BACKGROUND Financial Sector Deepening Kenya (FSD Kenya) is an independent trust promoting a green and inclusive digital economy by improving financial health for women and MSEs. Partnering with public and private sectors, FSD Kenya addresses challenges faced by low-income households and underserved groups. Funded by entities like UK International Development, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida), The International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, FSD Kenya focuses on sustainable financial solutions, systemic change, and has launched programs such as the Affordable Housing Program and supported Makueni County's revenue and land information management systems. OBJECTIVES Support two counties in developing or enhancing a County Electronic Land Information Management System (C-LIMS) to digitize land transactions, improve revenue collection, and manage development applications. The C-LIMS will provide accurate land information via a GIS database, aiding policy formulation and decision-making. It aims to enhance service delivery, tenure security, and sustainable land use. Initial tasks include conducting a needs assessment and feasibility evaluation, followed by developing a scalable pilot system that can be incrementally enhanced as more data and funding become available. SCOPE OF WORK Scoping Mission – approximately 3 months The scoping mission aims to assess user needs and the feasibility of developing a pilot County Land Information Management System (C-LIMS) aligned with each county's aspirations, as well as evaluate the availability and quality of data and organizational capacity for C-LIMS development. Policy and Legal Framework: Review existing and pending policies, guidelines, and laws for digitizing county revenue collection and development application management. Understand linkages between county and national functions in e-conveyancing and land registration. Land Records and Register: Assess the availability and status of county land records, including ownership data disaggregated by gender. Revenue Collection: Evaluate the status of the county valuation roll, revenue collected in previous years, and expected future revenue. Examine current billing and collection processes for county revenue streams (e.g., rates, licenses). Geospatial Data: Assess the availability of maps and geospatial data and the ease of capturing land data in a geodatabase. Land Use Planning: Review the county's physical and land use plans, status of County Integrated Development Plan, including specific zones for affordable housing development. Understand historical and potential revenue from development approvals. Digitization Efforts: Evaluate current digitization of land transactions and available hardware, software, and skills of county personnel. Review platforms used for digitizing wider county functions. County Organogram: Identify key departments and personnel for C-LIMS implementation. Assess current manual and digital processes, interactions, communication, and budget allocation for C-LIMS development. Stakeholder Engagement: Engage with national and county land authorities and committees to establish coordination levels between registries. Baseline Metrics: Identify metrics for monitoring and evaluating the pilot C-LIMS. Final Output: Develop a framework and work plan for the pilot C-LIMS with county staff, detailing project objectives, regulatory requirements, and team responsibilities. Development of Pilot C-LIMS (Approximately 6-9 Months) Based on the scoping mission findings, develop a pilot County Land Information Management System (C-LIMS) focusing on capturing, visualizing, and analysing spatial land information. The system aims to aid in revenue collection and manage development approvals in the short term, while being designed to be able to onboard more land functions and integrate with the National Land Information Management System (Ardhi Sasa) over time. Pilot Development: Design a scalable pilot C-LIMS that can integrate more data over time. Ensure the system assists in tracking development applications, including housing unit delivery. System Integration: Align the pilot C-LIMS with the National Land Information Management System (NLIMS/Ardhi Sasa) functions without compromising county and national roles. Scope Focus: Focus on county land records for revenue collection and development control, with potential for future enhancements. Collaboration: Develop the system in close collaboration with county teams to ensure maintenance and sustainability post-consultancy.

These challenges have led a large proportion of preventable NCD morbidities and deaths in Somalia, causing disabilities and fatalities. NCDs, including injuries, account for 40% of Somalia’s deaths and disabilities. Additionally, there is a significant shortage of trained healthcare professionals and a lack of rehabilitation professionals. Infrastructure damage, including hospitals and clinics, further exacerbates the challenges in delivering adequate rehabilitation services.

Five orthopedic technician assistants work at the workshop in Hargeisa, including one trained in TATCOT (Tanzanian Training Centre for Orthopedic Technologists) at a certificate level.

Adult physiotherapy for patients with stroke, post-fracture and trauma complications, muscle weaknesses, joint stiffness, back pains, etc. The regional units in Borama, Burao, and Erigavo, each employ two Rehab Workers who provide basic rehabilitation services. In Borama and Erigavo, the rehab services are based within the general hospitals, while in Burao, they operate outside the hospital premises. The rehab workers undergo a six-month training program covering the fundamentals of rehabilitation theory and practice, enabling them to administer basic therapy and fabricate simple orthopedic devices such as crutches.

Regional Trade Advisor, Eastern Africa and Indian Ocean Islands

Fri, 26 Jul 2024 12:51:10 +0000

Overview of position The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) Secretariat is the sole organization in the continent, legally established & mandated to handle the rules of trade between African countries. At the core is the implementation of the agreement establishing the AfCFTA (thereafter “AfCFTA agreement”), negotiated, signed & ratified by the state parties. The goal is to ensure that trade is conducted smoothly, predictably & as freely as possible across the continent. The AfCFTA Secretariat, which is headquartered in Accra, Ghana at the Africa trade house, was established in February 2020 following the election of its first Secretary General. The AfCFTA agreement was signed at an extraordinary session of the assembly of the African Union (AU) in Kigali, Rwanda on 21 March 2018. The agreement sets out a continental system of trade rules, acts as a platform for negotiating trade protocols, facilitates the settlement of disputes between state parties & monitors the implementation of the AfCFTA agreement. Furthermore, the AfCFTA agreement is a framework agreement, with comprehensive coverage of trade in goods, trade in services, investment, competition policy, intellectual property rights, women & youth in trade & digital trade as well as Rules & procedures for the settlement of disputes. The Regional Economic Communities (RECs) have a very important role to play in the advancement of the Africa’s integration agenda & in particular the AfCFTA. The agreement recognizes the RECs as building blocks for the AfCFTA, which is expected to build on the progress that had been achieved by the RECs. The AfCFTA Secretariat is therefore expected to work with the RECs in the implementation of the AfCFTA. The 33rd ordinary session of the Assembly of Heads of State of the AU held in February 2020 requested the AfCFTA Secretariat, AU Commission & the RECs to develop a framework of collaboration before the start of trading under the AfCFTA & submit a substantive progress report on the matter. In January 2017, the ordinary session of the AU also directed that there should be effective collaboration & a clear division of labour between the AU, REC's / Regional Mechanisms (RMs) & member states, in line with the principle of subsidiarity. Therefore, the need to establish a clear & effective division of labour is necessitated by the need for AfCFTA Secretariat & other allied institutions, in particular the RECs, to work together in every area of integration based on their respective competences so as to remove overlaps & duplication. This ensures the delineation of responsibilities within each area or sector of integration based on subsidiarity. It is against this background that the AfCFTA Secretariat seeks to engage the services of a Regional Trade Advisor – Eastern Africa & Indian Ocean Islands to support the development of region specific strategy to enhance the effective collaboration between the AfCFTA Secretariat & the Eastern Africa region to implement the AfCFTA agreement. Role objectives The Regional Trade Advisor – Eastern Africa & Indian Ocean Islands is to support the development of region specific strategy to enhance the effective collaboration between the AfCFTA Secretariat & the Eastern Africa region.

ToR TO CONDUCT RESEARCH ON THE IMPACT OF TORTURE ON WOMEN, GIRLS, AND WOMEN HUMAN RIGHTS DEFENDERS

Fri, 26 Jul 2024 12:49:04 +0000

Introduction The Independent Medical Legal Unit (IMLU) is a governance, health, and human rights non-governmental organization. Our work is fostered by a holistic approach that includes litigation, medical and psycho-social rehabilitation, socio-economic empowerment, oversight of government compliance with human rights obligations, and advocacy of political, legal, and institutional reforms that promote accountability, healing, and justice. Over the last three decades, the organization has supported more than 6,000 victims of torture, and cruel, degrading, and inhumane treatments. We have a national presence of over 300 professionals: doctors, trauma counsellors, advocates, human rights monitors, and journalists. During this period, IMLU women girls and women human rights defenders have continuously faced unprecedented challenges in the fight against sexual violence including security risks. Background In the recent days, Kenya has experienced widespread protests and demonstrations across different Counties with Kenyans presenting their views and petitions targeting different offices in the government. The most current protest in the country was led by the youth famously known as Gen Z, to protest against the 2024 finance bill. IMLU witnessed gross human rights violations including the use of excessive force against peaceful protesters, arbitrary arrests, extrajudicial killings and enforced disappearances. All these forms of torture have led to the loss of life, serious injuries, trauma, fear, and anxiety among Kenyans. Women, girls, and women human rights defenders have been adversely affected by the occurrences witnessed during this period. Women, girls, and women human rights defenders often encounter heightened security risks, including threats of violence, harassment, and sexual assault, particularly in volatile environments during freedom of assembly events. Instances of gender bias and discrimination from authorities and community members further hinder their ability to gather information and gain cooperation. Additionally, the psychological toll of documenting and responding to gross human rights violations is especially pronounced for these women, particularly when dealing with cases of extrajudicial executions. The objective of the Consultancy The overall objective of this short-term consultancy is to conduct researchon the impact of Torture on Women and Girls in Kenya. The findings of this research should inform our programming and ensure that our interventions are relevant and survivor-centered. Specific Objectives: To assess the prevalence and types of torture experienced by women, girls, and women human rights defenders To analyze the physical, psychological, and social impacts of torture on women, girls, and women human rights defenders To evaluate the effectiveness of existing legal and support mechanisms in preventing and response to torture To identify the gaps in the current response mechanisms and provide recommendations for improving protection and support to women, girls and women human rights defenders. Scope of Work The consultant will be expected to conduct comprehensive research on the impact of torture to women, girls, and women human rights defenders with a case study for Nairobi and Kisumu counties. From our data base, we have documented high numbers of human rights violations in these counties hence informing our targeting. Women bear the burden of human rights violations following death, abductions, torture, or even long-term injuries to the victims and survivors. The consultant will document the short-term and long-term impacts of torture on survivors including the health consequences, psychological trauma, and social stigmatization. The consultant will also be expected to review the national and international legal frameworks related to the prevention of torture and the protection of women and girls. The availability and effectiveness of the support services including medical, psychological, legal, and social support will also be assessed. The consultant will further propose actionable recommendations for policymakers, civil society organizations, and other stakeholders to enhance protection and support for survivors.

Comprehensive interim report including preliminary findings and issues encountered and recommendations. Final Research Report incorporating all the feedback from key stakeholders.

Tchad-Chef de Projet -Nutrition

Fri, 26 Jul 2024 10:02:53 +0000

Job Title Chef de Projet - Nutrition Code SR-31-9437 Deadline 19/08/2024 Country Tchad Duty Station Bol avec des missions sporadiques à Ndjamena (Tchad) Type of duty station Non-family duty station Starting date 01/09/2024 Contract duration 6 mois Reporting to Coordinateur des Programmes Supervision of 6 staff nationaux General context of the project Sur le plan sécuritaire, le Tchad est de jour en jour plus affecté par l´insécurité due à l’activisme des groupes armés non étatiques (GANE). Les attaques des villages par les GANE depuis la crise de Boko haram en 2014 s’est poursuivi jusqu’en 2020. De même les opérations militaires de riposte menées par l´armée tchadienne et les forces multinationales mixtes (FMM) affectent la stabilité de la zone du lac Tchad. Dans les départements de Fouli, Kaya et Mamdi la volatilité du contexte sécuritaire laisse envisager une détérioration de la situation humanitaire et de nouveaux mouvements pendulaires. En effet les populations se sont déplacées pour se soustraire de la violence et des exactions perpétrées par des groupes armés non étatiques qui ont rendu leurs villages d’origine insécurisés. Cet environnement délétère constitue un facteur aggravant de la situation des déplacés internes. Ceux-ci connaissent tout au long de leur fuite pour un lieu sûr des situations de violence généralisée, de violation des droits humains telles que les violences notamment basées sur le genre, les séparations forcées des familles et la perte des biens et moyens de subsistance. Ces violations soulèvent des facteurs de vulnérabilités à différents niveaux : les femmes, les enfants et les jeunes qui se déplacent disposent de moins de ressources et se retrouvent dans l'obligation de trouver des moyens de subsistance alternatifs. Certains hommes sont ciblés par des groupes armés et sont obligés de se cacher et de rester séparés de leurs familles alors que les enfants et les jeunes sont exposés au risque accru d’enrôlement dans les groupes armés. INTERSOS va développer une approche intégrée des actions de santé, nutrition et protection en vue de donner une réponse holistique d’urgence aux bénéficiaires dans le but de contribuer à la réduction de la vulnérabilité, de la morbidité et de la mortalité des groupes les plus vulnérables, incluant les enfants de moins de 5 ans, adolescents déplacés et séparés de leurs familles, les femmes enceintes et allaitantes et les personnes plus âgées. Cette action vise à contribuer à l’amélioration des conditions de vie des personnes déplacées en priorité et aussi des populations hôtes. Il a pour ambition également de prendre le relai des initiatives amorcées en urgence par le projet RRRM au Lac dans le but non seulement de les renforcer mais également de poursuivre vers une autonomisation de ces communautés afin d’amener celle – ci à s’auto prendre en charge pour à terme se passer de l’assistance. Pour ce faire, elle se propose d’apporter des réponses intégrées, aux problèmes de santé, de nutrition et de protection des populations cibles. En effet les 15 Évaluations Rapides de protection conduite de juillet 2020 à Décembre 2020 auxquelles se joignent l’évaluation de protection conduite en novembre 2020 dans 30 sites de déplacées internes répartis dans les départements de Kaya, Mamdi et Fouli prouvent que les PDI qui déjà étaient structurellement vulnérables par la situation socioéconomique difficile du pays, sont en train de voir leurs vulnérabilités s’aggraver de jour en jour.

Special Notice • The appointment/assignment is through 31 December 2024. The selected candidate is expected to start as soon as possible. • A current staff member who holds a fixed-term, permanent or continuing appointment may apply for temporary positions no more than one level above his or her current grade. However, a current staff member who holds an appointment at the G-6 or G-7 level may also apply to temporary positions in the Professional category up to and including the P-3 level, subject to meeting all eligibility and other requirements for the position. A staff member holding a temporary appointment shall be regarded as an external candidate when applying for other positions, and may apply for other temporary positions at any level, subject to section 5.7 below and staff rule 4.16 (b) (ii). Therefore, a staff member holding a temporary appointment in the General Service or related categories may only apply to positions within those categories. For full information on eligibility requirements, please refer to section 5 of ST/AI/2010/4Rev.1 on Temporary Appointments. In its resolution 66/234, the General Assembly further "stressed that the Secretary-General should not recur to the practice of temporarily filling posts in the Professional and higher categories with General Service staff members who have not passed the General Service to Professional category examination other than on an exceptional basis, and requests the Secretary-General to ensure that temporary occupation of such posts by the General Service staff shall not exceed a period of one year, effective 1 January 2013…" Consequently, eligible candidates in the General Service or related categories for temporary job openings in the Professional category that have not passed the competitive examination may be selected only on an exceptional basis endorsed by the Office of Human Resources Management where no other suitable candidate could be identified. • Upon separation from service, including, but not limited to, expiration or termination of, or resignation from, a fixed-term, continuing or permanent appointment, a former staff member will be ineligible for re-employment on the basis of a temporary appointment for a period of 31 days following the separation. In the case of separation from service on retirement, a former staff member will be ineligible for re-employment for a period of three months following the separation. This equally applies, mutatis mutandis, with respect to a former or current staff member who has held or holds an appointment in another entity applying the United Nations Staff Regulations and Rules and who applies for a temporary position with the Secretariat. • Retirees above the mandatory age of separation who wish to be considered for the current temporary job opening must indicate the reason for their last separation as "retirement." Such retirees shall not be employed by the Organization, unless (a) the operational requirements of the Organization cannot be met by staff members who are qualified and available to perform the required functions; and (b) the proposed employment would not adversely affect the career development or redeployment opportunities of other staff members and represents both a cost-effective and operationally sound solution to meet the needs of the service. • While this temporary assignment may provide the successful applicant with an opportunity to gain new work experience, the selection for this position is for a limited period and has no bearing on the future incumbency of the post. An external candidate selected for this position is bound by the prevailing condition of the staff selection system under ST/AI/2010/3, as amended, and ST/AI/2010/4/Rev.1. A staff member holding a temporary appointment who is recruited in the Professional and above categories on a temporary appointment, and placed on a position authorized for one year or longer may not apply for or be reappointed to his/her current position within six months of the end of his/her current service. This provision does not apply to staff members holding temporary appointments and placed on positions authorized for one year or more in duty stations authorized for peacekeeping operations or special political missions. • The expression "Internal candidates", shall mean staff members who have been recruited after a competitive examination under staff rule 4.16 or after the advice of a central review body under staff rule 4.15. • Please note that candidates will be required to meet the requirements of Article 101, paragraph 3, of the Charter as well as the requirements of the position. The United Nations is committed to the highest standards of efficiency, competence and integrity for all its human tesources, including but not limited to respect for international human rights and humanitarian law.

For more details on the administration of temporary appointments please refer to ST/AI/2010/4/Rev.1. • The Staff Regulations, Staff Rules and administrative issuances governing staff appointments can be viewed at: http://www.un.org/hr_handbook/English• Staff members of the United Nations common system organizations who will reach the mandatory age of separation or retirement within the duration of the current temporary need period are not eligible to apply. • Staff members are not eligible to apply for the current temporary job opening if they are unable to serve the specified duration of temporary need before reaching the mandatory age of separation. Submitting an application or selection for the current temporary job opening does not delay or increase the mandatory age of separation. United Nations Considerations According to article 101, paragraph 3, of the Charter of the United Nations, the paramount consideration in the employment of the staff is the necessity of securing the highest standards of efficiency, competence, and integrity. Candidates will not be considered for employment with the United Nations if they have committed violations of international human rights law, violations of international humanitarian law, sexual exploitation, sexual abuse, or sexual harassment, or if there are reasonable grounds to believe that they have been involved in the commission of any of these acts. The term “sexual exploitation” means any actual or attempted abuse of a position of vulnerability, differential power, or trust, for sexual purposes, including, but not limited to, profiting monetarily, socially or politically from the sexual exploitation of another. The term “sexual abuse” means the actual or threatened physical intrusion of a sexual nature, whether by force or under unequal or coercive conditions. The term “sexual harassment” means any unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature that might reasonably be expected or be perceived to cause offence or humiliation, when such conduct interferes with work, is made a condition of employment or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment, and when the gravity of the conduct warrants the termination of the perpetrator’s working relationship. Candidates who have committed crimes other than minor traffic offences may not be considered for employment.

Programme Officer (Return and Reintegration) (P3) Dakar, Senegal

Thu, 25 Jul 2024 21:32:44 +0000

Position Title: Programme Officer (Return and Reintegration) Duty Station: Dakar, Senegal Classification: Professional Staff, Grade P3 Type of Appointment: Fixed term, one year with possibility of extension Estimated Start Date: As soon as possible Closing Date: 06 August 2024 Established in 1951, IOM is a Related Organization of the United Nations, and as the leading UN agency in the field of migration, works closely with governmental, intergovernmental and non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants. IOM is committed to a diverse and inclusive work environment. Applications are welcome from first- and second-tier candidates, particularly qualified female candidates as well as applications from the non-represented member countries of IOM. For all IOM vacancies, applications from qualified and eligible first-tier candidates are considered before those of qualified and eligible second-tier candidates in the selection process. For the purpose of this vacancy, the following are considered first-tier candidates: Internal candidates Candidates from the following non-represented member states: Antigua and Barbuda; Barbados; Cabo Verde; Comoros; Congo (the); Cook Islands; Guinea-Bissau; Holy See; Iceland; Kiribati; Lao People's Democratic Republic (the); Latvia; Madagascar; Marshall Islands; Micronesia (Federated States of); Namibia; Nauru; Palau; Saint Kitts and Nevis; Samoa; Sao Tome and Principe; Solomon Islands; Suriname; The Bahamas; Tonga; Tuvalu; Vanuatu Second tier candidates include: All external candidates, except candidates from non-represented member states. Context: Migrants face extreme risks along the Atlantic/Western and Central Mediterranean Migration Routes. Crossing the Mediterranean is by far the deadliest route, with over 28,547 missing migrants recorded since 2014, in addition to those who perish along the desert. Migrants also face other significant protection risks, including violence, exploitation, and abuse at the hands of smugglers, traffickers, and others. Conflicts along these migratory routes (e.g., Southern Libya and Northern Mali) compound these risks. To meet these challenges IOM, with support from the European Union (EU), launched the Migrant Protection, Return and Reintegration Programme for Sub-Saharan Africa (MPRR-SSA) in 2022 in 16 countries (Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chad, Côte d'Ivoire, Ethiopia, the Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Sudan, and Somalia). The programme aims, through a rights-based approach, to provide protection and assistance along the migratory routes, provide voluntary return to countries of origin and sustainable reintegration support for migrants in Sub-Saharan Africa. Building upon the experience and lessons learned under the EU-IOM Joint Initiative for Migrant Protection and Reintegration and its Individual Measure, the MPRR-SSA programme follows a route-based, protection-centred approach to support migrants in situations of vulnerability along the Atlantic/Western and Central Mediterranean Migration Routes in Sub-Saharan Africa with assistance, including vulnerability assessments, assisted voluntary return, and individual reintegration support. Individual reintegration assistance focuses on providing timely and tailored support to address potential situations of vulnerability and individual needs in the short- to mid-term, along economic, social, and psychosocial dimensions. To guarantee ownership and sustainability, the MPRR-SSA ensures continuity of care and aims at preventing protection gaps by optimizing stakeholders’ engagement and active participation. It relies on the structures established or reinforced with the support of the EU-IOM Joint Initiative such as technical working groups and national referral mechanisms, under the leadership of government counterparts. The programme also leverages a whole-of-government and whole-of-society approach to not only cater for returnees’ needs, but also consider the potential contributions of reintegration to sustainable development and vice-versa. The programme interventions play a crucial role in enhancing overall migration governance and tackling social, psychosocial, and economic obstacles in key areas of return. By doing so, the MPRR-SSA contributes significantly to the attainment of national development objectives and the Sustainable Development Goals. Under the overall supervision of the Senior Regional Coordinator and the direct supervision of the Regional Programme Coordinator, and in close coordination with the MPRR Return and Reintegration Officer at IOM Headquarters, the Programme Officer (Return and Reintegration) will be responsible for the oversight and coordination of the Return and Reintegration activities of the Migrant Protection, Return and Reintegration Programme for Sub-Saharan Africa (MPRR-SSA).

Endline Evaluation Consultant, THRIVE at Catholic Relief Services (CRS)

Thu, 25 Jul 2024 20:57:49 +0000

Task Catholic Relief Services (CRS) seeks an independent consultant to carry out the end line evaluation of one of its programs in Northeast Nigeria. Location The end line evaluation is to be conducted in Maiduguri, Borno State in the month of October, 2024 Background CRS leads the consortium implementing THRIVE, a two-year integrated multi-sectoral program from May 2022 to May 2024 that targets seven communities in three wards, Mashamari, Dusuman and Mairi, of Jere local government area (LGA) in Maiduguri , Borno State. THRIVE is funded by the United States Agency for International Development ( USAID) Bureau of Humanitarian Assistance ( BHA). The consortium partnership also comprises Mercy Corps (MC), the Justice, Development and Peace Commission (JDPC), Salient Humanitarian Organisation (SHO) and Women in New Nigeria (WINN). As part of its deliverables to USAID/BHA, CRS intends to conduct an end line evaluation for THRIVE and submit a final evaluation report to the donor THRIVE Project THRIVE delivers an integrated and coordinated package of immediate lifesaving, life-sustaining, and life-building support to vulnerable households (HH) in food assistance ( FA), nutrition, shelter, water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), protection, agriculture, and economic recovery and market systems ( ERMS). THRIVE explicitly aims to reduce vulnerability in Jere by layering lifesaving, life-sustaining, and life-building interventions informed using an area-based approach (ABA) to minimize inefficiencies and build synergies. The interventions target host communities, returnees, and internally displaced persons (IDPs) impacted by the violent insurgency in Borno State. THRIVE is expected to reach approximately 120,000 (72,000 female, 48,000 male) unique participants over the two-year project lifespan, spanning ten sectors. THRIVE is implemented across seven communities in the three wards of Jere LGA, that is Dusuman, Mairi, and Mashamari. Purpose of the evaluation The project intends to conduct a multi-sectoral endline study to measure project indicators at the conclusion of the program. This study will provide a comprehensive assessment of the project's effect and the extent to which it has achieved its goals across the different sectors. The primary objective of the THRIVE evaluation is to assess the progress and effect of the project throughout its entire lifecycle, spanning from inception in May 2022 to close out in December 2024. This comprehensive evaluation will include an analysis of changes in food security status, change in hunger scores, the adoption of food security coping strategies by communities, enhancements in the nutritional well-being of malnourished children who have received support, and the retention of knowledge, practices, and skills resulting from training, sensitization, and counseling sessions promoting optimal MIYCN-E practices. Furthermore, the evaluation will consider improvements in the utilization of water and sanitation facilities, alterations in hygiene behavior and practices, shelter, ERMS, livelihoods, and agricultural practices. The evaluation will also investigate the relevance and effectiveness of adaptations and innovations made by the program during the course of its implementation. Methodology of the evaluation The endline will provide post-intervention measurement for THRIVE’s ITT indicators and comprehensive information on HH characteristics. The endline will also provide end value measurement for resilience-related indicators tracked by CRS. The evaluation will use a mixed method approach: Conduct two participant based HH surveys, one among registered participants for food assistance and the other among nutrition and WASH participants’ Conduct one population-based HH survey for the nutrition and WASH sectors maintaining the necessary level of precision to detect the change targeted for the relevant WASH and nutrition indicators; Conduct a secondary analysis of the registration data for MPCA, agriculture and ERMS, shelter and settlements interventions; Hold focus group discussions (FGD) with relevant stakeholders and implementers; Hold key informant interviews (KII) with local government stakeholders, local leaders and other community stakeholders. Evaluation team composition and requirements The evaluation is expected to be conducted by at least two external evaluators: a lead evaluator and co-evaluator(s).

Withdrawals and Changes You may freely withdraw or change your proposal at any time prior to the submission deadline by written notice to the IUCN Contact. However, in order to reduce the risk of fraud, no changes or withdrawals will be accepted after the submission deadline. Evaluation of proposals Completeness IUCN will first check your proposal for completeness. Incomplete proposals will not be considered further. Technical Evaluation Scoring Method Your proposal will be assigned a score from 0 to 10 for each of the technical evaluation criteria, such that ‘0’ is low and ‘10’ is high. Minimum Quality Thresholds Proposals that receive a score of ‘0’ for any of the criteria will not be considered further. Technical Score Your score for each technical evaluation criterion will be multiplied with the respective relative weight (see Section 4.4) and these weighted scores added together to give your proposal’s overall technical score. Financial Evaluation and Financial Scores The financial evaluation will be based upon the full total price you submit. Your financial proposal will receive a score calculated by dividing the lowest financial proposal that has passed the minimum quality thresholds (see Section 5.2.2) by the total price of your financial proposal. Thus, for example, if your financial proposal is for a total of USD 100 and the lowest financial proposal is USD 80, you will receive a financial score of 80/100 = 80% Total Score Your proposal’s total score will be calculated as the weighted sum of your technical score and your financial score. The relative weights will be: Technical: 70% Financial: 30% Thus, for example, if your technical score is 83% and your financial score is 77%, you will receive a total score of 83 * 70% + 77 * 30% = 58.1% + 23.1% = 81.2%.

About the Project The Shared Waters Cooperation Facility is a global convening platform that brings together diverse partners, inter-governmental organisations and technical and knowledge partners to coordinate and ensure more effective, consistent and accelerated support for transboundary water cooperation. The purpose of the Facility is to: Empower cooperation on shared waters and support stakeholders to navigate and negotiate agreements for water resource protection and management Provide and source appropriate expertise that can facilitate dialogue and joint action where cooperation has slowed or stopped Respond to the needs of stakeholders through matching services to problem solving, connecting solutions, and supporting learning to improve performance Description of the Assignment Located in southeastern Africa, the Buzi-Save-Pungwe basin is undergoing dynamic changes that are reshaping its landscape and introducing new dimensions in water management. As population growth, urbanization, and climate change transform the basin, new stakeholders, including urban centers, industries, and conservation organizations, are emerging. These changes highlight the need for innovative approaches to transboundary water management that can accommodate the diverse interests of stakeholders while ensuring the sustainability of the basin's resources. Implemented by IUCN and regional partners, the BRIDGE program aims to address these challenges by facilitating cooperation, strengthening inter-governmental capacities, and creating spaces for dialogue and agreements. As part of the BRIDGE intervention in the Buzi-Save-Pungwe basin, water sharing agreements were concluded in the basin, and a river basin organisation (BUPUSACOM) was formed in July 2023. The new RBO will establish effective, inclusive transboundary interventions that will focus on climate resilience, groundwater conservation, flood and droung monitoring and environmental water management. In order to achieve such interventions, consistent resource mobilisation is required. As an identified partner of choice to the new RBO, IUCN committed to supporting the resourse mobilisation efforts of BUPUSACOM.

Consultancy Service (FIRM): Development of Documentaries on Conserving Aquatic Biodiversity in the Context of African Blue Economy Strategy

Wed, 24 Jul 2024 10:44:18 +0000

Background The African Union Inter–African Bureau for Animal Resources (AU-IBAR) is a specialized technical office within the Department of Agriculture, Rural Development, Blue Economy, and Sustainable Environment (DARBE). AU-IBAR is mandated to coordinate the development of animal resources in Africa, aiming to eliminate hunger and poverty by supporting and empowering AU Member States and Regional Economic Communities (RECs). Animal resources play a significant role globally. Established in 1951 to study and combat rinderpest in Africa, AU-IBAR now addresses all aspects of animal resources, including livestock, fisheries, aquaculture and wildlife, across the continent. It occupies a unique strategic position by working at both continental and regional levels, with RECs as key partners. Recently, AU-IBAR has been charged with the responsibility to support the implementation of Africa Blue Economy Strategy.AU-IBAR operates based on the principle of subsidiarity, ensuring that animal resource activities are managed at the most local level possible. It takes responsibility for areas that national and regional bodies cannot handle or where AU-IBAR has a clear strategic advantage. One of its key focus areas is developing and promoting unified African positions in the global animal resources arena. Context AU-IBAR is implementing the 'Conserving Aquatic Biodiversity in the African Blue Economy' Project (2021-2024), funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA). The project aims to enhance the policy environment, regulatory frameworks and institutional capacities of African Union Member States and Regional Economic Communities in the utilization, conservation, and protection of aquatic biodiversity within the framework of the Africa Blue Economy Strategy. To raise awareness about the project's anticipated deliverables, AU-IBAR commissioned a documentary in 2022. This documentary highlighted several key aspects of the Conserving Aquatic Biodiversity Project, including an introduction to conserving aquatic biodiversity within the Africa Blue Economy, the evolution of the Blue Economy Strategy, and the five thematic areas of the Africa Blue Economy Strategy. It also covered the benefits of mangroves as ecological niche for vulnerable life history stages of commercially important fisheries species hence contributing immensely to fish production and conservation, climate change mitigation, within the framework of the Mikoko Pamoja mangrove conservation initiative; also the documentary addressed the impact of illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing on aquatic biodiversity (including fisheries) and the environment; strengthening regional Monitoring, Control, and Surveillance (MCS) systems for combating fisheries crimes, protection of aquatic biodiversity and environment. As the documentary was developed at the onset of the project when the status of implementation of activities was very low, there is now a need to highlight the transformative actions, lessons learned and opportunities after nearly three years of implementation through the creation of another documentary. This new documentary will aim to raise awareness about the importance of conserving aquatic biodiversity and environment, key drivers of change, and the challenges and opportunities in management of aquatic resources through the Conserving Aquatic Biodiversity in the Africa Blue Economy Project. To facilitate the development of this documentary, AU-IBAR is seeking a Videography Firm to assist with creating videos that cover these aspects. Specific deliverables are listed in the sections below. Objective of the Assignment The overall objective of this assignment is to support efforts in conserving aquatic biodiversity in the African continent by capturing and disseminating video content from the Conserving Aquatic Biodiversity in the Africa Blue Economy Project.

Market analysis to inform local procurement of commodities-Cameroon

Wed, 24 Jul 2024 10:40:56 +0000

Implementer : Nascent Solutions Inc. (Nascent) Funder: United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Location: Cameroon Period for the evaluation: July- September 2024 Introduction Nascent Solutions, Inc. (Nascent) is implementing the McGovern-Dole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition Project (MGD-FFE) to improve the literacy and nutrition of school-age children in 260 schools in the Adamaoua, East, North, and Northwest regions of Cameroon. The program will provide school meals to students using US-donated and locally procured commodities. The US-donated commodities will include rice, beans, and corn-soy blends, while the locally procured commodities will include biofortified maize and beans, palm oil, and chicken eggs. Nascent Solutions Inc. seeks a consultant or consulting agency to conduct a market analysis to enhance understanding of the local supply and demand of the needed food commodities and the potential impact of local procurement on market prices for local communities. The results will inform Nascent Solutions’ LRP strategy or operational plan. Background The LRP component presents a market opportunity for local biofortified maize, beans, palm oil, and chicken egg producers. Nascent Solutions seeks to understand how these commodities will be reliably supplied or obtained to support the school feeding program. Nascent Solution is also aware that buying large commodities from the local market can cause price increases or shortages for local communities in the short run. We consider that the US-donated commodities take-home ratios provided to students will be small amounts and negligible to affect local commodity prices. The same can’t be assumed for the commodities procured locally. The consultant will provide an in-depth analysis of the supply chain of the commodities, including production trends and key actors, and offer recommendations on how required quantities can be reliably procured while avoiding causing harm to the food security of local communities. Purpose of the Market Analysis To understand the supply and market impact of local and regional procurement of biofortified maize and beans, palm oil, and chicken eggs (from North, Northwest, Adamawa, and East regions of Cameroon) to inform the design of an LRP plan that enhances income generation for the poor, especially women. Objectives Identify and analyze local and regional production capacity and seasonality of maize, beans, palm oil, and chicken eggs against the demand for the school feeding program commodities. Identify the key players in the supply chain of the commodities, including aggregation and value addition points/actors -local and regional Establish the five-year local annual price trends and price elasticity of commodity demand and discuss any potential adverse effects on the local market. Identify challenges, if any, that might limit the ability to successfully/reliably acquire required stocks of commodities locally and regionally Recommend a procurement plan that enhances income generation for the smallholder farmers, farmer cooperatives, and SMEs while minimizing potential adverse effects, if any, on local markets. Expected Outputs of the Consultancy The successful applicant is expected to produce the following as the Activity Deliverables: Inception report outlining the methodology and implementation plan of how the applicant will approach the consultancy Technical report from the analysis PowerPoint Presentation (PPT) Research instruments, including survey forms, data, and data analysis codes Time Frame The entire work is expected to be completed within 25 days (August 10 - 31st, 2024) from the signing of the contract. This period includes fieldwork and reporting. Duty Station Yaoundé travels to all project regions.
