Job Description

Background

The Danish Refugee Council (DRC), Save the Children International (SCI), International Rescue Committee (IRC), and Organization for Welfare and Development in Action (OWDA) in consortium have begun implementation of a Regional Development and Protection Program (RDPP) with financial support from the European Union in Fafan zone of Somali region particularly in Kebribayah, Awbarre and Sheder refugee camps and their respective host communities.

The overall objective of the RDPP is to ‘create evidence-based, innovative and sustainable development and protection solutions for refugees and their host communities’ in Somali Regional State.

The program includes engagement in education, water, energy, livelihoods, protection and coordination.

Overall, it envisions to achieve improved social cohesion, enhanced livelihoods and employment opportunities, improved protection of vulnerable groups and strengthened capacities of local stakeholders and coordination platforms to cooperate in developing an integrated approach for refugees, host communities and mixed migration flows.

DRC is expected to conduct a study on onward movement, and associated protection risks, in the target area, Fafan Zone.

This study aims to contribute to a better understanding of the local context in relation to migration, its impact on the refugee and host communities and will inform the consortium’s engagement with local government on local economic development (LED) planning as well as with humanitarian and other development programming, aiming to encourage integrated programming for refugees and host communities.

While the above activities have been carried out, the consultant is expected to complete data analysis and report writing to complete the assessment.

In addition, recommendations will be framed to directly contribute to the program – more specifically, towards migration awareness raising, and towards engagement in LED planning.
