  • SayPro Consultancy – Video Series – Digital SRHR Platform

     Background Oxfam is an international confederation counting 17 organizations working together with partners and local communities in more than 90 countries. Oxfam has been working in Iraq since the 1990s with both an expanding and contracting presence. In 2014, Oxfam established its first office in Mosul when the conflict with ISIS began and the country was thrown into a new humanitarian crisis, in an already fragile context. In 2021, Oxfam is amongst the largest NGOs operating in the country, with nine offices and almost 200 employees. Oxfam in Iraq's strategy is shaped around 3 key pillars 1) Humanitarian response 2) Governance and 3) Equality. Within each of these pillars, intervention covers the following sectors: Emergency Food Security and Vulnerable Livelihoods, Water and Sanitation and Hygiene, Gender and Protection, Emergency lifesaving support, and Local Humanitarian Leadership. In this framework, Oxfam in Iraq is implementing the Masarouna “Our Pathway” project which aimes to support young people’s voice to achieve their Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR). Masarouna is now working on developing the SRHR platform and its branding identity with alignment with the project objectives. Masarouna Program In a context where securing Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) is challenging, the Masarouna program will mobilize the power of young people (YP), for collective action to support their fight for greater freedom of choice and respect for their SRHR. The program is implemented in six countries/territories. Masarouna identifies two main interlinked pathways to achieve the desired change. Pathway 1 is focused on the direct influencing of decision-makers and society to address inadequate legislation and harmful traditional social and cultural norms through strengthened youth engagement. Pathway 2 is focused on strengthening civil society, reclaiming civic space and formation of new partnerships and alliances. The objective of Masarouna in Iraq is to promote the access of YP to their SRHR, in an inclusive society where YP’s voices are listened to. The project is aligned with the Iraqi National Strategy development plan by promoting meaningful youth participation and development. The project focuses on raising awareness around SRHR and harmful practices, to promote a society where young people can develop healthily and safely. Oxfam Masarouna is developing a digital platform set to be launched in 2022. The purpose of this platform is to provide equal access to SRHR information for Iraqi youth. This platform is currently in development. The objective of the digital SRHR platform is to serve as a knowledge hub for young people on topics related to SRHR to improve their understanding to the concept and to combat misinformation and falsehoods that spread around health issues and stereotypes. The platform will enable YP to access inclusive SRHR information, to be able to interact and discuss SRHR topics in a safe online space and as needed, be referred to SRH services in Iraq. Also, it helps to strengthen civil society to raise public awareness, advocate, and work towards more adequate and comprehensive SRHR services in Iraq. The platform content will be aligned to the following statements of Mission, Vision, Values, and Promises, as stated below: The Platform Audience The platform will have a primary target audience, which is Iraqi Youth from 18-35 years old. As for the secondary target audience, they include public and private health facilities, governmental institutions, influencing decision makers, parents and family Heads of Household, and Digital Media Influencers and Content Creators, all in Iraq. Objectives of the Service Under this assignment Oxfam is seeking to produce a series of videos to introduce the SRHR Platform to its targeted audcine and other groups in Iraq. The objectives of the Video Series are: Announce and celebrate the launching of the SRHR Platform. Share the objective and use of the platform Highlight the most important features of the platform.

  • SayPro Consultancy to Support Media and Construction Labor Teams

     Terms of Reference: Consultancy to Support Media and Construction Labor Teams Almost a quarter of the world’s population lives in substandard shelter, impacting their health and livelihoods and their children’s education. Since 1976, Habitat for Humanity has helped more than 35 million people worldwide improve their shelter conditions. Yet, Habitat’s construction efforts alone cannot keep pace with the massive and growing need. In fact, no response by governments or private philanthropy alone can meet the shelter needs of 1.6 billion people. Habitat for Humanity thus established the Terwilliger Center for Innovation in Shelter to explore strategies for making housing systems work more inclusively for people in need of decent, affordable housing. About This Initiative: The Terwilliger Center strives for transformational innovations for adequate housing at the Base of the Pyramid. The Terwilliger Center’s five Shelter Venture Labs, country-specific programs that function as social innovation platforms and a principal way the center ideates and prototypes novel solutions to the challenge of affordable housing. The center’s innovation process usually starts with a series of unconnected experiments in one or more Labs, which are then brought to the larger cohort of Labs and other teams within the center, to learn from one another. Further experimentation in the Labs and other geographies then takes place as the center strives to standardize the innovation and lay the groundwork for more widescale adoption. Examples of such innovations include ShelterTech (programming to support housing startups and entrepreneurs), housing microfinance, and MicroBuild (programming to catalyze capital for low-income housing finance). Two of the center’s more recent experiments are in the media and housing space, primarily in the Kenya and Philippines Labs, and housing construction labor, in all five Labs. It is these two areas of innovation that the center is now looking for strategies to move out of ideation and prototyping and into a path that holds potential for more wide-scale adoption in other geographies. As a foundational step, the center plans to convene a group of specialists focused on the Media theme and Construction Labor theme, respectively to strategize around standardization and adoption. To that end, we seek a consultant to support each of these themes. Key Responsibilities: We seek a consultant who can work alongside the center’s appointed lead for both of these themes and provide facilitation, coordination, documentation, and administration support. All support will be provided virtually. The candidate will have a strong and readily demonstrated track record of using market systems development methodologies and experience in both affordable housing, media, and construction labor. Experience in the Philippines or Kenya is preferred. * Over a 6-month contract, we estimate the consultant will devote the following hours to this contract: * Coordination of the teams - 30 hours/month * Facilitated team sessions – 10 hours/month * Administration – 20 hours/month * Strategy documentation - 20 hours/month. DELIVERABLES: * Work plan for each theme * Facilitated meetings * Strategy documentation for each theme * Final report             How to apply       To apply please submit a short proposal attn: Sheldon Yoder no later than October 15. The proposal should include an itemized budget, description of relevant experience, and general plans for carrying out the requested activities. Questions are welcome. Please email Sheldon Yoder, syoder@habitat.org.

  • SayPro VSO Ethiopia Consultancy SRH Intersectional Context Analysis

     The ‘Make Way programme’ is a five-year programme (2021-2025), implemented by a consortium consisting of Akina Mama wa Afrika, The Circle of Concerned African Women Theologians, Forum for African Women Educationalists, Liliane Foundation, VSO Netherlands, with Wemos as lead, in partnership with the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It aims to break down barriers to Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) by promoting a new way of considering discrimination through an intersectional lens. The Make Way programme uses an intersectional approach to acknowledge systemic discrimination due to overlapping aspects of a person’s identity (gender, race, economic status, immigration status, national origin, etc) and the subsequent impact on access to SRH services. The Make Way programme is implemented in Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, and Zambia, the ( Eastern and Southern) African region and at the global level. In Ethiopia, the consortium consists of VSO Ethiopia, FAWE Ethiopia and Ipas (partner of Liliane Foundation). On behalf of the Make Way consortium, VSO wishes to conduct a social exclusion, gender and political economy analysis in order to establish the power imbalances that exist in different contexts. This understanding in turn helps VSO to design appropriate interventions that address the power imbalances through empowering those affected by inequalities, exclusion and marginalisation. The analysis will involve reflecting on and mapping the systems of social exclusion and gender inequality and being clear about how the two relate to marginalization and vulnerability. It is also important to understand the context in which the Make Way programme operates, therefore this a nalysis will include examining how political, economic, social and cultural power are distributed, identification of the decisive factors, influential actors and how to engage them to initiate change in improving access and provision of services. Objectives of the Analysis: Identify and analyse the multiple identities and how these affect access to and uptake of SRH services for particularly the marginalized/minoritized youth. Understand and articulate the social, cultural, religion/belief, political, economic, and institutional drivers of this exclusion and why marginalized young people are prevented from realizing their sexual and reproductive health. Identify enablers and obstacles of meaningful youth engagement in inclusive access to SRH among minoritized youth. Identify health financing frameworks and the key power relations and influences, dynamics and trends in health systems, structures and processes related to SRH for minoritized y outh in Ethiopia? What are existing opportunities in Ethiopia for Make Way? Interested parties are requested to apply on-line and upload your expression of interest, which should include the following as part of the same document. (note: the system only allows uploading of one document!) Company/individual profile or CV including 2 references (clients) and 2 samples of similar work recently done Motivation, track record & qualifications for the assignment A comprehensive proposal outlining the proposed methodologies and rationale, choice and design of data collection tools, timelines, roles and responsibilities of personnel involved Sign language capabilities during the data collection process Financial proposal (daily fee, travel costs, snacks for participants, etc) with clear budget lines              How to apply       https://www.aplitrak.com/?adid=bGl6YS5vbGl2ZXIuOTUzMjAuMzgzMEB2c28uYXBsaXRyYWsuY29t

     Request for Proposals 17th September 2022 Programme Articulation & MEAL in the Humanitarian- Development-Peacebuilding (Triple) Nexus Background In the past few years Christian Aid Ireland, in collaboration with the global ‘Peacebuilding and Conflict Prevention’ team, numerous country teams, partner organisations and academic institutions, has seen an increase in Humanitarian-Development-Peacebuilding nexus (HDP nexus) programmes, approaches and thinking. For Christian Aid, working primarily with local partner organisations and networks, the HDP nexus is a natural fit for many of our country programmes. In many of these fragile contexts, communities’ needs include both short-term emergency relief and support for long-term peace and development. The growth of HDP work is mirrored across the sector, in particular since the 2016 World Humanitarian Summit. Despite the rise in HDP nexus thinking and programming, there is not aways consensus on what work qualifies or can accurately be described as ‘working in the HDP nexus’. The nexus is sometimes seen as equivalent to flexible or adaptive programming approaches or conflated with ‘working within’ contexts affected by conflict or being conflict sensitive (rather than conscious and targeted work on building peace). At the same time some programmes are implemented using the HDP nexus approach but are not labelled as such. This has meant it can be difficult to determine the extent to which HDP nexus programming approaches are valuable compared with traditional programming models. In Christian Aid we see the HDP Nexus can be delivered at the country programme or project level: At the project level, HDP nexus creates space to implement humanitarian, development and peacebuilding interventions all in the same locations under one umbrella project – contributing to a collective outcome. It also provides the flexibility to adjust outputs and activities to the context as it changes. At the country programme and strategic levels, the HDP nexus approach aims to align strategies and projects so that they contribute to the same overarching goals and objectives. This includes strengthened collaboration and coordination between CA teams and partners, with each other and with the wider sector to catalyse greater collaboration and build on the complementarities of partners’ work, particularly where intervention geographies intersect or overlap. As a partnershipbased organisation, CA also seeks to support partners to identify areas of potential coordination and navigate sectoral spaces. The HDP nexus should always have a higher/overarching goal which shows the complementarity of how each component contributes to the whole. Christian Aid Ireland Request for Proposals, 17th September 2022 In addition, traditional approaches to conceptualising and managing programmes are not well suited to HDP nexus projects. Artefacts (logical frameworks / Results Frameworks) often articulate outcomes under thematic umbrellas (e.g., ‘resilience’, ‘humanitarian response’, ‘peace and security’ social cohesion, 'livelihoods’) and pre-determined indicators, which can require significant resources to adapt or amend. This undermines the benefit of an approach where the option to adapt both strategy and focus is built in from the outset. Further, project outcomes often focus on key thematic areas related to the HDP nexus but rarely articulate the broader system change that is desired from the HDP approach. How MEAL systems account for this broader change remains relatively unexplored. Most artefacts focus on withinprogramme outputs, outcomes and pre-defined indicators, whereas general literature on HDP nexus MEAL encourages a more systems-aware approach; collaboration, coordination, understanding of context, and hypothesising that benefits from these structural changes will manifest independently of programme-specific timeframes. This has two consequences: - That the models used to frame and conceptualise programmes are misaligned with the value-added of a HDP nexus approach, and thus are suboptimal tools for programme managers and implementers - The communication of value added of a HDP nexus programme to a donor fails to fully reflect the extent of change achieved by building on the mutually reinforcing complementarities of each individual area of work. Our Proposal With this consultancy we seek to explore two separate, but related areas of inquiry: Building on existing CA research (see below) refine a framework to help Christian Aid assess the extent to which a given project/ programme/ office or team is ‘doing’ nexus programming in practice. Subsequently based on this: i. Design a learning approach that will help Christian Aid more systematically learn whether using a HDP nexus approach is valuable. ii. Explore methods and metrics for which we can report the ‘extent’ of HDP nexus practice to donors and other stakeholders. Develop recommendations on the use of programme management and donor-accountability artefacts (Logical Frameworks/ Results Frameworks, Indicators) so that they support, enhance and are coherent with a HDP nexus approach. This should engage with the challenges outlined in ‘1. Background’. Christian Aid resources that we anticipate will inform these deliverables (in addition to external, sectoral literature and experiences): - Christian Aid guidance note on using a ‘HDP/Triple Nexus’ approach - Christian Aid’s HDP Nexus Action Plan - 'Analysing the Integration of Peacebuilding in Humanitarian and Development Programmes in Fragile Contexts' by the Queen's University of Belfast - Christian Aid Ireland’s research on the use of Adaptive Programming - Ongoing research on Christian Aid Burundi’s HDP nexus programme Christian Aid Ireland Request for Proposals, 17th September 2022 3 - Christian A and partner staff experiences in HDP programming Deliverables: In addition to an inception report with refined questions and detailed methodology: - A working paper with evidence-based solutions/ recommendations to the following: o How can Christian Aid better, and more consistently, learn about the benefits (or otherwise) of using a HDP nexus approach (noting that some benefits/ otherwise might materialise outside the scope of a single project, programme or team? o How can Christian Aid better communicate the extent to which a programme or project us taking a HDP nexus approach? o Give the outlined constraints of donor-accountability and programme management artefacts (Results Frameworks, Logical Frameworks, indicators) in a HDP nexus programme, what approaches, alternatives and recommendations can be made so that the artefacts better serve their purpose. The solutions and recommendations should be rooted in an understanding of Christian Aid’s programme environment. Some or all of this working paper will be published to share with the wider sector. - 2 within-Christian Aid seminars to share and discuss findings - Up to 2 sectoral seminars to share and discuss findings1 Methodology: Christian Aid is open to refining the above questions at the commencement of the consultancy and is keen for selected consultants to propose a methodology best suited to address these questions. We anticipate that as well as within-Christian Aid resources the consultants will also engage with external practitioners and stakeholders. While Christian Aid programme staff in country offices will be available for interview and discussion, we are keen that the proposal does not require intensive engagement (i.e., in excess of one day per staff). Consultant Requirements: • Demonstrated experience in HDP/ Nexus programming in varied geographical and institutional contexts • Strong background in MEAL, with ability to think critically about MEAL and programme management systems and approaches • Knowledge of the donor landscape funding HDP Nexus work • Connections with other researchers, institutions working on HDP nexus and knowledge of relevant sectoral literature and partnership • Appreciation for partnership approaches and understanding of how these manifests in programming 1 Logistics for both seminars will be led by Christian Aid Ireland. Christian Aid Ireland Request for Proposals, 17th September 2022 • Excellent communication skills. Ideally fluent in Spanish and French • Willingness to collaborate with Christian Aid and partner staff and ability to hear and engage with their experiences and ideas. 6. Proposals and selection process We hope that this piece of work can be largely completed before end 2022 (although external seminars can occur early 2023). Financial information: The available budget is €13,000. All proposal costs should fall within this including VAT and any expenses. Content of proposals: • A brief outline of the overall approach and proposed methodology, along with rationale for key design decisions • The proposal should be costed in Euro including all fees and VAT. • Proposed timeframe and consultant’s availability • Profile of the proposed consultant/s noting relevant expertise (and including key roles and responsibilities - particularly where there is more than one team member) • Two pieces of work completed by the proposed team, and the Curriculum Vitae for each team member (these will be held in strictest confidence and deleted following procurement process) Submission of proposals: Please submit proposals to Maria Collison (mcollison@christian-aid.org) with the subject line, ‘HDP Nexus consultancy’.
