Mohamed Belhocine (Arabic: محمد بلحسين) (born in Tizi Ouzou 9 April 1951) is an Algerian medical scientist and professor of internal medicine and epidemiology.[1][2]

Training

After primary studies in Sidi Lakhdar (formerly Lavarande, Aïn Defla Province) and secondary studies at the Lycée Mustapha Ferroukhi in Miliana, Belhocine obtained his Baccalaureate in 1970. He continued his university studies in Medicine at the University of Algiers until obtaining his medical graduation diploma in March 1976.[3][4]

Admitted to the medical residency at the Faculty of Medicine of Algiers, he joined the specialty of internal medicine, which he pursued in the hospitals of Beni Messous and Birtraria. He obtained his Diploma in Special Medical Studies in December 1979.[5][6]

After two years of military service in the Central Hospital of Instruction of the Algerian Army (HCI/ANP), he joined the hospital of Beni Messous as Assistant Master in 1982. At the end of 1984, he prepared a thesis of Docent on the theme of the prevalence of asthma in the population of Chéraga District, the first national epidemiological survey on a representative sample of the population of a Daïra.[7] Having defended this thesis in 1986, he was appointed Doctor of Medical Sciences.[3]

In 1994, he was appointed Professor of Medicine (Clinical professor) on the basis of qualifications and work.[8]

In addition to his course in internal medicine, Belhocine enrolled in 1983-84 and 1986 at the University of Paris VI to study, at a distance, statistics applied to clinical research (methodology, basic bio-statistics, clinical trials) then to epidemiology (sampling, epidemiological surveys).[9][failed verification]

Career in Algeria

A practitioner and teacher since 1977, Belhocine was in charge of launching the new Allied health professions (Paramedic) School of Beni Messous in 1978, in collaboration with Hussein Dey, the only existing school in Algiers at the time. He then organized a recruitment competition for candidates for various paramedical corps and assembled a list of teachers chosen from among the medical and paramedical staff of the CHU. The school of Beni Messous made it possible to loosen the grip of the lack of paramedical personnel at the Teaching hospital (CHU) and beyond.[10]

Belhocine was Assistant Teacher at CHU Algiers Ouest from 1982 to 1990, first at Beni Messous Hospital, then at Zéralda Hospital. From 1990 to 1994, he was Docent in the internal medicine departments, first at the hospital in Douéra, then in Zéralda. During this period, he fulfilled the functions of care, teaching and research. He belongs to the national expert committee for the nomenclature of medicines. He also is an expert with the Faculty of Medicine of Algiers and the Directorate of Training and Research at the Ministry of Health, for research projects.[11]

He is a teacher and responsible for the educational unit of health structures. In July 1996, he was appointed Head Professor of the Internal Medicine Service at the Zéralda University Hospital.

In September 1994, he joined the Ministry of Health, Population, and Hospital Reform as Director of Planning, a position he held until July 1996.[12]

World Health Organization

Main article: World Health Organization

In February 1997, Belhocine was recruited by the regional office of the World Health Organization (WHO) as a regional advisor for clinical and laboratory technologies and quality of care, with the mission of advocating for dissemination and implementation of WHO resolutions on quality of care and quality assurance in public health laboratories.[citation needed] He also co-wrote a guide for donating medical equipment.[13]

In September 1998, he was appointed Director of the Division of Non-communicable diseases (DNC) within the WHO Regional Office for Africa.[14] The purpose of this division is to bring non-communicable diseases (NCDs) out of the shadows. Under her leadership, the division team drafts and submits to the Regional Committee, which is an annual meeting of ministers of health of member states, several WHO regional strategies for mental health, NCDs, health promotion, injury and violence prevention, and infant and young child feeding.[15]

Advocacy for healthy lifestyles, a global survey on smoking among young people in 22 African countries and an active participation of the African group in discussions for the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (CLAT) are also among the division's credits.[16][17][18]

From September 2003 to October 2006, Belhocine was WHO Representative in Nigeria. In this capacity, he supervised and managed a team of over 500 people, deployed in the 36 states of the Federation and the Federal Capital Territory, with a biennial budget of over $250 million. In this period, he notably contributed to the health sector reform process, of which, ex-officio, he chaired the steering committee.[19] It promoted and supported efforts to generate reliable data in various fields: national health accounts; investigation of the effectiveness of antimalarial drugs; economic burden of malaria; mapping of service availability; assessment of antiretroviral treatment sites; sentinel survey on HIV/AIDS; and drug prices.[20]

Belhocine was personally involved in supporting the Federal Ministry of Health, in close collaboration with other partners, for resolving the controversy over the oral polio vaccine, which had started in August 2003 and had resulted in the roll-back of a serious polio eradication program in northern Nigeria and neighboring countries.[21][22] The controversy ended in September 2004 with resumption of vaccinations in areas that previously had rejected it.[23][24]

These vaccination campaigns benefited from establishment of a transparent, efficient mechanism for using donor funds for polio eradication operations.[25][26]

Belhocine supported the preparation of a national response plan for the health sector in the event of an influenza A virus subtype H5N1 epidemic.[27][28] When an avian influenza epidemic broke out in poultry in Nigeria, he chaired the steering committee which coordinated United Nations assistance in the government response.[29][30]

In November 2006, Belhocine was reassigned to Tanzania as WHO representative.[31][32] In addition to a multifaceted support to the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (MSBS) for developing and updating health policies and programs, it establishes solid partnerships with other agencies of the United Nations system in areas of common interest: UNDP, UNICEF, UNFPA, UNAIDS.[33][34]

This contributes to all activities of the United Nations country team, within the framework of Reform of the United Nations System, in particular and involving the WHO office in dialogue on development policy.[35] It supports the response to the Rift Valley fever epidemic both through the MSBS and the joint United Nations team, in close collaboration with other partners such as Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).[36]

United Nations Development Programme

Main article: United Nations Development Programme

At his request, and by competition, Belhocine became Resident Coordinator (RC) of the United Nations System in Tunisia and Resident Representative of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in January 2009.[37] He would hold this position until his retirement on 30 April 2013.[38][39]

He supervised a team of 70, with an annual budget of around $20 million and coordinated the entire United Nations team (around 250 staff).[40] He also was the designated United Nations Security Officer in Tunisia.[41] From its installation, it has strengthened inter-agency coordination and the principle of expression "with one voice" of the United Nations system, as required by the reform.[42][43]

In January 2011 (marked by the Tunisian revolution), he initiated a revision of the United Nations cooperation strategy to adjust the actions of the specialized agencies to the new transitional situation, in light of the country's political and social evolution.[44][45]

"The success of the democratic transition; emergency preparedness and response, in light of the humanitarian crisis on the border with Libya; issues relating to equity, employment and regional development, with particular attention to young people, and finally the environment and climate change.[46][47]

The RC approach has come into play in all these axes. In the field of elections for example, 18 experts have worked with the Independent High Authority for Elections, with the Prime Minister as key entry point. This was an extremely sensitive issue to work on at the time, and the Resident Coordinator made sure that the Tunisians took the lead by keeping a low profile. The UN was thus able to provide relevant support."[48][49]

In April 2013, Belhocine asserted his pension rights at the age of 62.[50]

Consultant

Since 2013, Belhocine has been called upon from time to time for various national and international consultations in the field of public health and development.[51][52]

Among these consultations, at the national level, the UNDP, in agreement with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, hired him in February 2015. This involved organizing and animating 13 workshops to gather different sectors and the United Nations System in order to identify the strategic axes of cooperation between the Algerian government and the United Nations System for 2016 to 2019. At the end of these workshops, he drew up the document on the Algeria-SNU Strategic Cooperation Framework for the period 2016-2019 (commonly called UNDAF).[53][54]

In March 2015, the WHO Algiers office offered to draft a document on the WHO Strategic Cooperation Framework (CCS) with Algeria for the period 2015–2019.[55][56]

Ebola

Main article: Ebola

At the international level, among others, Belhocine was recruited again by the WHO from June 2015 until February 2016 to revitalize the local actions of the WHO in the context of fighting the Ebola virus epidemic.[57][58][59]

He managed a multidisciplinary team of around 700 people with a budget of more than $52 million, while ensuring maintenance of the WHO-Guinea cooperation portfolio.[60][61][62][failed verification]

Arriving in Guinea on 25 June, the country declared about fifty cases per month. On 29 December 2015, on behalf of the WHO, Belhocine officially declared the end of the Ebola epidemic in Guinea.[63][64][65]

Covid-19

Main article: Covid-19

In 2020, with the appearance of the COVID-19 epidemic in Algeria, Belhocine is writing, in collaboration with colleagues, a note contributing to the national response.[66][67][68][69]

This note will be published in the national press. He was then called to join the Scientific Committee in charge of monitoring the epidemic with the Ministry of Health, Population and Hospital Reform.[70][71][72][73]

Belhocine was installed on Wednesday 10 June 2020 as President of the operational unit responsible for monitoring epidemiological investigations as part of the measures taken by public authorities to face the risks of the spread of the Covid -19 in Algeria.[74][75]
