Purpose of the Consultancy The consultant will support the WHO Country Office to strengthen donor visibility, health communications, and knowledge management, as well as enhance the CO’s capacity for translation and content adaptation. Background Strategic communication for public health is a high priority in the Western Pacific, as recognized in the regional vision, Weaving Health for Families, Communities and Societies in the Western Pacific Region (2025-2029): Working together to improve health, well-being, and save lives. The vision’s “weaving” analogy symbolizes collaboration between WHO, governments, and partners to improve health and well-being in the Region. It consists of five vertical strands of action led by governments, and three horizontal strands of action driven by WHO. The inclusion of communications as one of the three horizontal strands highlights the critical role communication plays in achieving key health outcomes, from expanding access to health services, increasing vaccination rates, reducing stigma around mental health, and addressing the risk factors leading to communicable diseases, among others. Different types of communication mechanisms, such as risk communications, community engagement, community protection, and social and behaviour change are key pillars in the Communication for Health (C4H) approach that support the strengthening of these capacities. In Cambodia, the Cambodia-WHO Country Cooperation Strategy 2024-2028 aligns with this regional vision by emphasizing integrated, sustainable, and multi-sectoral solutions to advance universal health coverage and strengthen health systems. Strategic communication serves as a vital enabler across all three strategic priorities: advancing quality integrated systems reoriented toward primary health care; improving the health of individuals, families, and communities through action within and beyond the health sector; and strengthening health security systems to increase public health emergency preparedness, response, and resilience. Effective communication ensures that health interventions reach diverse stakeholders, mobilizes communities for health action, enhances visibility of WHO’s partnerships and technical support, and builds public trust in health systems.

Background Le changement climatique constitue aujourd’hui l’une des principales menaces pour la santé publique à l’échelle mondiale. Les modifications des températures, les perturbations des régimes pluviométriques, les événements climatiques extrêmes ainsi que la dégradation des ressources naturelles influencent directement et indirectement l’état sanitaire des populations, compromettant leur bien-être et accentuant les fragilités sanitaires existantes. Au Burkina Faso, le changement climatique représente une menace grandissante pour la santé publique en raison des chocs thermiques extrêmes, de l’irrégularité des précipitations et de la fréquence accrue des événements climatiques extrêmes tels que les sécheresses et les inondations. Ces perturbations favorisent l’expansion des maladies sensibles au climat, notamment le paludisme ou la dengue, les maladies diarrhéiques et les infections respiratoires aiguës, tout en aggravant l’insécurité alimentaire et la malnutrition. Conscient de ces enjeux, le Burkina Faso a adhéré aux initiatives mondiales visant à renforcer la résilience du secteur de la santé face aux changements climatiques.
