Job Title: PEA Virtual Training Consultant

Project Overview

  • The Stamping out Trafficking in Nigeria (SoTiN) is a 4-years DFID Nigeria programme which aims to change or reduce the behaviors, attitudes, and social norms in Edo State that drive or enable human trafficking and unsafe migration.

SoTiN seeks to achieve the impact that more effective Government and non-Government institutions reduce the drivers and enablers of unsafe migration and human trafficking through three components:

  • Strengthened Edo State Government response to preventing unsafe migration and human trafficking: more effective and innovative use of resources – human, financial, physical, political and network assets– supports a ‘whole of government’ approach to preventing unsafe migration and human trafficking through social and attitudinal change.
  • Improved coordination, innovation, and quality of NGO response to preventing unsafe migration and human trafficking: better coordinated and more effective civil society tackling the drivers and enablers of human trafficking.
  • A stronger evidence base for action in anti-slavery prevention, with learning platforms operating and informing policy and interventions: the use of evidence and sharing of best practices becomes embedded in ways of working, to deliver improved performance.
  • SoTiN invites application from suitably qualified candidates to conduct Political Economy Analysis (PEA) training for the core team and downstream partners in Edo State, Nigeria.

  • Better understand what tools and frameworks are available for political economy analysis and how they can be applied.
  • Encourage the use of PEA in an iterative way through regular strategic review processes and improved programme management.
  • Learning to better situate the SoTiN programme within the prevailing political and economic processes in Edo State, Nigeria

Deliverables
In delivering this task the consultant is expected to:

  • Develop and share teaching and learning materials on Political Economy Analysis (PEA) for SoTiN team and downstream partners.
  • Facilitate a 3-day virtual PEA training course on the use of PEA as a tool in understanding and resolving the problem of human trafficking and unsafe migration in Edo State.
