RFP C1-003: Updating, Contextualizing, and Strengthening the Gender Responsiveness of the Training Package, Monitoring Tools, and MOOC on Adolescent

Dear Potential Bidders,

Nutrition International is a global nutrition organization headquartered in Ottawa, Canada. For 30 years, we have focused on delivering low-cost, high-impact, nutrition interventions to people in need. Working alongside governments as an expert ally, we combine deep technical expertise with a flexible approach, increasing impact without increasing complexity or cost. In more than 60 countries, primarily in Asia and Africa, Nutrition International nourishes people to nourish life. Since 1997, the Government of Indonesia (GoI) has implemented weekly iron and folic acid supplementation (WIFAS) for adolescent girls to reduce the risk of future maternal health complications. The intervention was incorporated into the Ministry of Health's (MoH) anaemia prevention guidelines. In 2016, the MoH revised the national anaemia prevention and control programme for adolescent girls and women of reproductive age to align with World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations. The updated policy recommends weekly supplementation with 60 mg elemental iron and 400 µg folic acid throughout the year.

In 2022, the Ministry of Health launched the Aksi Bergizi Movement, a national initiative to improve adolescent nutrition and health. The movement is supported by the 2022 Joint Ministerial Decree of Four Ministers on improving students' health, which promotes cross-sectoral collaboration and encourages the integration of WIFAS and adolescent nutrition education into co-curricular school activities. The policy also aligns with the Healthy Schools Movement (Gerakan Sekolah Sehat), the Seven Core Habits for Indonesian Children (Tujuh Kebiasaan Anak Indonesia Hebat/7 KAIH), and the Safe and Supportive School Culture (Budaya Sekolah Aman dan Nyaman) framework issued by the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education (Kemendikdasmen), positioning school health interventions as integral components of sustainable school practices.

Despite significant policy progress and nationwide expansion of the Aksi Bergizi Movement, implementation challenges remain. These include low adherence to weekly iron and folic acid supplementation, irregular tablet supply, limited nutrition knowledge among adolescents, inconsistent implementation across schools, weak multisectoral coordination, inadequate monitoring systems, and sociocultural barriers that affect adolescent participation. In addition, although the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education (Kemendikdasmen), and the Ministry of Religious Affairs (MoRA) have developed various guidelines, training modules, and behaviour change intervention materials on adolescent nutrition and health education, dissemination and capacity-building remain limited. Orientation and training for school teachers are insufficient, and practical job aids to support classroom delivery of nutrition education are not widely available. As a result, teachers often lack the knowledge, confidence, and resources to effectively deliver nutrition and health education sessions. To address these gaps and strengthen the capacity of program managers of adolescent health and nutrition programs, health workers and school teachers, development professionals and government official working in nutrition and related non-nutrition sectors the Ministry of Health has requested Nutrition International's support to develop a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on Adolescent Nutrition and Health Education in MoH’s e-LMS (Plataran Sehat). The MOOC will provide a standardized, scalable, and sustainable learning platform to improve knowledge and facilitate consistent implementation of adolescent nutrition interventions nationwide. Accordingly, Nutrition International seeks to engage a local consultant to adapt a gender-responsive training package, monitoring tools, and the Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on Adolescent Nutrition and Health Education for Puskesmas staff and school teachers. In order to address these gaps, the Ministry of Health has requested Nutrition International's support to develop a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on Adolescent Nutrition and Health Education for Puskesmas staff and school teachers.

Nutrition International seeks a local individual consultant/a consultant firm to adapt a gender-responsive training package, monitoring tools, and the Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on Adolescent Nutrition and Health Education for Puskesmas staff and school teachers.
