STATEMENT OF WORK POSITION DESCRIPTION BACKGROUND The Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA) is the office within USAID that is responsible for providing non-food humanitarian assistance in response to international crises and disasters. OFDA is part of the Bureau for Democracy, Conflict, and Humanitarian Assistance (DCHA) and is organized into three divisions under the management of the Office of the Director (OD). The Program Support Division (PS) provides programmatic and administrative support including budget/financial services, procurement planning, contracts and grants administration, and communication support for OFDA’s Washington and field offices. The Disaster Response and Mitigation Division (DRM) is responsible for coordinating with other organizations for the provision of relief supplies and humanitarian assistance. DRM also devises, coordinates, and implements program strategies for a variety of natural and human caused disaster situations. DRM hires sector specialists to provide technical expertise in assessing the quality of disaster response. The Operations Division (OPS) develops and manages logistical, operational, and technical support for disaster responses and administrative support to all offices and operations. OPS maintains readiness to respond to emergencies through several mechanisms, including managing Search and Rescue Teams (SAR), Disaster Assistance Response Teams (DARTs), and Washington-based Response Management Teams (RMTs). INTRODUCTION Cyclical droughts, exacerbated by a rapidly growing population and limited government capacity, have led to chronic food insecurity and water shortages in Ethiopia. Major drought and famine episodes in 1984/1985, 1993 to 1999, 2002/2003, and 2005 have rendered several areas of Ethiopia increasingly vulnerable to emergencies, while the cumulative effects of multiple crises have exhausted many household coping mechanisms. The repeated failure of the short rains has adversely affected crop production and resulted in significant livestock losses due to severe shortages of water and pasture. Since 1991, USAID has provided more than $2.85 billion in humanitarian assistance to Ethiopia, including $161.2 million in USAID/OFDA emergency interventions. USAID has deployed humanitarian assessment teams, including Disaster Assistance Response Teams, to Ethiopia in 2000, 2003, 2005, and 2006. Since the 2002/2003 emergency, USAID/OFDA has adopted a more comprehensive approach to saving lives and alleviating human suffering in Ethiopia, focusing on livelihood interventions that complement emergency assistance, while promoting economic resilience and diverse strategies to break the cycle of famine and poverty. In a shift towards more sustainable solutions to address recurrent emergency problems, USAID/OFDA assists vulnerable families in undertaking a variety of activities to enhance coping mechanisms at the household level to improve food security. Current USAID/OFDA interventions, including cash-for-work programs, livestock health activities, and livelihoods fairs, meet immediate emergency needs while helping to develop household and community assets for the long-term benefit of drought-affected regions. However, communities in Ethiopia remain vulnerable due to endemic poverty, chronic malnutrition, high cereal prices, limited access to water and pasture, conflict, localized agricultural failure, and other shocks. Approximately 8 million people continue to receive food or cash assistance through the Government of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (GFDRE) Productive Safety Net Program (PSNP), which is funded by multiple donors. The delayed onset and poor performance of the March to April belg rains, combined with the failure of the previous two consecutive rains, has resulted in below normal harvests and diminished pasture throughout Somali, Oromiya, and Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples (SNNP) regions. Significant humanitarian challenges, including flooding, conflict, malnutrition, acute watery diarrhea (AWD) outbreaks, delayed food response, and locust infestations, confront populations in many areas of the country. In Somali Region, insurgent activity and security operations have disrupted trade networks, and restrictions on the movement of people and livestock, combined with the onset of drought conditions, have exacerbated food insecurity for vulnerable populations. In April 2008, the GFDRE, United Nations (UN), and humanitarian partners launched an appeal for $67.7 million for Ethiopia, requesting emergency assistance for approximately 2.2 million people. OFDA has maintained a programmatic presence in Ethiopia since the 1999-2000 conflict with Eritrea. The OFDA program office is located within the USAID Mission in Addis Ababa and works collaboratively with all USAID/Ethiopia teams and particularly closely with the Alternative Livelihoods and Transition (ALT) office. This team consists of OFDA’s East and Central Africa Regional Office (ECARO) based in Nairobi, which is led by a Principal Regional Advisor (ECARO/PRA) and includes a Regional Advisor (ECARO/RA) with specific responsibility for Ethiopia; and the East and Central Africa (ECA) team in Washington, D.C., which is led by a Regional Coordinator (RC) and includes a Disaster Operations Specialist (DOS) with specific responsibility for Ethiopia. OBJECTIVE OFDA must recruit a Program Officer for Ethiopia in order to meet its program objectives. The incumbent will serve as a member of OFDA’s Ethiopia Program Office and will be the primary point of contact for the implementation of OFDA’s response activities 9. CORE FUNCTIONAL AREAS OF RESPONSIBILITY DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES The OFDA Program Officer will primarily provide full time in-country coordination and management of the humanitarian emergency efforts throughout Ethiopia, under the direction of the Senior Program Officer. This position requires substantial daily coordination with several OFDA staff members, as well as with representatives from other USAID offices and the humanitarian community, and therefore requires a highly collaborative work style. The Program Officer must be prepared to function effectively in a challenging and restrictive work environment and be willing to strictly adhere to U.S. Embassy security guidelines. The Program Officer's responsibilities will include the following: • Serve as the principal in-country point of contact for OFDA assistance awardees and advise OFDA Cognizant Technical Officer on award issues from development through implementation. • In close coordination with the ECARO/RA and the DOS, work with non-governmental organizations (NGOs), international organizations (IOs), and UN agencies that are developing proposals for OFDA (including grant amendments and extensions). Ensure that draft proposals are in compliance with “OFDA's Guidelines for Unsolicited Proposals and Reporting.” Review concept papers and proposals, and provide recommendations/comments to OFDA for final funding determination. • Participate, as requested by the Senior Program Officer, on a broad spectrum of assessments of emergency conditions and assist in the development programmatic recommendations and implementation mechanisms for OFDA’s response programs. • Maintain regular contact with OFDA grantees, as well as other UN agencies, IOs, and NGOs. Meet regularly with U.S. Government (USG) personnel, donors, Ethiopian authorities, and others on humanitarian issues. As requested by Senior Program Officer, represent OFDA at humanitarian coordination meetings. • Travel frequently to assess, evaluate and monitor conditions at OFDA project sites in Ethiopia. Report to OFDA CTO on the quality of the grantee’s work, noting deficiencies, attributes and evolving operational conditions, in close coordination with the ECARO/RA. • Provide regular reporting, through official cables and other means, on issues related to the humanitarian situation in Ethiopia. Provide overviews of patterns and trends in the humanitarian situation and keep the ECARO/PRA, ECARO/ RA, RC, and DOS current on response issues. Provide regular reports on site visits, meetings, general atmospherics and other issues that impact humanitarian relief efforts. • Prepare agendas and briefings for official USG visitors interested in humanitarian issues. • Assist in humanitarian assistance activities in the East and Central Africa region; serve as a critical component of a USG disaster assessment team, DART, RMT, or backfill other staff members in the overseas office, in response to crisis situations. SUPERVISORY RELATIONSHIP: The Program Officer will report to the Senior Program Officer in OFDA’s Ethiopia Program Office, and maintain close coordination with the Regional Advisor in Nairobi and the Disaster Operations Specialist in Washington, D.C. SUPERVISORY CONTROLS: The supervisor will set overall objectives and will work with the Program Officer to determine deadlines and work priorities. The incumbent is expected to take initiative, act independently, and perform with moderate direction in responding to humanitarian emergencies as part of a fast-paced office environment. 10. PHYSICAL DEMANDS The work is generally sedentary and does not pose undue physical demands. During deployment on Disaster Assistance Response Teams (DARTs) (if required), and during site visits, there may be some additional physical exertion including long periods of standing, walking over rough terrain, or carrying of moderately heavy items (less than 50 pounds). 11. WORK ENVIRONMENT Work is primarily performed in an office setting. During deployment on Disaster Assistance Response Teams (DARTs) (if required), and during site visits, the work may additionally involve special safety and/or security precautions, wearing of protective equipment, and exposure to severe weather conditions. 12.

ATTACHMENT 1 ACQUISITION & ASSISTANCE POLICY DIRECTIVE (AAPD) NO. 06-10 PSC MEDICAL EXPENSE PAYMENT RESPONSIBILITY General Provision 22, MEDICAL EXPENSE PAYMENT RESPONSIBILITY (OCTOBER 2006) (a) Definitions. Terms used in this General Provision are defined in 16 FAM 116 available at http://www.foia.state.gov/REGS/fams.asp?level=2&id=59&fam=0. Note: personal services contractors are not eligible to participate in the Federal Employees Health Programs. (b) The regulations in the Foreign Affairs Manual, Volume 16, Chapter 520 (16 FAM 520), Responsibility for Payment of Medical Expenses, apply to this contract, except as stated below. The contractor and each eligible family member are strongly encouraged to obtain health insurance that covers this assignment. Nothing in this provision supersedes or contradicts any other term or provision in this contract that pertains to insurance or medical costs, except that section (e) supplements General Provision 25. “MEDICAL EVACUATION (MEDEVAC) SERVICES.” (c) When the contractor or eligible family member is covered by health insurance, that insurance is the primary payer for medical services provided to that contractor or eligible family member(s) both in the United States and abroad. The primary insurer’s liability is determined by the terms, conditions, limitations, and exclusions of the insurance policy. When the contractor or eligible family member is not covered by health insurance, the contractor is the primary payer for the total amount of medical costs incurred and the U.S. Government has no payment obligation (see paragraph (f) of this provision). (d) USAID serves as a secondary payer for medical expenses of the contractor and eligible family members who are covered by health insurance, where the following conditions are met: (1) The illness, injury, or medical condition giving rise to the expense is incurred, caused, or materially aggravated while the eligible individual is stationed or assigned abroad; (2) The illness, injury, or medical condition giving rise to the expense required or requires hospitalization and the expense is directly related to the treatment of such illness, injury, or medical condition, including obstetrical care; and (3) The Office of Medical Services (M/MED) or a Foreign Service medical provider (FSMP) determines that the treatment is appropriate for, and directly related to, the illness, injury, or medical condition. (e) The Mission Director may, on the advice of M/MED or an FSMP at post, authorize medical travel for the contractor or an eligible family member in accordance with the General Provision 10, Travel and Transportation Expenses (July 1993), section (i) entitled “Emergency and Irregular Travel and Transportation.” In the event of a medical emergency, when time does not permit consultation, the Mission Director may issue a Travel Authorization Form or Medical Services Authorization Form DS-3067, provided that the FSMP or Post Medical Advisor (PMA) is notified as soon as possible following such an issuance. The contractor must promptly file a claim with his or her medevac insurance provider and repay to USAID any amount the medevac insurer pays for medical travel, up to the amount USAID paid under this section. The contractor must repay USAID for medical costs paid by the medevac insurer in accordance with sections (f) and (g) below. In order for medical travel to be an allowable cost under General Provision 10, the contractor must provide USAID written evidence that medevac insurance does not cover these medical travel costs. (f) If the contractor or eligible family member is not covered by primary health insurance, the contractor is the primary payer for the total amount of medical costs incurred. In the event of a medical emergency, the Medical and Health Program may authorize issuance of Form DS-3067, Authorization for Medical Services for Employees and/or Dependents, to secure admission to a hospital located abroad for the uninsured contractor or eligible family member. In that case, the contractor will be required to reimburse USAID in full for funds advanced by USAID pursuant to the issuance of the authorization. The contractor may reimburse USAID directly or USAID may offset the cost from the contractor’s invoice payments under this contract, any other contract the individual has with the U.S. Government, or through any other available debt collection mechanism. (g) When USAID pays medical expenses (e.g., pursuant to Form DS-3067, Authorization for Medical Services for Employees and/or Dependents), repayment must be made to USAID either by insurance payment or directly by the contractor, except for the amount of such expenses USAID is obligated to pay under this provision. The Contracting Officer will determine the repayment amount in accordance with the terms of this provision and the policies and procedures for employees contained in 16 FAM 521. When USAID pays the medical expenses, including medical travel costs (see section (e) above), of an individual (either the contractor or an eligible family member) who is covered by insurance, that individual promptly must claim his or her benefits under any applicable insurance policy or policies. As soon as the individual receives the insurance payment, the contractor must reimburse USAID for the full amount that USAID paid on the individual’s behalf or the repayment amount determined by the Contracting Officer in accordance with this paragraph, whichever is less. If an individual is not covered by insurance, the contractor must reimburse USAID for the entire amount of all medical expenses and any travel costs the contractor receives from his/her medevac provider. (h) In the event that the contractor or eligible family member fails to recover insurance payments or transfer the amount of such payments to USAID within 90 days, USAID will take appropriate action to collect the payments due, unless such failure is for reasons beyond the control of the USPSC/dependent. (i) Before departing post or terminating the contract, the contractor must settle all medical expense and medical travel costs. If the contractor is insured, he or she must provide proof to the Contracting Officer that those insurance claims have been submitted to the insurance carrier(s) and sign a repayment agreement to repay to USAID any amounts paid by the insurance carrier(s).
