- Increased risk of HIV in women
- Infertility
The role
The Associate Technical Advisor will support project management and provision of technical assistance to endemic country governments across a portfolio of NTD projects, with a focus on schistosomiasis (SCH) and soil-transmitted helminthiases (STH).

The International Organization for Migration (IOM) in the United Kingdom delivers a range of programming to support migrants, both in the UK and internationally, including projects focusing on labour migration, resettlement, migration and development, migrant protection, human trafficking and modern slavery, and community cohesion.
Survivors of modern slavery and human trafficking who were trafficked to the UK may decide to return to their country of origin. Evidence shows that support provided to survivors once they return home is crucial to helping them reintegrate safely and ensuring good overall protection outcomes, including protection against the risk of being re-trafficked. It also highlights the important role support providers play in preparing survivors for return and assisting them to access reintegration services and other forms of support in their countries of origin. However, potential areas for improvement have been identified among voluntary return support providers in the UK, including: how risks are assessed and managed; the quality and consistency of information provided on support available in countries of return; understanding barriers to accessing services; and how to ensure procedures for contact/ referrals are clear and consistent
IOM has been awarded a Home Office grant for a project which seeks to increase the capacity of organisations in the UK who support survivors of human trafficking and modern slavery (UK support providers) in the area of voluntary return and reintegration. In particular, the project will work across the following 3 outputs:
1) A comprehensive assessment of current voluntary return arrangements for survivors of all genders and ages in the UK will be carried out
2) A national mapping of available reintegration services and how survivors can access these services in common countries of return is completed (covering Albania, Brazil, China, India and Pakistan)
3) Voluntary return support providers across the UK have increased capacity to conduct appropriate risks assessments and risk management plans, and to provide clarity and consistency in the referral process.
IOM seeks a consultant to deliver key activities to support outputs 1 and 2.
