IPPF is a global service provider and a leading advocate of sexual and reproductive health and rights for all. We are a worldwide movement of national organizations working with and for communities and individuals across 170 countries. IPPF aims to improve the quality of life of individuals by campaigning for sexual and reproductive health and rights through the provision of services and through advocacy, especially for adolescents and youth, and other vulnerable people across the globe.
The International Medical Advisory Panel (IMAP) is a body of medical scientists and experts in sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) and other relevant fields with a mandate to formulate and disseminate recommendations to IPPF and other interested parties regarding best practices in SRHR, based on the best available evidence. These recommendations address relevant issues in all aspects of SRHR, including systems strengthening, biomedical, programmatic, training and other service delivery issues. The Panel gives advice to the Director General, the Governing Council and to IPPF members. The Panel operates in a manner that enables it to respond rapidly to critical issues. The Panel works within the scope of IPPF’s Strategic Plan – in support of the IPPF mission to lead a locally-owned, globally connected civil society movement that provides and enables services, and champions sexual and reproductive health and rights for all, especially the underserved.
IPPF seeks a consultant with expertise in the delivery of sexual and reproductive health services in humanitarian settings to produce a statement for IMAP.
The statement will serve to inform and guide the IPPF leadership, the regional offices and member associations on this important issue and provide clarity on IPPF’s position.
