Background
Kenya has an established body of research on refugee livelihoods, labour markets, market systems and economic inclusion. To avoid duplication, this assignment will not undertake a new broad market assessment; rather, it will critically assess and validate existing evidence against the current operating context. We seek a consultant to test that evidence against the 2026 context, fill critical gaps with targeted primary research, and translate findings into clear, evidence-scored livelihood pathways.
Core question: What can Angaza confidently rely on from existing evidence about young women’s economic opportunities in the target locations; what has changed; what remains uncertain; and which economic pathways should Angaza prioritise?
CONSULTANT LEAD REQUIREMENTS
• Postgraduate degree in economics, labour economics, development studies, business, livelihoods or a related field.
• At least 8 years’ experience in market systems, livelihoods and economic inclusion research, including validating or synthesising evidence across multiple locations.
• Proven experience in labour-market and value-chain analysis, refugee economic inclusion in Kenya/East Africa, and gender-responsive research.
• Strong mixed-methods and data-analysis skills; ability to translate evidence into practical programme and investment recommendations.
• Fluency in English and Swahili; working knowledge of Arabic and French desirable. Certification as a data processor with the ODPC.
