Senior Training Specialist, UNICEF Global Polio Eradication Program, Pakistan -
2012-2013
Designed, planned, budgeted, and wrote induction training for 1, 100 UNICEF COMNet
(Communications Network) polio eradication senior frontline staff. This training included
content in Communications for Development (C4D), Interpersonal Communications,
Leadership and Management, and Data Collection and Reporting for Monitoring and
Evaluation. Using a training of trainers approach, I followed trainers into the field for
purposes of quality control and assessing learning outcomes. During these frequent
field visits, I interacted closely with provincial and district government health workers,
UNICEF and WHO field staff, and vaccinator trainings. After these trainings I
accompanied vaccinator teams during every campaign in order to better inform myself
of the challenges they face and how training could improve their performance. With this
goal in mind, I wrote the contract for a research project that would assess training needs
for government, UNICEF, and WHO staff where polio reservoirs threatened continued
outbreaks. At the request of WHO, I collaborated with multiple experts and wrote the
new WHO vaccinator training materials, including trainer’s guides and trainee learning
materials. I worked with CDC, WHO, UNICEF, and the Balochistan provincial
government to provide polio eradication training for newly-appointed Medical Officers
(provincial public health doctors). I devised and maintained a comprehensive training
calendar as a planning, monitoring, and reporting tool. I compiled an extensive online
library of polio training and other key documents from India, Nigeria, Liberia, and
Pakistan. My supervisory roles comprised oversight of the implementing partner who
managed the COMNeT staff and of our STOP volunteers to ensure coordinated field
activities.
