National Consultant – Information Technology and Digital Systems Specialist for HIV
WHO - World Health Organization|WP_FJI Fiji## Schedule:Full-timeIMPORTANT NOTICE: Please note that the deadline for receipt of applications indicated above reflects your personal device's system settings...## Purpose of consultancyThis consultancy will support the HIV response in Fiji related to the area of information technology and digital systems and using data for impact.## BackgroundThe HIV situation in Fiji has changed in recent years, with more infections linked to new patterns of risk. Injecting drug use, especially with methamphetamine, has become more common, and many people who inject drugs share needles because there are no harm reduction services such as needle and syringe programmes or opioid substitution therapy. This gap has created a fast route of transmission in some communities. At the same time, many people are still being diagnosed late, testing does not always reach those most at risk, and stigma continues to discourage early care.The national response from the Fijian government is focusing on broadening testing options, improving access to treatment, and strengthening surveillance and laboratory systems. Community groups now play a larger role in reaching people who do not access formal health services. There is also continued work to better connect HIV, STI, Hepatitis and TB services so that people can get what they need in one place and stay in care.Digital systems and information technology are increasingly central to effective HIV surveillance, especially when an epidemic is expanding and timely data is needed to guide the response. Well-maintained digital platforms enable timely case reporting, tracking of testing and treatment outcomes, smooth data flow between clinics and laboratories, and early identification of gaps across the cascade of care. Reliable databases also support modelling, forecasting and resource planning as programmes scale up. In an emerging HIV epidemic, investing in strong IT systems, secure data architecture, user training and ongoing system maintenance ensures that information is complete, consistent and actionable, allowing health authorities to target interventions quickly and effectively.## DeliverablesThe specific outputs under this consultancy include:Output 1: Assessment of Existing HIV, STIs, Hepatitis and TB Information Systems- Deliverable 1.1: Mapping of current HIV, STIs, Hepatitis and TB data systems, platforms, and reporting tools across national, divisional and facility levels. - Deliverable 1.2: Analysis of data flows, interoperability issues, timeliness and completeness of reporting. - Deliverable 1.3: Gap assessment report highlighting system weaknesses, user challenges and priority areas for improvement.
