As leading charity recruitment specialists and a certified B Corp™, Harris Hill is committed to high and ever-improving standards of equitable and inclusive recruitment. We actively welcome applications from all sections of the community regardless of age, disability, gender, race, religion, sexuality and other protected characteristics.
The consultant will lead investigations into the ‘The UK’s benefit from funded Health Partnerships under the DHSC funded GHWP’.
As benefit back to the UK becomes increasingly important in the evolving funding landscape, GHP is commissioning a study to explore and examine the value of DHSC-funded health partnerships to the UK health system. While bi-directional learning and mutual benefit have been highlighted through GHWP reports and sharing and learning events, these insights have not yet been fully synthesised or clearly articulated in a way that supports future funding and policy positioning.
We wish to commission a short-term consultancy to review and examine existing literature and data, including published and grey literature, including GHWP reports, reports from other DHSC-funded GHP projects, and other available documentation on the benefits of global health engagement to the UK. (see Related Papers section).
Some qualitative data collection may potentially be involved.
Assignment
Aim
The aim is to produce a concise, evidence-based report that captures key themes such as professional development, system learning, innovation exchange, and reputational value, demonstrating the tangible and strategic returns to the UK from its investment in global health and global health partnerships.
Objectives
-
To identify and analyse the professional and institutional gains for UK health workers and organisations involved in the implementation of the GHWP.

To assess how the GHWP work has contributed to UK health worker and health system strengthening, innovation, and global health leadership.

To build on existing literature and evaluations, including from other DHSC-funded GHP programmes to provide a robust evidence base for the mutual benefits of global health partnerships.
Outcomes

-
Encourage greater support within the NHS for institutional engagement in global health and support within the UK Government for increased spending on global health.

Examine the benefits of Health Partnerships for the UK, using and building on GHP and other data and evidence.
Indicative areas of focus (to be finalised in consultation with the GHP team)
