immunization coverage, enhance accountability, and ultimately accelerate efforts to reduce preventable maternal, newborn and child morbidity and mortality.

2. Deliverables

Overall objectives of the Special Service Agreement (SSA) are to:

· To strengthen the national Maternal and Perinatal Death Surveillance and Response (MPDSR) system through the review and updating of the National MPDSR Guideline, establishment and capacity building of MPDSR committees at all levels, integration of quality improvement approaches, and institutionalization of a functional electronic MPDSR (eMPDSR) platform for surveillance, response monitoring and accountability.

To strengthen Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care (EmONC) and referral systems through assessment of service availability and readiness, optimization of a national EmONC network, mapping of referral pathways, and development of evidence-based maternal and newborn health referral guidance.

To strengthen routine immunization service delivery and programme performance through assessment of immunization coverage and equity gaps, identification of service delivery and community barriers, strengthening monitoring and data use systems, improving defaulter tracking mechanisms, and development of evidence-based strategies to increase routine immunization coverage towards and beyond the national target of 80%.

Scope of work

PURPOSE OF THE POSITION: Provide technical assistance to the Ministry of Health and key stakeholders to conduct South Sudan's National Health Accounts for the past three financial years: 2023/2024, 2024/25, and 2025/2026. BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: South Sudan's health system continues to face significant financing challenges characterized by low domestic public investment, heavy dependence on external donor funding, weak risk-pooling mechanisms, fragmented financing arrangements, and high levels of out-of-pocket expenditure (34% in 2022). Government expenditure on health (2% in 2025) remains well below regional and global commitments, while development partners finance a substantial proportion of health services delivery. These financing patterns raise concerns regarding sustainability, efficiency, equity, and resilience of the health system. The country is currently implementing the Health Sector Strategic Plan (2023-2027) and pursuing Universal Health Coverage (UHC), Primary Health Care (PHC) strengthening, and sustainable health financing reforms.

Comprehensive expenditure tracking is required to inform government budgeting, resource mobilization, donor coordination, strategic purchasing, health financing reforms, and monitoring of UHC progress.
