CALL FOR EXPRESSION OF INTEREST(EOI) Selection of Refugee-Led Organizations (RLOs) to Support Community-Based Project Implementation 12 views0 applications


FORM Kenya hosts approximately 836,466 refugees and asylum seekers with the majority residing in Dadaab and Kakuma/Kalobeyei camps as well as in urban areas. Children and youth constitute more than 80% of the refugee population. Refugee communities continue to face the effects of conflict, displacement, poverty and climate-related shocks.

The Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), with support from a variety of donors, implements Information, Counselling and Legal Assistance (ICLA), Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), Education, Shelter, Emergency Response and Energy and Environment interventions across Nairobi, Kakuma, Kalobeyei and Dadaab refugee operations.

NRC supports displaced populations in refugee camps and surrounding host communities in Garissa and Turkana counties, informal settlements resident to urban refugees as well as climate-affected communities in the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASAL) region. Our interventions focus on delivering assistance and promoting long-term solutions for displacement-affected populations.

NRC in Kenya intensified its localisation efforts in 2023 and as NRC develops its 2027–2030 Strategy, locally led solutions are at the heart of its vision, reflecting a commitment to empowering local actors and advancing sustainable, context-driven humanitarian outcomes.

The objective of this Expression of Interest (EoI) is to identify qualified Refugee-Led Organizations (RLOs) that can support project delivery, strengthen community outreach and engagement and facilitate access to services and information at the community level.

Through this process, NRC seeks RLOs with comparative advantages based on:

The Norwegian Refugee Council is an independent humanitarian organisation helping people forced to flee. Whatever it takes. Wherever, and whenever, we're needed.

We deliver high-quality aid where needs are greatest. When we started our relief efforts after World War Two, humanitarian needs were critical. They still are – and we’re still there, protecting people forced to flee and supporting them as they build a new future. Today, we work in both new and protracted crises across 30 countries, where we provide food assistance, clean water, shelter, legal aid, and education. We stand up for people forced to flee. NRC is a determined advocate for displaced people. When we witness injustices, we alert the world. We promote and defend displaced people's rights and dignity in local communities, with national governments and in the international arena. NRC’s Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre in Geneva is a global leader in monitoring, reporting on and advocating for people displaced within their own country.

We respond quickly to emergencies. Our expert deployment capacity NORCAP, the world’s most used, boasts around 900 experts from all over the world. Our experts stand ready to deploy at a moment’s notice to support the UN and local authorities in humanitarian crises.

Around 5,000 men and women work for the Norwegian Refugee Council. Most of us are hired locally to work in the field, and a small number are based at our head office in Oslo. Many of our colleagues were once themselves fleeing their homes.

Today, a record 60 million people are fleeing war and persecution. Not since World War Two have more people needed our help. The Norwegian Refugee Council assisted more than five million people worldwide in 2015, and with your support, we can help even more.
