Consultancy for Sub-national Health System Readiness for Climate Change Adaptation

Announcement Description

Catholic Relief Services (CRS) is the official international humanitarian agency of the Catholic community in the United States. CRS works to save, protect, and transform lives in need in more than 100 countries, without regard to race, religion, or nationality. CRS’ relief and development work is accomplished through programs of emergency response, HIV, health, agriculture, education, peacebuilding.

Catholic Relief Services (CRS) Cambodia currently implements programming across health and disaster risk reduction sectors and is expanding its strategic engagement in Climate Change Adaptation (CCA).

Climate change is increasing health risks in Cambodia, including heat-related illness, dengue and other vector-borne diseases, water-borne diseases, malnutrition, injuries from floods and storms, and mental health impacts. These risks place additional pressure on sub-national health systems, especially in provinces where health facilities, workforce, local leadership, and community-based volunteers may have limited resources to prepare for and respond to climate-related health threats. Climate change as a health risk multiplier highlights the need to strengthen health systems through better surveillance and early warning systems, climate-resilient health facilities, improved service delivery, and stronger health workforce capacity.

To operationalize this, CRS is looking for a consultant to assess the readiness of the sub-national health system in Preah Vihear Province to address climate change-related health risks and to identify practical actions for strengthening provincial, district, facility, and community-level capacity.
