Technical and Administrative Services for the Health and Environmental Programme (Албания - Тендер #37776045)

BACKGROUND

The Department of Health in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) Philippines has been implementing the Country Cooperation Strategy (2017-2022) where Health and Environment (HAE) programme is one of the strategic priorities under Protect Health. HAE includes water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), climate change, chemical safety, food safety, occupational health, and air quality.

To support specific programme activities, there are ongoing projects that need technical and administrative assistance, such as the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Australia assisted (DFAT-assisted) Drinking Water Quality Surveillance Project; Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), Korea Development Cooperation Agency (KDCA) and DFAT-assisted WASH in Health Care Facilities (HCF) Project.

In addition, there are national and global advocacy campaigns that need to be supported, such as World Environmental Health Day, Global Handwashing Day and World Toilet Day to advance WHO advocacy on the importance of HAE in preventing environment-related diseases and in contributing to relevant Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

To ensure proper technical and administrative assistance to HAE programme, there is a need for the contractual services of an Agreement for the Performance of Work (APW) to deliver the required outputs of the programme.
