Job Description

Background

Access and use of social media in Afghanistan has grown in the past decades, providing new platforms for public discourse through open expression.  Social media has a great potential in promoting polio programme in the country although increased social media incidents have caused more harm than good to the programme. Negative propaganda manifesting itself through anti-vaccine rhetoric, "fake news" and staged viral videos with alleged adverse effects and have caused panic and derailed polio campaign efforts in Afghanistan. In response, the polio programme is working through various social media platforms, predominantly through FB page to drown negative rumors and misinformation, while at the same time advancing the importance of polio vaccination among other programme priorities.

In this light, the polio programme would like to recruit 1 social media Officers - Extenders to support polio social media team in accelerating the online engagement, increase polio awareness, track and rumors/misinformation and advance social listening in the communities. The social media officers will be based in the National Emergency Operating Center (NEOC) but will be able to travel to the field to gather content for the website.
