Career Opportunity at The Danish Refugee Council (DRC)
3:29:00 PMGist Naija

The Danish Refugee Council (DRC) is a private, independent, humanitarian organization working on all aspects of

the refugee cause in more than twenty five countries throughout the world. The aim of DRC is to protect refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs) against persecution and to promote durable solutions to the problems of forced migration, on the basis of humanitarian principles and human rights. DRC works in accordance with the UN Conventions on Refugees and the Code of Conduct for the ICRC and NGOs in Disaster Relief. The protection and assistance to conflict affected population is provided within a long term, regional and rights based approach in order to constitute a coherent and effective response to the challenges posed by today's conflicts. Assistance consists of relief and other humanitarian aid, rehabilitation, support to return and repatriation as well as promotion of long term solutions to displacement and its causes. In addition, support and capacity building of local and national authorities and NGOs form an integral part of DRC's work.

 

About the Programme

The Danish Refugee Council (DRC) has been operational in West Africa since 1998. Our aim is to contribute to the peace and stabilization, protection and promotion of durable solution to crisis affected populations in the region. The overall strategic objective of the programme is to support peace and stabilization, protect and promote durable solutions to conflict affected populations in Nigeria, Liberia, Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire, Guinée, and Mali on the basis of humanitarian principles and fundamental human rights.

DRC is in the process of opening up a new country programme in Nigeria focusing on responding to the huge humanitarian needs and challenges in the North East of Nigeria. Nigeria's north-east is currently experiencing a significant humanitarian crisis, which has been the result of the ongoing-armed conflict between Boko Haram, the Nigerian military and the Multi-National Task Force in the north-east. An estimated 10 million people are affected by the conflict, which has led to a state of emergency being declared in three North-Eastern states and spill-over effects into neighbouring countries. High insecurity in the region has made access for humanitarian actors extremely difficult and further exacerbating the situation.

DRC operations will initially focus on Yola and Mubi in Adamawa State and south of Borno State and from there we will focus on meeting the basic needs (protection, WASH, food security and shelter) of urban caseloads as well as supporting outreach to affected areas and displacement camps. DRC is in the process of setting up a representational office in Abuja and a larger coordination and field based implementation office in Yola, Adamawa State.

Job Profile

EXPRESSION OF INTEREST TO DEVELOP A BUSINESS/ ENTREPRENEURSHIP TRAINING MANUAL AND CONDUCT

BUSINESS/ENTREPRENEURSHIP TRAINING FOR RETURN MIGRANTS UNDER THE ASSISTED VOLUNTARY RETURN AND REINTEGRATION PROGRAMME (AVRR) TERMS OF REFERENCE

BACKGROUND

Assisted voluntary Return and Reintegration (AVRR) is a key strategy in ensuring the humane and orderly movement of migrants. It is an indispensable component of a migration management approach which is intended to be mutually beneficial to migrants, governments and other sectors of society affected by migration. IOM implements the AVRR which has well-tailored reintegration measures supporting the socio-economic integration of returnees in their country of origin. In Nigeria, IOM has been providing reception and reintegration assistance to returnees since 2002. A major component of reintegration assistance in Nigeria continues to be the establishment of small scale enterprises for returnees. IOM Nigeria has facilitated the implementation of over 44 different types of business in all the geopolitical zones of Nigeria since 2002. 1 The RESTART NIGERIA project (funded by the European Union) commenced in 2014 with the aim of providing extra reintegration assistance to complement the existing IOM AVRR programs to Nigeria from various EU Member States. The programme aims to provide the returnees with sustainable income generation activities and smooth integration into the local communities. Although many returnees have set up small businesses, the sustainability of these businesses has been adversely affected by the difficult economic environment impacting negatively on returnee reintegration. Part of the project scope is to conduct capacity building programmes for return migrants on business management techniques/skills so they can understand the seemingly new business environment (many returnees have been out of the country for a while) so as to enhance economic reintegration. Through this consultancy, IOM seeks to develop a comprehensive training manual focusing on entrepreneurship and business management and to train returnees using the manual. The training material shall be adapted to contain basics on how to create a good business idea, good customer care practices, pricing, basic book-keeping, market and competitor analysis and basic financial planning, and most importantly, how to link to the market to sell one's commodities or services.

 

OBJECTIVE The overall objective of this consultancy is to develop a standard and comprehensive entrepreneurship/ business training manual and to train returnees under the AVRR programme using the manual, with the aim of ensuring sustainable returns and financial independence.

1 IOM has assisted beneficiaries in creating small businesses such as catering, farming, grinding mills, poultry, small grocery shops, transport, welding, among others.

METHODOLOGY AND SCOPE OF WORK The methodology will include but will not be limited to:

1. Literature Review: The applicant will review all relevant available trainings by other NGOs and Nigerian government on business/entrepreneurial management for SMEs with the aim of filling gaps in existing materials.

2. Design and Develop a comprehensive Business Training Manual.

  • This manual should be a Trainee's Manual targeted towards owners of small and medium sized business. In developing the content of the manual, the applicant should bear in mind the level of education of the returnees which ranges from non to graduate level with a majority falling between primary and secondary education.
  • The manual should be divided into modules structured for a 4 days training period and topics to be covered will be finalized on the basis of discussions with IOM, but are likely to include:
    • A general overview of Nigeria's business environment
    • Understanding business/entrepreneurship,
    • Business financing
    • Writing business plan,
    • Book keeping
    • Customer development/human relations,
    • Marketing & sales etc. Topics should be executed with case studies.

3. Training of Returnees: The applicant will conduct two (2) different trainings for four (4) day each within an interval of 1-2 months based on the training manual developed. The number of returnees to attend the trainings will be jointly decided by the applicant and IOM.

4. Conduct monitoring and evaluation of the training: In coordination with IOM, the applicant will develop pre-and post-training evaluation form. The evaluation form will serve as a tool for gauging the impact of the training on the participants' business skills and knowledge.
