Part of the Youth Participation and Employment (YPE) program

Introduction
The Youth Participation and Employment (YPE) program addresses the crucial challenges of youth economic exclusion and lack of civic inclusion of youth. Funded by the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA), YPE is part of MFA’s ‘Danish-Arab Partnership Programme’ (DAPP). Established in 2003, the vision of DAPP is to promote a democratic, prosperous and stable Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through partnerships between Danish and Arab actors. The YPE focuses on involving young people in their countries’ development and strengthening employment opportunities and entrepreneurship in inclusive ways. Youth participation is crucial for reducing inequalities as well as for including young women, young people from rural and urban areas, youth with disabilities and other marginalized groups of youth.

To obtain a more diversified and complete overview of formal and informal youth-led groups, organisations, platforms and initiatives relating to economic participation of youth in the MENA region, the YPE program is embarking on a youth mapping research, as set out in the Terms of Reference. To lead the mapping process, and coordinate and consolidate the research processes in the four countries involved (Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, and Tunisia), we are now looking for a Youth Research Coordinator for the period November 2020 – March 2021.

Purpose and objectives
The purpose of the Youth Research Coordinator consultancy position is to lead and coordinate the implementation of the Youth Mapping, in order to ensure that the process runs smoothly and reaches its objectives. In particular, the objectives of the position are to:

Coordinate the national processes in all individual countries involved: Working closely with national research teams, monitor and oversee the national mapping processes, ensuring cohesion between country research teams in terms of approach and findings and keep an overview of the process and outcomes.

Mapping of regional youth groups and actors operating beyond borders: Investigation into regional youth groups and actors operating beyond borders.

Consolidate the findings: in consultation with country research teams synthesise and make sense of the research findings, to arrive at one overall synthesis report including overall findings, conclusions and recommendations from across the four countries and regionally.

Identify and document lessons learned on the overall mapping process: light evaluation and assessment of the entire mapping process.

Role and tasks of coordinator

  • Suggest methodologies to incorporate this in the research.
  • Coordinate or carry out the implementation of this methodology.

IV: Consolidate the findings
