PNG COVID-19 Emergency Response Project
With funding from the World Bank Group (WB), and in partnership with the National Department of Health of Papua New Guinea (NDOH), UNOPS is assisting the Government of Papua New Guinea (PNG) to reduce the spread of the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) in the country.
The primary objective of this project is to provide NDOH and in turn health facilities across PNG with the key equipment which will strengthen the testing capacity for COVID-19, including, inter alia, providing containerized laboratory, laboratory equipment, medical furniture, cartridges, reagents, consumables, and supporting transportation costs for transporting COVID-19 samples within the Recipient’s territory and to reference laboratory abroad for quality control.
In accordance with the relevant UNOPS / WB Environmental and Social Standards, UNOPS will provide the technical details relevant to the environmental, health and safety risks associated with the operation and decommissioning of equipment as relevant to inform NDOH due diligence. UNOPS will also ensure that the environmental, social, health and safety risks associated with the supply and transportation of goods, the transportation and installation of equipment, are assessed and effectively managed.
To support and supervise the infrastructure activities of this project, namely the installation, minor works and site preparation for equipment such as incinerators, containerized laboratoires and solar panels, UNOPS is hiring a consultant for the position of Lead Civil Engineer.
