Social Impact is a global development management consulting firm. We provide monitoring, evaluation, strategic planning, and capacity building services to advance development effectiveness.
Project Objective: USAID Kenya and East Africa (KEA) have contracted Social Impact to conduct a mid-term performance evaluation of SCORE, a five-year activity that seeks to mitigate conflict and violent extremism (VE) in six counties in Kenya’s Coast region (Kilifi, Kwale, Lamu, Mombasa, Taita Taveta and Tana River counties).
Since 2014 the implementing partner Act! has worked with local civil society organizations (CSOs) to strengthen community resilience against conflict and VE through various approaches such as interfaith dialogues and counter messaging, empowering women and girls to address VE and conflict, advocating for the strengthening and harmonization of policies on CVE and land to mitigate land conflicts, and youth empowerment by expanding economic opportunities and encouraging civic participation to reduce the allure of financial gain from VE and violence.
The purpose of this evaluation is to assess the performance of the SCORE program by capturing emerging results against the activity objectives, gauge its overall effectiveness and sustainability to date, and identify lessons learned and best practices. The evaluation will contribute to a base of evidence to determine which kinds of CVE interventions are most effective, in what combinations in a given context, and which can and should be scaled up.
Position Description: SI is seeking an individual to fulfill the role of a CVE expert on this evaluation. The CVE expert will provide technical inputs into the evaluation methodology, develop the data collection strategy, instruments, and protocols; participate in data collection and compilation; participate in key informant interviews and focus group discussions; conduct data analysis; and contribute to a draft and final report.
The expected start date is July 15, 2018 and we anticipate this position will require between 34 to 36 days of LOE between July and November 2018. The expert will adhere to SI’s quality assurance standards throughout the evaluation.
This is a part-time position reporting to the U.S.-based SI Technical Director and working closely with the SI management team, as well as two other evaluation team members with conflict and/or performance evaluation expertise. This position includes fieldwork in Kenya taking place in August/September 2018.
