NextBillion - An Initiative of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan

On April 15, we’ll kick off our fourth fellowship program. For four months, two researchers will join our studio in Detroit to learn and contribute to meaningful, mission-oriented work.

The Communications and Advocacy Coordinator is responsible for developing and implementing Greater Newark Healthcare Coalition’s (GNHCC) communications and outreach strategies. The coordinator will research evidence-based best practices in support of GNHCC program development and in furtherance of GNHCC’s public education mission.

This role will function collaboratively with the GHP Secretariat Director, and will be a member of the Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) team at FHI 360. The Advocacy Technical Specialist will also coordinate with the GHP’s Steering Committee partners and other members to deliver the GHP’s advocacy strategy.

The intern will help GIE contribute to its mission to helping social entrepreneurs fundraise more effectively and serve as a reliable source of innovation data to the global development community.

The Data Use and Visualization Officer will be based in Lusaka and will provide implementation support to Akros projects by working with client (government and partner) staff to bolster the efficiency and capacity of in-country data systems with the goal of enabling simple data access and meaningful data learning and use.

The Pharmacy Supply Chain Analyst will support the Partners In Health/Inshuti Mu Buzima (PIH/IMB) pharmacy team in analyzing the life cycle of how goods are moved from the planning stages to the end consumer. This will include designing and making the product (possibly in various locations), distributing it, and delivering it to the final destination.

The Communications and Media Relations Coordinator will work support the Boston-based University of Global Health Equity (UGHE) Communications Manager to develop, implement, and direct an effective and strategic communications and external relations program by making the public aware of value and importance of the University, enhancing its image, programs, services, and activities.
