We are looking for a consultant to carry out a diagnosis on the nutritional surveillance and assistance flows, from the identification of malnutrition in the community to its integration into the post-recovery community.
The Yanomami territory is located in remote areas in the Northern region of Brazil, with exclusive access by air or river. Health care for the Yanomami people is under the responsibility of the Yanomami Special Indigenous Health District (DSEI-Y), linked to the Secretariat of Indigenous Health of the Ministry of Health (SESAI-MS).
