PROPEL Adapt is a 5-year (September 28, 2022 – September 30, 2027) USAID-funded Promoting Results and Outcomes through Policy and Economic Levers (PROPEL) Adapt project, with a project ceiling of $40 million. The purpose of PROPEL Adapt is to improve the enabling environment in fragile settings for equitable and sustainable health services, supplies and delivery systems through the following strategic approaches: policy development and implementation; adequate, predictable, and sustainable financing; enhanced government stewardship, transparency, and accountability; and an engaged and informed civil society prepared to advocate for improved systems and outcomes. PROPEL Adapt emphasizes voluntary, rights-based family planning/reproductive health (FP/RH), and FP/RH integration with MCH and HIV/AIDS and works across health systems and development sectors to achieve results in FP/RH demand, uptake, and improved health outcomes.

Purpose: The GEDI Senior Technical Advisor is responsible for identifying gaps in knowledge relative to gender and FP/RH, conceptualizing activities to fill those gaps, and leading the technical aspects of those activities to produce a concrete set of deliverables/outputs.

Engagement: The GEDI Senior Technical Advisor will report to the PROPEL Project Director.  In addition, this role will work closely with other technical leads at the central level (Deputy Project Director [DPD] Fragile Settings and Resilience, DPD FP/RH, and DPD Health Financing), as well as with field activity teams working on country buy-ins.

Delivery: On an annual basis, the GEDI Senior Technical Advisor will define and implement a set of core-funded gender-related activities to expand knowledge and tools in this domain. He/she will also update the project’s Gender Strategy, as needed.
