JOB DESCRIPTION
In Zambia, young women and girls face the ‘triple threat’ of HIV, early pregnancy and gender based violence (GBV). The GIZ project “Strengthening Girls Rights” works with the National HIV/AIDS, STIs and TB Council (NAC) to enable young people, especially girls, to exercise their rights and prevent HIV, early pregnancy and GBV.

However, many lack the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively fulfill their tasks. The Chalimbana Local Government Training Institute has the mandate to train PACAs and DACAs, but has yet to develop a comprehensive training offer.

2. Supporting Chalimbana in developing a training curriculum for DACAs and PACAs that responds to the identified capacity needs, and in integrating information on the role of PACAs and DACAs into existing training curriculums for other local government positions
3. Building the capacity of Chalimbana staff to deliver the training modules relevant to PACAs and DACAs, in close collaboration with NAC
4. Strengthening institutional capacities at Chalimbana for developing and utilizing results-based monitoring and evaluations of its training offers for PACAs and DACAs
