Communication and Information Systems for the Control of Avian Influenza (CISCAI) Project
Background
The ASEAN Foundation is an inter-governmental, non-profit organisation, established by the ten ASEAN Member States (Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, The Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Viet Nam) with the mandates to promote greater awareness of ASEAN among the general public and help address poverty and socio-economic disparity issues in the region.
The ASEAN Foundation implements the Communication and Information Systems for the Control of the Avian Influenza (CISCAI) Project, which aims to research, develop, field test, and deploy sustainable communication and information systems that will support the national efforts to control the spread of the Avian Influenza among animals and humans in ASEAN Member Countries.
The CISCAI Project started in January 2008 with a Project Coordination Unit based at the ASEAN Foundation, Jakarta, Indonesia. To date, the Project has developed software technologies for the control of Avian Influenza, including: 1). Integrated Web Geographical Information System (GIS) based on Free and Open Source Software (FOSS); 2). Volunteer Management System; and 3). Mobile Information and Reporting System.
Currently the CISCAI Project is aiming to expand the coverage of activities not only on the Avian Influenza monitoring and surveillance systems but as well as the other Emerging Infectious Diseases (EID) and Natural Disaster Management Systems (NDMS). The expansion plan will use the existing technologies that have been developed under the CISCAI Project in Viet Nam, Lao PDR, and Indonesia based on the FOSS.
To support the expansion of activities under the CISCAI Project, therefore, the ASEAN Foundation now invites application from Indonesian Citizens and ASEAN Nationals with permanent resident status in Indonesia to apply for the following position:
