Totaling over $300 million in FY 2022, USAID/Tanzania’s development program works to enhance five major sectors: democracy, human rights, and governance; economic development (agriculture, energy, trade, and natural resource management); education, health (including HIV/AIDS, malaria, and maternal child health), with a special focus on youth and women’s empowerment across all the sectors. USAID/Tanzania also manages and supports several United States Presidential initiatives including the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), U.S. President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI), Feed the Future, Power Africa, and the Global Health Initiative. The Deputy Development Outreach and Communications (DOC) Advisor position produces and disseminates public information about USAID’s activities to raise awareness and understanding of USAID programs among target audiences in Tanzania and the United States. The incumbent ensures that the mission sends out a clear, coordinated message in support of USAID/Tanzania’s programs and objectives, and is mindful to ensure consistent inclusion that all USAID-funded projects are paid for by U.S. taxpayer money and, as such, are “from the American people”. The incumbent is responsible for assisting with the development and implementation of a strategic communications strategy that increases visibility of U.S. foreign assistance to Tanzania. Located within the USAID/Tanzania Program Office, the Deputy DOC Advisor reports directly to the Senior DOC Advisor and serves as his/her deputy fully backstopping the position as Senior DOC, as necessary. The work requires close collaboration with the USAID Mission Director, Deputy Mission Director(s), Program Office, USAID/Tanzania Technical and Support offices, USAID/Washington, the U.S. Mission Tanzania leadership and Embassy Public Affairs Section (PAS), CDC, and PEPFAR and other U.S. agencies, offices, and initiatives in Tanzania. The USAID/Washington-based offices requiring contact and coordination include the Africa Bureau, Bureau for Legislative and Public Affairs (LPA), Global Health, Bureau for Food Security, and Power Africa.
