Job Title: Field Supervisor

Overview

  • Malaria Consortium is a recipient of a new grant from Gavi to carry out an implementation research to generate evidence for an effective hybrid model of malaria vaccine delivery in Nigeria. 
  • It will assess feasibility, coverage, health impact and cost effectiveness of the hybrid model in highly seasonal malaria transmission settings. 
  • The hybrid model proposed offers timely demand creation, monitoring and follow-up to maximize protection for eligible children during the malaria season.

The specific research objectives are as follows:

  • To assess the feasibility and acceptability of the hybrid model
  • To evaluate the impact of the hybrid model on malaria vaccination coverage, timeliness of vaccination, vaccine-preventable malaria parasitological outcomes, caregiver outcomes (vaccine awareness, knowledge and perceptions) and utilization of non-vaccine malaria prevention interventions
  • To assess the costs associated with implementing the interventions.

Job Purpose

  • The purpose of the assignment is to engage research consultants that will conduct quantitative surveys of a hybrid vaccination schedule with different delivery approaches.

Scope of Assignment

  • The overall objective of this consultancy is to support MC in generating evidence for an effective hybrid model of malaria vaccine delivery in highly seasonal malaria transmission settings. 
  • This involves conducting quantitative survey to evaluate the impact of implementing the hybrid malaria vaccine immunization with different delivery approaches on malaria vaccination coverage, timeliness of vaccination, vaccine-preventable malaria parasitological outcomes, caregiver outcomes (vaccine awareness, knowledge and perceptions) and utilization of non-vaccine malaria prevention interventions.

Methodology

  • This will involve a three-arm non-randomized controlled study based on repeated cluster-random sampling of households and eligible children before and after the introduction of the interventions. 
  • Study arm units will be three (3) local government areas (LGAs) in Kebbi state while cluster sampling unit will be defined at an administrative unit below the LGA level, such as health facility catchment areas, villages or census enumeration areas. 

The primary and secondary outcomes to be measured are listed below:
Primary outcomes:

  • Vaccination coverage
  • Incidence of parasitologically-confirmed clinical malaria episodes among vaccine-eligible children using enhanced passive case surveillance.

Secondary outcomes:

  • Proportion of age-eligible children receiving 1/2/3 doses in the priming series
  • Timeliness of vaccination dosing among children who received at least one malaria vaccine dose
  • Occurrence of malaria severity and hospitalization, among vaccine-eligible children
  • Caregivers’ awareness, knowledge and perception of the malaria vaccine
  • Coverage and utilization of non-vaccine malaria prevention services (e.g. SMC, ITNs)

Note

  • Data for the two primary outcomes (vaccination coverage and parasitologically confirmed malaria episodes) as well as secondary outcomes of interest under Objective 2 will be collected through two waves of household surveys. 
  • The first survey wave will be conducted at baseline (shortly before the start of the interventions), while the second (endline) wave will be carried out six months after the start of the interventions. 
  • The survey questionnaire will be developed in line with Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) standards, which will also allow for the collection of data pertaining to child, caregiver and household-level sociodemographic characteristics in each survey wave.

Specific Objectives

  • Attend physical training on data collection and survey methods conducted by Research Team lead.
  • Provide supportive supervision for data collectors using appropriate supervision checklist.
  • Oversee data collection process, including logistics and community entry and mobilization
  • Follow confidentiality and security procedures to ensure participants’ privacy is protected.
  • Ensure the integrity of data during collection and upload
