Save the Children is preparing to respond to a USAID five year program
to decrease maternal and newborn mortality. We are therefore seeking
individuals interesting in the following positions:
1. ICT Advisor
The Information, Communication and Technology (ICT) Advisor will be
responsible for developing strategies that exploit the existing
telecommunications and internet systems in Indonesia to support the
objective of decreasing maternal mortality. These systems might be used
to develop consumer demand, to hold district officials accountable for
services or to relay data to health managers.

University,
Criteria for the ICT Advisor include:
* Ability to conceptualize and implement public health messages
aimed at influencing public opinion on health and increasing consumer
demands for responsive governance

networks for information sharing; formal IT experience is useful but not
essential as the emphasis is on technology as a tool, not an end in
itself.

would be desirable
* Experience with previous donor efforts to harness technology to
drive social change would be desirable, experiences outside the health
sector would still be relevant
