(For more information, visit www.impactsante.org and contact us at the following address: contact@impactsante.org). Impact Santé Afrique (ISA) coordinates the global platform of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) for the elimination of malaria (CS4ME).

Impact Santé Afrique (ISA) implements the “Gender Equality Fund” project, which aims to work with communities to design, deliver, advocate for and influence gender-transformative and gender affirming approaches to health. One of the objectives of this project is to increase the representation and influence of trained adolescent girls and young women in key policies and decision-making platforms to promote women’s leadership and advocacy in the malaria response.

To achieve this, Impact Santé Afrique (ISA) plans to provide the target audience in the six countries where the project is implemented, as well as the entire CS4ME network, with a practical advocacy tool outlining actions to ensure that adolescent girls and young women are genuinely included in these decision-making bodies.

With this in mind, Impact Santé Afrique (ISA) is looking for a consultant to develop a mini advocacy guide with tailored messages to better integrate adolescent girls and young women into malaria control decision-making bodies.
