International Consultant at International Organization for Migration (IOM)

Posted on Wed 26th Oct, 2022 - hotnigerianjobs.com --- (0 comments)


The International Organization for Migration (IOM) - Established in 1951, IOM is the leading inter-governmental organization in the field of migration and works closely with governmental, intergovernmental and non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants.

We are recruiting to fill the position below:

Job Title: International Consultant - Development of a design competition for durable housing solutions for displaced populations in North-East Nigeria

SVN No. : CFCV2022.147
Location: Maiduguri, Borno and Remotely
Organizational Unit: Shelter/NFI
IOM Classification: International Consultant
Type of Appointment: Consultant, 50 working days
Estimated Start Date: As soon as possible

Context

  • The objective of the consultancy is to conduct an assessment of the construction sector, the local construction techniques, and housing typologies, a mapping of relevant contractors and institutions active in the sector and academia, with the ultimate goal of designing a technical and general brief for a design competition to compile innovative ideas for locally appropriate housing solutions for displaced populations in the context of North East Nigeria.
  • Since 2015, the North-East of Nigeria has witnessed an increase in violence perpetrated by the Non-State Armed Group, causing a major humanitarian crisis. The intensification of attacks has resulted in prolonged insecurity, exacerbating the plight of vulnerable civilians and triggering forced displacement, as well as violation of human rights.
  • As of 2022, approximately 2.2 million displaced people require shelter and NFI assistance (HNO 2022). Displacement and the destruction of homes and infrastructure have caused significant shelter needs. Sectoral assessments reveal that more than 2.2 million people require shelter and NFI-related assistance in 2022. Most of the displaced populations are in Borno State, where over 45% live in formal and informal IDP camps, often in congested conditions because of the continuous influx of new arrivals.
  • Access to land to construct shelters for vulnerable people living in host communities is also a concern. In most of the highly congested LGAs in Borno State, the most suitable land is often outside of established security perimeters. Adamawa state has experienced pockets of relative stability in areas initially affected by the insurgency.
  • The International Organization for Migration (IOM) in line with the relevant state governments’ plans has started pilot projects to construct durable mud-brick houses and latrines for IDP’s and Returnees in Borno and Adamawa State. The construction projects aim to provide a more dignified and durable shelter solution to landless IDP’s and to vulnerable Returnees and stimulate economic activity through the injection of resources into the local community, including providing opportunities for skills enhancement and further livelihood opportunities.
  • Other agencies have also commenced the implementation of similar projects in the North East. IOM and other partners identified several challenges regarding the provision of durable housing solutions.
  • These include issues related to durability and local materials optimization; the lack of a detailed analysis of local issues and techniques; a primary focus of sheltering solutions on addressing immediate needs with limited consideration for long-term solutions; challenges of the basic housing modules to face seasons variability and weather conditions, against a background of short funding cycles; limited opportunities for incremental housing approaches; and the need to make housing solutions more inclusive to cater for the diverse needs of people living with different kinds of disabilities, just to name a few.

The project consists of the following phases, with the first phase being the core focus of this consultancy with the possibility of extending to cover phase 2 depending on funding and performance:

  • Phase 1: Inception, Analysis, Development of Housing and materials Taxonomies, design competition Brief, fundraising, etc.
  • Phase 2: Launch of design competition, selection of winners, and implementation of prototypes. Development of concept note for future funding opportunities.

    • For Phase 2, the expected modality will be remote, with possible travel to Nigeria for workshops as needed.
