Closing Date: 11 Apr 2023

Type: Consultancy

THET is responding to a request from the EU to assist with the strengthening of medical education priorities in Northwest Syria (NWS), working with and responding to the priorities of the Syrian Board of Medical Specialities (SBOMS) and other partners.

North West Syria is a non-state area outside of the control of, and with no linkages with, the central government in Damascus. A number of different actors control the region resulting in an inconsistent and undermanaged health system. The health community has been able to develop an approach to maintain the health system to meet the minimum standards of the health system blocks including better service provision to the patients. Most of the health facilities in the area are managed and operated by local and international NGOs (non-governmental organizations) in cooperation with the local health authorities.

The project is further articulated around four result areas:

Strengthened HRH/HSS leadership and governance of selected parameter-compliant actors possibly including the Syrian Board of Medical Specialities (SBOMS), Medical Syndicates, Leagues and/or Associations.
Improved delivery of postgraduate medical education with a focus on shortage specialities (through areas such as curriculum reform, improved clinical skills teaching and modern teaching approaches competency-based assessment procedures, placements, resources, and tools and/or application of learning technologies, based on scoping findings);
Improved understanding of and recommendations for the strengthening of undergraduate medical education; and
Improved understanding of health workforce capacity gaps and needs through a detailed scoping assessment, dialogue, and engagement of key local stakeholders to identify problems and test solutions.

Anaesthesia speciality curriculum, residents- training plan and expected outcomes disaggregated by years and procedures.
