| Overview of position |
Integrated Management of Childhood Illnesses (IMNCI) is a strategy to prevent childhood illnesses through a process of classifying, assessing and treating the sick child based on all presented signs and symptoms without hi-tech diagnostic equipment and the results of laboratory tests. This is based on the assumption that commonly children present with several medical conditions and illness at the same time rather than one when they are ill.
The basic objective of this consultancy is to promote IMNCI strategy to prevent childhood diseases, disability and death. The initial focus is on undertaking the key interventions in selected health facilities (34 in 26 municipalities).
UNICEF is implementing a comprehensive package of interventions in selected health facilities focused on maternal, newborn and childhood care.

Hence, UNICEF Libya is seeking the services of a National consultant for IMNCI for a period of three months (extendable) with a start date of 21st September 2020.
