About The Project
Looking for a rewarding way to share your monitoring and evaluation (M&E) skills with others? Liberian health workers are looking to strengthen their data collection and analysis skills.
Liberia continues to face significant public health challenges rooted in its history of prolonged civil conflict and a devastating Ebola epidemic. These events severely weakened the country’s healthcare infrastructure, limiting access to quality care and contributing to poor maternal and child health outcomes and frequent outbreaks of infectious diseases, such as Mpox and Lassa fever. Despite ongoing recovery efforts, gaps remain in health system accountability, data management, and program evaluation—especially at the county level.
As a Monitoring and Evaluation Specialist, you will work alongside county health teams to implement robust monitoring and evaluation systems. Together, you will help ensure health interventions are effective, transparent, and responsive to community needs. By strengthening local capacity in data collection, analysis, and reporting, you will contribute to improved health services and outcomes for vulnerable populations. Your work will leave a lasting impact by empowering local teams to make informed decisions and drive sustainable health improvements across Liberia.
Activities
How you and the community will make an impact together:
Support M&E frameworks implementation that aligns with national policies.
Conduct data collection, analysis, and reporting.
Encourage community participation in M&E activities to foster ownership.
Facilitate training sessions for the effective use of the health information system.
Train health workers and district health teams on M&E methodologies.
Foster partnerships with other non-governmental organizations to share best practices.
You may also work on additional projects that meet the community’s interests and priorities, such as youth engagement and leadership development, and hygiene promotion clubs.
