Pact is an international nonprofit that works in nearly 40 countries building solutions for human development that are evidence-based, data-driven and owned by the communities we serve. Founded in 1971, Pact works with partners to build resilience, improve accountability, and strengthen knowledge and skills for sustainable social impact. This Request for Proposals (RFP) is issued under the Accelerating Children's HIV/AIDS Treatment (ACHIEVE) Project, funded by the Department of State (DoS). ACHIEVE works to reduce HIV-related pediatric morbidity and mortality and improve health outcomes for children, adolescents, and their families in Malawi. The Ministry of Health (MoH), through the Reproductive Health Directorate (RHD), has been leading the development of the Integrated Maternal and Newborn Health (MNH) Training Guidelines to strengthen standardized, coordinated, and high-quality MNH capacity building interventions in Malawi. The guidelines are intended to provide a harmonized framework for the implementation of maternal and newborn health training across the country in line with national priorities, standards and evidence-based practices. The guideline development process has been highly consultative, involving key stakeholders and implementing partners supporting MNH programming in Malawi. The process has included technical consultations, review meetings, and a review workshop held in May 2026 aimed to refine the draft guidelines and ensure alignment with current national policies, protocols, and global best practices in maternal and newborn health. Following the review workshop, the RHD recommended a thematic expert review process involving specialists across key MNH content areas. This expert review process is intended to validate and strengthen the technical content prior to final endorsement. To support this process, Pact, through the ACHIEVE Project, seeks to engage a qualified consultant to facilitate the thematic expert review and provide overall coordination, harmonization, technical editing, formatting, and final packaging of the Integrated MNH Training Guidelines. The consultant will be responsible for producing a professionally designed, technically sound and publication-ready document ready for submission to the Ministry of Health Senior Management Team (SMT) for review and endorsement. Period Of Performance The Offeror is expected to perform services from 13th July 2026 through 12th August 2026. Key Responsibilities The objective of this consultancy is to support the Ministry of Health (MoH) Reproductive Health Directorate (RHD) in the thematic expert review, technical validation, finalization, harmonization, editing, formatting, and packaging of the Integrated Maternal and Newborn Health (MNH) Training Guidelines to ensure the document is technically sound, aligned with national priorities and global best practices, and ready for submission to the Ministry of Health Senior Management Team (SMT) for endorsement. Scope of Work The consultant shall: Review the draft Integrated MNH Training Guidelines and all relevant reference materials, policies, protocols, and supporting documents Develop and support the implementation of a thematic expert review process, in collaboration with Pact and the MoH Reproductive Health Directorate, to validate and strengthen the technical content of the guidelines Facilitate and coordinate inputs from thematic experts covering key MNH content areas, including Maternal Health, Newborn Health, E-MOTIVE/Postpartum Hemorrhage (PPH), Eclampsia and Anemia, APT-Sepsis, and introductory and literature review sections Consolidate, harmonize, and incorporate comments and recommendations received from thematic reviewers, ensuring consistency of content, elimination of duplication, and resolution of technical and structural gaps Edit the guidelines for technical accuracy, clarity, readability, grammar, terminology, and consistency in formatting and presentation Support the layout, design and packaging of the guidelines in accordance with Ministry of Health standard and expectations Facilitate the incorporation of feedback from validation and review meetings and work closely with Pact and the MoH Reproductive Health Directorate to finalize the document Prepare and submit final editable and print-ready versions of the Integrated MNH Training Guidelines, including all annexes and supporting materials, for SMT review and endorsement Provide any additional revisions required following SMT review to support final approval and publication of the guidelines

  • •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
  • •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
  • •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
  • •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
  • •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
  • •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
