1 ALIVE & THRIVE Request for Proposals (RFP) Issued on : June 12, 2018 Proposal due : June 19, 2018 (at 5 p.m. Hanoi, Vietnam) For : Review of pre-service education on essential nutrition actions for maternal, infant, and young child nutrition (MIYCN) for health professionals in the ASEAN region BACKGROUND: Alive & Thrive is an initiative that began in 2008 with the aim of saving lives, preventing illness, and ensuring healthy growth and development. Recognizing that good nutrition in the first 1,000 days, from conception to two years of age, is critical to enable all children to lead healthier and more productive lives, Alive & Thrive is scaling up improved infant and young child feeding and maternal nutrition through large-scale programs in several countries in Asia and Africa and through strategic technical support and the dissemination of innovations, tools, and lessons worldwide. Alive & Thrive is funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates foundation and the governments of Canada and Ireland. Now in its third phase, Alive & Thrive (A&T) Generation 2 ( ) will further cultivate the sustainability of projects and processes that generate positive maternal, infant, and young child nutrition (MIYCN) social and behavior change. Generation 2 builds on past achievements, draws upon new MICYN scientific knowledge, and adapts to the evolving nutrition landscape. UNICEF and World Bank are key partners across most Generation 2 country-specific activities. These strategic partnerships leverage national and regional coverage of high payoff MIYCN policies and interventions on a variety of platforms. In the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) region, A&T provides strategic technical assistance to seven countries (Viet Nam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Thailand, and the Philippines) to support policy and system reforms to create an enabling environment for breastfeeding. To achieve this, A&T works in close collaboration with UNICEF, Save the Children, and other partners in these countries to identify and execute an agreed upon work-plan that focuses primarily on regulating inappropriate marketing practices of breastmilk substitutes (BMS Codes), maternity protection, and breastfeeding-friendly health systems. This also includes support for improving early essential newborn care practices in hospitals by establishing centers of excellence for breastfeeding in Viet Nam, Cambodia, Lao PDR, and Myanmar and by setting up human milk banks (HMBs) and HMB services in Viet Nam. 1
2 A&T ASEAN works through partnerships to achieve changes in breastfeeding policies and practices. The ASEAN experience has demonstrated the value of leveraging strategic partnerships and engaging regional platforms to facilitate the replication of proven approaches advancing the Viet Nam government s nutrition agenda setting and action ( ) and coordinating regional policy advocacy with UNICEF for knowledge exchange and diffusion ( ). The success in improving breastfeeding rates at scale in Viet Nam, as well as increased legislative advocacy for BMS marketing regulation and maternity protection has served as a regional catalyst for other country efforts. THE ROLE OF HEALTH WORKERS IN PROMOTING RECOMMENDED MIYCN BEHAVIORS Nutrition during pregnancy and in the first years of a child s life provides the essential building blocks for brain development, healthy growth and a strong immune system. In fact, a growing body of scientific evidence shows that the foundations of a person s lifelong health including their predisposition to obesity and certain chronic diseases are largely set during this 1,000 day window. A situational analysis of malnutrition in the ASEAN region shows that prevalence of stunting and wasting in children under five remains unacceptably high in many ASEAN Member States. Stunting constitutes a severe public health problem in half of ASEAN Member States, and wasting is above the threshold of public health significance (5%) in eight out of 10 ASEAN Member States. An estimated 5.4 million children suffer wasting and 17.9 million are stunted. 1 The causes of undernutrition are directly related to inadequate dietary intake as well as disease, but indirectly to many factors, among others household food security, maternal and child care, health services and the environment. There is strong evidence that the provision of a basic set of evidencebased MIYCN interventions could have a major impact on maternal, infant, and child morbidity and mortality and improve physical and mental growth and development, improving productivity and earnings throughout the region. Strategies to improve nutritional status and growth in children should include interventions to improve nutrition of pregnant and lactating women; early initiation of breastfeeding with exclusive breastfeeding for six months; promotion, protection, and support of continued breastfeeding along with appropriate complementary feeding from six months up to two years and beyond; and micronutrient supplementation, targeted fortification and food supplementation, when needed. 2 To address the underlying and basic causes of undernutiriton, multisectoral approaches that encompass food systems, including agriculture, the private sector, health, WASH, social protection, early childhood development, education, finance, legislation and gender are required. Mothers and families require support to initiate and sustain appropriate MIYCN practices. Health care professionals are important influencers of decisions about nutrition practices and play a critical role in providing support. Therefore, it is essential for health professionals to have basic knowledge and skills to give appropriate advice, counsel, help solve feeding difficulties, and know when and where to refer mothers and caregivers who experiences more complex problems. 3 Despite its importance, MIYCN is generally a neglected area in the pre-service and in-service training of health professionals worldwide. In many countries, there are also parallel and sometimes contradictory systems of training. WHO and UNICEF recommend prioritizing the inclusion of 2
3 harmonized MIYCN content into the basic curricula of medical and paramedical professionals as a feasible and sustainable way to address knowledge gaps and to mitigate issues related to frequent staff turnover and rotation. To support this effort, WHO has developed a model chapter for text books for medical students and allied health professionals. 4 Involving academic institutions and ensuring regular updates of pre-service training material is also essential for developing a well-trained cadre of nutrition advocates and thought leaders. 5 In addition, WHO and UNICEF are in the process of developing an updated comprehensive infant and young child feeding (IYCF) training package which integrates the existing IYCF training module with the community IYCF package and others. This same package will be the foundation of the Global IYCF E-learning package being developed by Alive & Thrive in collaboration with WHO, UNICEF, and others. Pre-service training curricula should devote sufficient time and focus to support and counseling skills for MIYCN, including hands-on skills practice, so that health workers are able to not only provide appropriate messages to mothers, but to negotiate, problem solve, and provide practical support to mothers. MIYCN content should also be harmonized at all levels of the health system, from facility to community level, so that those who provide nutrition counseling disseminate consistent messaging and apply best practices for counseling caregivers and families. 6 THE ASEAN LEADERS DECLARATION ON ENDING ALL FORMS OF MALNUTRITION Through the ASEAN Leaders Declaration (ALD) on Ending All Forms of Malnutrition signed in 2017, Member States have committed to addressing malnutrition and diet-related non-communicable diseases through well-coordinated and coherent regional and sustained multi-sectoral inter-linkages and partnerships. This includes the formulation of a multi-sectoral framework and strategic plan to guide country policies and interventions and to set minimum standards for service delivery and implementation as well as a commitment to strengthen human and institutional capacities to address malnutrition. 7 Ongoing discussions to finalize this operational framework provide an excellent opportunity for the provision of evidence-based recommendations for the Health Cluster and Member States. The ASEAN Joint Coordinating Committee for Medical Practitioners (AJCCM), under the Healthcare Services Sectoral Working Group (HSSWG), is tasked with facilitating cooperation on the Mutual Recognition Arrangements (MRA) for health workers. Mutual Recognition Agreements (MRAs) for medical practitioners and nurses are intended to facilitate the mobility of medical services professionals within ASEAN, enhance exchange of information and expertise on standards and qualifications, promote the adoption of best practices by medical and nursing professionals, and to provide opportunities for capacity building. 8 9 The MRAs for medical practitioners and nurses in the ASEAN region present an opportunity for aligning health worker training on MIYCN across the region. PROPOSED ACTIVITIES Alive & Thrive proposes to conduct a mapping exercise to better understand the existing content and gaps in pre-service health worker education related to MIYCN in the ASEAN region. The specific objectives of the exercise are to: 1. Collect and consolidate pre-service training curricula for health professionals that are recognized and included within the formal health system, including: doctors, nurses, and 3
4 midwives 1, from the following A&T priority countries in ASEAN: Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Myanmar, and the Philippines; 2. Provide an overview of the medical education system in each country, including the recognized roles related to MICYN for each type of provider within the health system; 3. Synthesize the MIYCN content covered in pre-service training curricula, including theoretical and practical training; 4. Identify gaps in pre-service training and recommend appropriate strategies for addressing these gaps, including leveraging regional initiatives in ASEAN; 5. Where applicable, identify best practice cases in terms of curriculum design and content. SCOPE OF WORK To complete the above-mentioned activities, Alive & Thrive is seeking a researcher or group of researchers to: 1. Develop a standardized method for collecting pre-service training curricula and related materials in five countries: Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Myanmar, and the Philippines, in coordination with Alive & Thrive and UNICEF Regional (EAPRO) and country offices; 2. Collect, review, synthesize, and present a summary of the medical education system in each context along with existing MIYCN content and gaps in pre-service health worker education curricula in the five countries; 3. Identify any ongoing initiatives to improve pre-service curricula and the stakeholders involved; 4. Develop country-specific and regional recommendations on how governments and partners (e.g. A&T and UNICEF) can address these gaps; 5. Summarize methods, findings, and recommendations in the form of a report and presentation for each country and for the region, taking into consideration ASEAN Health Cluster Priority Actions.
