With approval from the Health Team Leader, the Malaria Advisor may be requested to perform governmental functions such as officially representing USAID at functions, approving policy documents, budgeting, and developing planning documents. The PMI Advisor must also possess an understanding of the social, economic and cultural determinants and implications of the malaria epidemic in DRC and neighboring countries, as well as have the experience and skills required to help formulate the USG position on malaria and contribute to important policy decisions as a Malaria Team Leader of the USAID/DRC Health Team.
