Background and Objectives of the FCDO Ending Preventable Deaths (EPD) Programme
The EPD Support Programme aims to aid FCDO central and country teams in their efforts to end preventable deaths of mothers, babies, and children by 2030. The programme will enhance health systems, promote human rights, and foster healthier environments in 11 flagship countries. The programme will provide long-term and short-term technical assistance (TA) through local and international consultants and a strategic flexible fund to support FCDO teams.
The IRC is recruiting consultants to join our consultant pool for the EPD Support Programme. We are seeking short-term (6 weeks per year) consultants to provide technical assistance to FCDO country teams to influence policy, legal, and strategic frameworks necessary for progress on EPD. The technical assistance required in each country will be determined through consultations with national governments. This tailored assistance will address the unique needs of each country, ensuring effective support for FCDO central and country teams.

Provide short-term consultancy services for assignments ranging from a few weeks to nine months.
Offer deep specialist engagement on specific issues aligned with the three pillars of EPD: health systems, human rights, gender equality (including SRHR), and healthier environments (WASH, nutrition, climate, and health).

Collaborate with donor partners to improve alignment and coordination of EPD investments.
Ensure SRHR, nutrition, and WASH integration within large health investments.
Make your job applications stand-out from other candidates.
