Public Health Support Officer
3 months ago
The Special Initiative on Noncommunicable Diseases (NCDs) and Innovation (SNI) supports Member States in their efforts to eradicate NCDs in the WHO European Region.
SNI acknowledges the need for immediate action and aims for a visionary shift to prioritize NCDs on political and health agendas for future generations.
While working towards NCD-related SDG commitments by 2030 (RACE to the Finish), SNI also advocates for generational changes to tackle NCDs long-term (Vision 2050) and to create a sustainably healthier European Region.
SNI's mission is to help Member States achieve a healthier population and address NCD disparities like cancer, cardiovascular diseases, chronic respiratory diseases, and diabetes that exist within and across countries.
SNI is also responsible for driving Public Health Innovation efforts across all WHO activities in the European Region, not limited to NCDs.
SNI promotes forward-thinking, agile innovation, adapting to the evolving needs of a region facing demographic, societal, and environmental shifts, emergencies, and rapid technological advancements.
Tasks in this area involve supporting a network of health innovators, matching innovative solutions with public health needs, and exploring new frontiers such as applying artificial intelligence to public health.
The WHO country office collaborates with National Authorities to ensure the highest health standards as a basic human right, with a focus on equity and the SDGs principle of leaving no one behind.
WHO's actions align with the WHO 13th General Programme of Work, emphasizing the promotion of healthier populations, ensuring global health security by addressing health crises, and safeguarding vulnerable groups through Universal Health Coverage.

WHO at the country level addresses health challenges through practical, tailored solutions, recognizing that achieving health and well-being involves a collective effort. This includes overseeing the implementation of the Biennial Collaborative Agreement and corresponding workplans with the country.
The WHO Country Office nurtures collaborative relationships, facilitates information exchange between the country and WHO, provides health policy guidance to national and international partners, offers technical expertise, encourages community engagement, and advocates for health equity.

- Engage with UN partners and stakeholders on relevant matters related to the position's objectives.
- Assist in the execution of national programs for capacity building in healthier populations areas and in the management and financing of related systems.
- Collaborate with other sectors beyond healthcare to identify common goals that enhance people's lives, health, and well-being.
- Act as a national resource for integrating multisectoral programs in healthier populations and mainstream crosscutting themes like health equity and urban health.
- Represent WHO in designated forums and serve as a technical focal point for Healthier Populations' program areas.
