Support for GHLC 2026 Group Project Management, Seed Fund Administration and Documentation

ProcureProcess - WHO Others Non Governmental 2026-06-08 to 2026-06-18
Background The Global Health Learning Centre (GHLC) is a flagship annual programme of WHO WPRO that provides opportunities for mid-level government health officials from eligible countries in the Western Pacific Region to strengthen global health knowledge, leadership capacity, and practical policy implementation skills. The course delivers learning across three interconnected areas: global health knowledge, leadership and management, and policy implementation. GHLC 2026 will run from 8 June to 28 August 2026 as a blended learning journey, from group project preparation, through intensive technical, management and leadership training, to group project implementation and follow-up support. In GHLC 2025, six multi-country teams worked on group projects spanning maternal and child health, communicable diseases, mental health, and noncommunicable diseases. Each team received up to US$ 8,000 in seed funding, was paired with a Regional Office mentor, and was guided through structured review sessions to finalise their implementation plans. A contracted partner provided financial administration and documentation support, ensuring clear accountability across the project cycle. By the close of the programme, all six groups had completed their plans and were cleared for funding disbursement, with pilots running through March 2026. This experience demonstrated that, with the right administrative and mentoring support, GHLC group projects can effectively translate learning into practical, country-level health action. WHO WPRO, through the Capacity and Leadership Strengthening unit of Division of Data, Strategy and Innovation, is engaging a specialised contractor to provide support in group project management, seed fund administration, and knowledge documentation, building on the successful arrangements from GHLC 2025. The purpose of this assignment is to support the delivery and management of the group project of the Global Health Learning Centre (GHLC) 2026 of the WHO Regional Office for the Western Pacific (WPRO). The contracted support will: Administer GHLC 2026 seed funds on behalf of WHO WPRO; Provide end-to-end project management and implementation support to GHLC fellows throughout the programme cycle; Document group project outcomes to contribute to institutional learning and programme visibility.
