Research Assistant / HiWi (m/f/d)

wanted latest by September 2024 for the Heidelberger Institut of Global Health.

Our research group emphasizes the use of qualitative research to inform the design, implementation and evaluative understanding of public health programs and interventions in various settings. We routinely partner with interdisciplinary teams to co-design health interventions or surveys, to understand process-based perspectives amid intervention roll-out, and to capture summative insights regarding how end-users or implementers perceive a health intervention. Ongoing projects, for example, focus on antimicrobial resistance or vaccine hesitancy in the Philippines, hypertension management in Uganda, or adolescent health in several Sub-Saharan African contexts.
