Vacancy: Does your head fit our cap?
------------------------------------

The Center for the Right to Health (CRH), a non-profit organiza-
tion dedicated to research, training and advocacy for the right
to health in Nigeria, especially for vulnerable groups, such as
people living with HIV/AIDS is set to run extensive HIV/AIDS in-
tervention projects in Imo State. These projects include HIV
treatment literacy education, Voluntary Counselling and Testing
(VCT), advocacy, community mobilization for support for HIV or-
phans and health and health rights education.

To enable us fashion out people oriented and driven intervention
projects that will effectively mitigate the impact of HIV/AIDS
on the community, we intend to conduct a baseline study to ac-
cess the knowledge level of the community in all aspects of
HIV/AIDS especially treatment literacy, VCT and health rights.

We shall utilize questionnaires for the general public and focus
group discussions for certain stakeholders especially health
care providers and PLWHA to generate information.

Consequently, the Center wishes to recruit qualified Research
Officers who must be graduates of Social and Health Sciences and
Public Health with sound communication and interpersonal skills.
The applicants must have good working knowledge of all the three
senatorial zones of Imo State. Great preference will be accorded
to candidates who are resident in Imo State. Graduates of NCE,
OND and Nursing openly living with HIV/AIDS are encouraged to
apply.

All applications, addressed to the Project Director should be
sent by e-mail: mailto:crhaids@yahoo.com, to reach him not later
than Tuesday, October 19, 2004.
