Location : Sarajevo, BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA
Application Deadline : 18-Oct-17 (Midnight New York, USA)
Time left : 6d 10h 5m
Type of Contract : Individual Contract
Post Level : National Consultant
Languages Required : English
Duration of Initial Contract : Up to 16 days per Consultant in the period of 20 October 2017 to 15 December 2017
Purpose
The purpose of this consultancy is to contribute to the enhancement of knowledge and skills of relevant local government (LG) representatives (diaspora coordinators, members of local development teams and staff of economic departments) to effectively mainstream the concept of migration and development (M&D) into their integrated local development strategies, identify and develop specific project interventions, and obtain modalities and tools for institutionalizing cooperation with diaspora. For this purpose, two National Consultants for Design and Delivery of Training to Partner LGs: Diaspora within Strategic Frameworks, Identification and Project Development, Diaspora Engagement Modalities and Practical Tools (hereinafter the Consultant) will be engaged.
Objective
The main objective of the consultancy is to design and deliver four times practical and interactive two-days trainings to representatives of 16 LGs (Bijeljina, Bratunac, Jajce, Kljuc, Laktaši, Lopare, Ljubuški, Maglaj, Nevesinje, Posušje, Prijedor, Sanski Most, Tuzla, Velika Kladuša, Zenica and Žepce). The LGs will be divided into two clusters and trainings will be organized in Sarajevo/Surrounding Area. The first two sessions will focus on effective mainstreaming of the M&D concept in the process of strategic planning, identification and development of specific project proposals, while the second two sessions will target adequate forms/models and good practices for institutionalized cooperation with diaspora.
Background Information
The consultancy is planned within the D4D Project (2016-2020), a joint initiative by the Ministry of Human Rights and Refugees the Government of Switzerland, the Ministry of Human Rights and Refugees of BIH, UNDP and IOM. Official estimates show that the total number of people originating from BIH in the world (including their offspring) is approximately 2 million. Most of them retain a strong emotional, financial, and familial connection with BIH. They are also well integrated and better off than other migrant communities in their host countries, with potential and willingness to contribute to development of their homeland. However, the interaction with them is sporadic and unstructured. Hence, the valuable intellectual capital and other potential contribution of diaspora, which can help addressing country challenges or promoting BIH globally, remains largely untapped. Project has a goal to increase socio-economic opportunities and perspectives for women and men in BIH, and to improve their livelihoods through increased diaspora engagement. The overall goal of the D4D Project will be attained through achieving three specific outcomes:
· BIH Ministry of Human Rights and Refugees and BIH Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in cooperation with government institutions at different levels, use and further develop their instruments to actively connect, exchange, and engage with diaspora members and organizations;
· Local governments align their development strategies to the diaspora policy framework at higher government levels, provide more and better services to diaspora members, and encourage community initiatives to attract diaspora know-how and investment;
· Diaspora partners transfer know-how and skills and make joint investments with private sector actors in BIH, thus creating new jobs.
This consultancy will take place within the Project’s second component focused on institutionalizing cooperation between diaspora and LGs in BIH, with a final goal of contributing to local development.
Duties and Responsibilities
During the period May – September, the D4D Project conducted an online survey in 16 partner LGs assessing the existing practices, capacities and needs for cooperation with diaspora in relation to the local development. Following the LGs response to the survey, a comprehensive report – including 16 summary reports (one per each LG) with analytics, priority timeframes and overall recommendations has been prepared. The report includes detailed analyses and recommendations for strengthening capacities of LGs practitioners related to diaspora engagement in local development – systematically grouped by type of assistance needed, in line with specific sections of the administered questionnaire. In line with the survey results and LGs needs, two training programmes will be developed and delivered, covering the following topics:
· (i) Strategic frameworks, and identification and development of projects for cooperation with diaspora;
· (i) Modalities and tools for cooperation with diaspora – effective outreach and engagement.
Both trainings should combine basic theoretical knowledge, with examples of good practice and interactive working groups of participants.
More specifically, the Consultant will undertake the following main tasks:
Task 1: Training design

· (i) Mainstreaming the concept of M&D into local strategic frameworks: Overview and practical use of models and tools to effectively integrate M&D concept in local strategic planning, following the main steps of strategic planning process as per the Standardized Methodology for Local Development Planning in BIH (MiPRO); Identification and development of project proposals – diaspora engagement at local level; Practical guidance, exercises with role-play.

The Consultant can suggest additional components in discussion with the Project Team. Each component will combine theoretical knowledge with focus on practical examples/exercises.
