About the Global Health Corps Fellowship: Global Health Corps is a one-year paid fellowship that pairs young professionals with organizations (fellowship placement organizations) that require new thinking and innovative solutions. We believe that great ideas don't change the world, great PEOPLE do! The fellowship begins in July 2015 and extends through August 2016. Fellows engage in professional development training, mentorship and thoughtful community-building, and continue to draw upon their fellowship experience and the GHC alumni network as they build careers of lasting impact.

Applicants can apply for up to 3 different fellowship positions, such as the one described below. To see the full list of fellowship positions, go to:http://ghcorps.org/fellows/apply/through-placements/.

Fellows are placed in organizations in pairs – one international fellow and one local fellow from the placement country – creating a fellowship team that is a central part of the fellowship experience.

About the Fellowship Placement Organization:

Jhpiego is an international, non-profit health organization affiliated with The Johns Hopkins University. For 40 years and in over 155 countries, Jhpiego has worked to prevent the needless deaths of women and their families. Jhpiego works with health experts, governments and community leaders to provide high-quality health care for their people. Jhpiego develops strategies to help countries care for themselves by training competent health care workers, strengthening health systems and improving delivery of care.

Jhpiego designs innovative, effective and low-cost health care solutions to ensure a level of care for women and their families. These practical, evidence-based interventions are breaking down barriers to high-quality health care for the world's most vulnerable populations. Jhpiego has worked off and on in Uganda for nearly 30 years. In 2011, Jhpiego made a strategic decision based on country needs and interests from key stakeholders to establish a country office, with the goal of strengthening Jhpiego's support to Uganda's Ministry of Health. The fellows will actively participate in developing this exciting endeavor.

Fellowship Position Overview: The Knowledge Management, Communication and External Relations fellows will work closely with the Country Director and individual program managers to ensure that the Jhpiego-Uganda program is capturing and communicating program information effectively, using as many means as possible, to a wide range of external audiences in Uganda. The fellows will work with the Country Director to ensure regular and effective interpersonal engagements with key partners and stakeholders; and active external relations efforts that target many different groups, including partners at the community/district levels, decision makers in Kampala, and interested international audiences. Finally, these fellows will work with the Country Director to devise systems by which the external policy and programmatic environment is being monitored, and findings from this "environmental scanning" process are being incorporated into program planning and implementation. As core members of a small team, these fellows will be fully engaged in many aspects of program activity, and will have the opportunity to contribute their ideas on how to improve programs to better respond to the needs and interests of the external environment.
