POSTE 1

Consultant – Data Analyst

Background

In the last three years, ESPEN has analyzed all available schistosomiasis sub-district data for the endemic countries in the region. To accomplish this, ESPEN has worked with stakeholders to develop a community data analysis tool, to help countries determine endemicity and need for interventions at lower implementation levels. This tool titled “Schistosomiasis community data analysis tool” together with user guidance and webinar, have been published on the ESPEN Portal for continued used by the countries (https://espen.afro.who.int/tools-resources/documents/others). This analysis will enable countries to transition to implementing interventions at community levels, which is the correct approach for schistosomiasis because transmission is focalized around freshwater bodies infested with snail vectors at community level. This process will improve efficiency in use of scarce resources for interventions. It is envisaged that this tool can be utilized for other diseases, especially those whose transmission is focal such as onchocerciasis and malaria. The completed schistosomiasis community data workbooks for 38 countries where community data analysis is relevant, have been presented to all the specific countries for review and validation through engagement with implementation managers at lower levels of implementation.  The tool has placed ESPEN at an advance advantage for implementing the new schistosomiasis guidelines with appreciable efficiency. It also helps to identify data gaps for appropriate re-mapping planning in order to improve granularity of current data.

Justification

WHO launched a new schistosomiasis guideline on the 15^th February 2022. https://www.who.int/news-room/events/detail/2022/02/15/default-calendar/launch-who-guideline-on-control-and-elimination-of-human-schistosomiasis. The new much awaited guideline now provides clear guidance and scientific basis for annual mass treatment in all areas with infection prevalence of 10% and above, intensified treatment in hotspot areas, treatments for all at risk population from children 2 years of age and above, with specific targeting to women of child-bearing area who are at risk of developing female genital schistosomiasis.

In the past year, ESPEN has made tremendous progress with supporting countries to conduct community data analysis for implementation of schistosomiasis elimination activities. Online support and training was provided for 28 countries in finalizing their country level data validation. Further, based on feedback received from users on the data analysis tool, the tool was updated to version 4.0 and integrated into ESPEN data management system, and medicines application tool, the joint application package (JAP). Additionally, disease specific experts from the ESPEN SCH/STH roster of experts were recruited to provide technical support in data analysis and publishing which is currently ongoing. Countries will now need to adjust their community data analysis workbook to the treatment strategies proposed in the new schistosomiasis guideline.

 

1. Deliverables

 

Purpose of the Consultancy

The main purpose is to provide support to ESPEN and the TVD unit general in the data analysis needed for rolling out the new schistosomiasis guidelines. This support will involve reviewing the community data analysis already conducted for the countries in a previous consultancy and adjusting analysis to treatment strategies and evaluation mechanisms proposed in the new schistosomiasis guidelines. The updated community data will be integrated into the AFRO NTD database and made publicly available through the ESPEN NTD Portal. Efforts will be made to expand this strategy to other diseases and for integrated approaches, especially for the mapping of Taenia solium. Additionally, the consultant will continue to provide individualized training and support to disease technical experts who are supporting countries on site, and the NTD programmes based on their specific needs related to the adjustment of treatment strategies for each country.  Specifically, countries will need to adjust their treatment frequencies and medicine needs, using data tools provided by ESPEN through this consultancy. This will require reviewing country data by differentiating baseline mapping and impact survey data. Further, review of treatment history and impact survey to detect hot-spots as defined in the new guideline will be critical. All this data activities will be time consuming and will require additional technical support within the ESPEN data team capacity.
