Job Description

Purpose of the Consultancy

Strengthening midwifery is a priority for UNFPA, given its importance for maternal and newborn health and for universal access to sexual and reproductive health services. UNFPA supports countries in aligning midwifery with the global standards of the International Confederation of Midwives (ICM) and in translating assessment findings into practical change. In Jordan, midwifery involves several interlinked issues, including education and training, professional regulation and standards, workforce and service delivery, and working relationships between health professions. UNFPA is carrying out a national assessment of midwifery, combining in-depth analysis with structured consultation of stakeholders, to identify gaps and blind spots and to produce a roadmap of agreed priority actions. UNFPA therefore requires two national consultants to support stakeholder consultation, information collection and analysis.

Scope of Work / Key Tasks

The consultants will work as a team and will divide the tasks below in coordination with UNFPA

  • Conduct a situation analysis using the UNFPA data collection tools
  • Review national documents in relevance to the national standards (if any) and to ICM global standards (professional framework, regulation, essential competencies, pre-service education).
  • Lead the design and facilitation of three focus group discussions with stakeholders selected in coordination with JNC.
  • Conduct at least 5 key informant interviews with policymakers and other decision-makers.
  • Collect and consolidate information from the discussions and interviews, including gaps and blind spots.
  • Contribute to drafting the national analysis, the assessment plan and the roadmap.
  • Co-lead the collective validation workshop with the second national consultant.
  • Support the presentation of findings and the roadmap to the Jordanian Nursing Council (JNC), in support of its annual work.

Other relevant information or special conditions, if any:

The two consultants will work in close coordination, with each accountable to UNFPA for the deliverables specified in their respective Terms of Reference; neither consultant will supervise the other. They will exchange relevant data, tools and findings, subject to applicable confidentiality requirements, and jointly ensure consistency between the assessment and roadmap. Consultant 1 will lead the FGDs and KIIs and prepare the corresponding reports. Consultant 2 will contribute to the analysis and synthesis of findings, co-facilitate the validation workshop, document and incorporate stakeholder feedback into the assessment and roadmap, and jointly prepare the workshop report with Consultant 1.
