PROJECT DESCRIPTION:Meeting Targets and Maintaining Epidemic Control (EpiC), a five-year global project funded by PEPFAR and USAID, is dedicated to achieving and maintaining HIV epidemic control. The EpiC project provides strategic technical assistance (TA) and direct service delivery (DSD) to break through barriers to 95-95-95 and promote self-reliant management of national HIV programs by improving HIV case-finding, prevention, care and treatment programming, and viral load suppression. EpiC is led by FHI 360 with core partners Right to Care, Palladium, Population Services International (PSI), and Gobee Group. The project also draws upon regional resource partners to provide TA, as well as global resource partners who bring unique capacities.The EpiC team's approach to TA is guided by four mutually reinforcing principles: (1) a focus on speed, scale, standards, and sustainability; (2) customization according to local priorities, financing, epidemiology, and the differentiated needs of target populations; (3) adaptive management based on results; and (4) transition of TA and DSD to local and regional partners to enable them to receive direct awards. In addition, EpiC applies human-centered design thinking to resolve persistent challenges along the HIV service cascade.The EpiC approaches includes:- Attain and maintain HIV epidemic control among at-risk adult men, women, and priority populations- Attain and maintain HIV epidemic control among key populations- Improve program management, health information systems, HRH and HIV financing solutions to attain and maintain epidemic control- Support the transition of direct funding and implementation to capable local partners to meet PEPFAR's goal of providing 70 percent of its funding to local partners by 2020JOB SUMMARY/DESCRIPTION:The Technical Assistant in Clinical Services is responsible for providing technical assistance in HIV clinical services for the EPIC project in Jakarta.
