Background
The Transitional Federal Charter of the Somali Republic (2004) came out of the IGAD sponsored 2002-2004 peace negotiations facilitated by Kenya. A new Federal Constitution was to be drafted and adopted by popular referendum: the final year of the five year transitional period. However, the volatile security and political environment in South Central Somalia for much of 2006 to 2008 was not conducive to the progress of the constitution making process. In light of this, the Djibouti Peace Agreement of November 2008 between the Transitional Federal Government (TFG) and the Alliance for the Reliberation of Somalia (ARS) extended the transitional period and paved the way for a joint constitution commission to both facilitate and complete the constitution process within the new transitional period.
In close collaboration with a consortium of international partners, UNDP is supporting the constitution process through the Somalia Constitution-Making Support Project. This support includes the provision of financial and technical support on the constitution-building process to various Transitional Federal Institutions (TFIs) and civil society groups.
Within this context, UNDP wishes to recruit a Project Management Consultant to provide technical support to the UNDP Somalia Constitution-Making Support Project and the Independent Federal Constitution Commission (IFCC) on the finalization of the Somali constitution process as well as technical support to key political and transitional processes related to the Somali constitution and transitional process

Closing date: 06 Sep 2010
Location: Kenya - UNICEF-ESARO, Nairobi, Kenya
BACKGROUND
Maternal and neonatal tetanus (MNT) kills the poorest of the poor in the developing world. The disease is often prevalent in rural areas where there is difficulty in accessing health services, and where the health care seeking behaviour is skewed towards traditional health care providers and not health facilities. Globally, about 3.72 million newborns die each year, and 4% of these deaths are due to neonatal tetanus. The condition develops when a bacterium, Clostridium tetani, infects a cut or wound. Unclean delivery or abortion practices can result in maternal tetanus, while neonatal tetanus is caused by the unhygienic care of the umbilical cord or umbilical stump in babies. In the absence of intensive hospital care, neonatal tetanus is nearly always fatal.

Who To Blame?
Who To Blame?
Read more on how to have a fulfilling career and doing the best you can to secure your future career instead of blaming all others apart from yourself.
Who do you blame if something goes wrong in your career? Your boss or former boss? Your employer or past employer? Colleagues, family members, or the person who recently was hired and either took away your job or the promotion you wanted?
How about if no one is to blame, but someone is responsible? How about if the responsible person is you?
We Kenyans are a society of blamers. (We all do it. Remember those guys on TV saying naomba serikali ifanye this or that) And even though we criticize others for not taking responsibility for their careers, when it’s our turn and something happens to us, we look outward to assign blame. And who would fault us? The job market has been tough and fear has been rampant. We need to point a finger at someone or something, and in many cases, the finger does not point in our direction.
I am not saying that you should walk around with the world on your shoulders if something in your career goes awry. I am saying to accept what happened, learn from the experience, forgive yourself, make a plan to refocus, and then move on. Time will pass anyway. And how do you want to spend your time? Mad at the world, mad at yourself, or on fire and moving in a positive direction?
So How Do We End The Blame Game? Follow These Steps Below:
1) Recognize What Blame Is Costing You
Sometimes blame feels good. We like to be
