    CONSULTANCY SERVICE TO CONDUCT A BASELINE ASSESSMENT FOR THE PROJECT ENTITLED “FACILITATING INFORMED MIGRATION CHOICES – COMMUNITY CONVERSATION AS A TOOL FOR PREVENTING UNSAFE MIGRATION IN ETHIOPIA”

    1. BACKGROUND

    Ethiopia is at the centre of the migration stage in the Horn of Africa (HoA), being a country of origin, transit and destination for migrants who face significant protection risks in a region in crisis. A wide variety of push and pull factors drive thousands of young Ethiopians[1], including women and children, on irregular and dangerous pathways every year using three main migratory routes to the Middle East, South Africa and Europe, respectively.

    A knowledge, attitude and practise (KAP) survey conducted by IOM in 2018[2] indicated that a wide majority of in- and out-of-school youths in Ethiopia were aware of more than one risk associated with irregular migration. Other studies[3] conclude that potential migrants are more likely to believe in the accuracy of their knowledge of the protection risks of irregular migration than current migrants. These findings reveal important gaps in terms of the knowledge and attitudes driving irregular migration decisions in Ethiopia. The desperate conditions pushing young people to migrate are compounded by strong social norms that make young people consider migration as part of their familial responsibilities. Limited access to regular pathways to migration is a well-known gap in countering narratives around the benefits of irregular migration. In addition, growing landlessness and limited employment opportunities in rural Ethiopia, coupled with reluctance of youth to pursue agriculture, are likely to have contributed to the increased outmigration in the recent years.

    To address this issue, IOM and the GoE have together launched a national Community Conversation Programme (CCP), a forum whereby community members regularly sit together with other stakeholders to share information on irregular migration, share responsibility to counter irregular migration and support homegrown solutions and alternatives to irregular migration. These sessions cover topics such as trafficking in persons, smuggling of migrants, risks involved in irregular migration, attitude toward risk, realities in countries of origin, safe migration options, livelihood opportunities, mapping of local resources and how to harness them. At the end of the sessions, the community members jointly develop measures to address the identified challenges. The strengthening of the CCP has been generously supported by the Government of the Netherlands which, through a first project phase that ran from October 2016 to July 2018, enabled the scale-up of the programme to 1,890 kebeles (localities) in the main regional states of origin for irregular migration and trafficking. Moreover, using a grassroots empowerment approach, some community conversation groups (CCG) have developed strong linkages with local development and protection systems. For instance, CCG members in kebeles in SNNP regional state have successfully linked vulnerable community members has facilitated access to get land for production and income-generating activities (IGAs). Increasingly, these best practices have inspired greater GoE ownership in the management of the CCP. For instance, the government in the SNNP Regional State has dedicated specific financial resources since 2015 to ensure the sustainability of the CCP and mainstreamed it in its annual planning.

    Based on these developments, IOM with funding from the Government of the Netherlands is implementing the second phase of the project entitled “Facilitating Informed Migration Choices – Community Conversation as a Tool for Preventing Unsafe Migration in Ethiopia.” This project aims to contribute to the efforts of the Government of Ethiopia (GoE) to prevent unsafe migration by facilitating informed migration choices and promoting alternatives to irregular migration. To achieve this, IOM proposes three core objectives:

    (1) Potential migrants demonstrate improved capacity to make informed migration decisions and participate in counter-trafficking initiatives in their communities;

    (2) Increased GoE ownership of the CCP results in improved coordination of TiP and SoM prevention and protection initiatives in the country; and

    (3) Improved access to livelihood opportunities including facilitating access for regular livelihood options and referral services facilitates enhanced protection of vulnerable potential migrants and returnees.

    Compared to its first phase, this new project introduces four new elements. First, it will prioritize building/reinforcing GoE ownership of the CCP by building governmental capacities, especially monitoring, reporting and evaluation capacities at the regional and local levels. Second, this new project includes activities, including an in-depth impact assessment conducted by IOM’s Global Migration Data Analysis Centre (GMDAC), that will help measure the actual impact of the CCP on the knowledge, attitudes and practices vis-à-vis irregular migration of targeted populations. This crucial evidence base will further support the GoE and IOM in making necessary adjustments to improve the CCP and other government and stakeholders-led behavioural change communication interventions on migration. Third, this phase will emphasize on the awareness-livelihood nexus by improving access to livelihood opportunities (in-country and overseas employment options) and to protection services of vulnerable potential migrants and returnees. Finally, the project will bear increased attention to issues of gender equality in the CCP and other planned interventions to ensure women and girls attain equal levels of participation in discussion, decision-making processes as well as in livelihood support activities.

    2.OBJECTIVES OF THE CONSULTANCY

    The overall objective of this consultancy is to design data collection methodologies and collect data on all

    indicators of the project as described in the results framework for the project. The baseline survey will provide the benchmarks against which any changes resulting from the project interventions and results will be measured. The below specific tasks will be required from the selected consultancy team:

    § To design data collection methodologies for all project indicators include setting criteria, defining key aspects and developing data collection tools;

    § To collect, analyse and present baseline data at the objective, outcome and output level (based on the project log frame) to allow for efficient measurement of project impact during and after implementation. Moreover, identify the key gender-related issues at stake in the project with a specific focus on (1) the CCP, (2) capacity building interventions, and (3) livelihood support interventions. Issues such as gender division of labour, gender differentials in activities surrounding access to and control over resources, power and decision making, legal rights and status, women’s priorities, restraints and motivations as well as time spent on productive and reproductive activities will be closely considered;

    § Verify project log frame’s adequacy with realities observed on the ground and propose any adjustments to the results framework of the project. Analyze and, if deemed necessary, revise project log frame to ensure SMART indicators are in place to effectively measure project contribution to gender equality improvement;

    § Provide actionable recommendations for the project implementation team at IOM and GoE to effectively mainstream gender in project implementation, M&E and reporting and develop a gender-responsive strategy to project implementation and monitoring describing the best approaches to address gender inequalities and identifying strategies to mobilize women’s agency;

    § Propose indicators and monitoring methods for measuring impact and sustainability of interventions and collect, analyse and present any baseline data related to this endeavour;

    § Provide an overall analysis and recommendations towards improved implementation of the project and effective mainstreaming of cross-cutting themes, particularly gender equality, environmental sustainability and sustainability of interventions.

    3.SCOPE

    The project will cover the main regional states of origin for irregular migration, namely Amhara, Oromia, Tigray and Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples (SNNP) with interventions in Eritrean refugee camps in the Shire area as well as in transit regional states such as Afar and Somali. IOM also plans to conduct community-based livelihood interventions in 20 different kebeles across these different regional states.

    4.APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY

    § The baseline study should adopt a mixed methods approach, integrating quantitative and qualitative methods to ensure that data collected is triangulated and can be communicated, explained and contextualised. It is expected that the consultant will combine surveys/questionnaires with structured interviews and focus group discussions. Research teams are encouraged to use innovative methods to collect and analyse data.

    § The sample size will be determined in collaboration with IOM to ensure a gender aware and statistically relevant representation of the project beneficiaries and stakeholders. The sample size should include, at a minimum, kebeles not reached by the CCP; kebeles reached by the CCP but not selected for community-based livelihood interventions; and kebeles reached by the CCP and selected for community-based livelihood interventions. Information shall be collected from across specified beneficiaries, partners and stakeholders.

    § The consultant shall conduct an extensive desk review of CPP, project and other related documents and secondary sources.

    § All data collected during the baseline survey will be disaggregated by age and gender.

    5.EXPECTED DELIVERABLES AND TIMELINE

    The objective of the Better Migration Management (BMM) program is to improve the migration management in the Eastern African region in response to the needs identified by the African countries of the Khartoum Process, and in particular to address the trafficking of human beings and the smuggling of migrants within and from the Horn of Africa. One of the main goals of BMM’s protection component in Ethiopia is to have unaccompanied and/or separated minors (UASM) who are irregular migrants receive specialized protection according to identified needs and in accordance with international human rights standards pursuant to BMM’s Result 3.4. This could be achieved through main result indicators on the program: 1) RI 3.4.2: Multidisciplinary child protection teams adapted in appropriate facilities in 2 other countries; and 2) RI 3.4.3: Number of inter-institutional training measures on best interest determination, child protection/ SOPs (e.g. family tracing/reunification). BMM through GIZ is now working on the establishment and operation of 1) non-residential drop-in centers to provide referral and support to vulnerable young migrants, particularly women (A 3.3.1.2) and 2) of child protection facilities to assist children on the move (A 3.4.2 - 3.4.7). These facilities will be established in migration hotspot regions in Ethiopia along key migration pathways where occurrences of smuggling and trafficking of vulnerable migrants are rife.

    Develop Occupational Standard, Training Curriculum, Training, Teaching and Learning Materials (TTLM) and Competency Assessment Tools for Household Service and Domestic Help, and Care Giving Skill Training Programs for Migrant Workers

    Background

    Ethiopia has one of the fastest-growing economies in the continent. Despite its considerable economic growth, unemployment, especially youth unemployment, is high. Over the past decade, youth employment has gained significant prominence on the national development agendas. Approximately three million youths enter the labour force every year (ILO, 2017). However, there is a challenge in ensuring productive employment opportunities in both rural and urban areas. Therefore, growing numbers of Ethiopians look for job opportunities in the capital province, other urban areas or migrate abroad. Although the exact number of Ethiopians who have migrated abroad is not known, due to irregular migration channels and the absence of a centralized registrar system, there is evidence that large numbers of Ethiopians migrate to the different parts of the world. According to the estimates by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, more than two million Ethiopians live in the diaspora[1]. However, the numbers are estimated to be higher since there is growing evidence that outward migration has increased significantly in recent years. The Country has become one of the major sending countries of Migrant Domestic Workers (MDWs) to the Middle Eastern countries and their numbers have greatly increased in recent years. According to the data from the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs (MoLSA) around 460,000 Ethiopians have regularly migrated for employment to the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) States mainly Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and United Arab Emirates, and Lebanon between September 2008 and August 2013 out of which close to 86 percent are women going as domestic worker.

    International migration contributes to poverty reduction at family level and to the development of human capital. Migrant remittances create multiplier effects in rural economies and can thus contribute to economic development. Also, education and healthcare sectors receive high priority in the spending of remittances. In 2010, Ethiopia had an inflow of remittances of 387 million USD compared to the net Foreign Direct Investment inflow of 100 million USD and net Overseas Development Assistance (ODI) of 3.3 billion USD[2]. This has shown an increase over the years where in 2016 remittance inflows to Ethiopia has reached 600 million USD. A study conducted by the ILO (2016) shows that on average, a migrant domestic worker from Arab States sends remittances of around 66,238.60 ETB (3,335.30 USD) per year.

    By understanding the development significance coupled with the need for protection of migrant workers due to the increasing incidences abuses faced by Ethiopian migrants at destination countries, the Government of Ethiopia (GoE) is working in collaboration with international partners, such as the ILO, to improve the overall migration governance in the country.

    The Government of Ethiopia has been taking multiple initiatives to enhance the labour migration governance. To mention some, it is working to improve recruitment and placement services by decentralizing the services as well as building the capacity of key government institutions to effectively and efficiently govern the regular labour migration process by establishing new institutional structure to govern overseas employment. In addition, Skills training and pre-departure training and orientation has been mainstream as part of oversees employment requirements. To this end, the government has in collaboration with TVET, introduced two skills training programs by developing Occupational Standards (OS) and training curriculum for housekeeping and care giving in 2011. The TVET centers has been providing training for potential migrants using the 2011 curriculum, however, as per the new Proclamation for overseas employment 2016 (923/2016), there is a need to revise the OS, and training Curriculum. Moreover, as an integral part of the TVET reforms being pursued by the government of Ethiopia, TVET system is now focused on delivering its services according to labor market demands and industry relevance. In order to cope up with this objective, TVET system has adopted the outcome based training delivery approach. The approach uses the Occupational Standard (OS) as an indicator of the target or expected outcome for TVET delivery. Based on the OS, training curriculum are designed and structured to play an important role and facilitate the learning process in a way that learners can acquire set of competences required at the workplace as defined in the Ethiopia Occupational Standards (EOS). Furthermore, Training, Teaching and Learning Materials or TTLM are necessary in the learning process. TTLM serve as a guide to both the facilitator/teacher and the trainee in attaining the defined learning outcomes of the program and are vital in creating an enabling element to the learning and teaching process. Therefore, it has become necessary to revise the OS and Curriculum, and develop TTLM and Competency Assessment tools for the Household Service and Care Giving Skills training programs for migrant workers.

    To this end, the ILO country Office for Djibouti, Ethiopia, Sudan, South Sudan and Somalia is seeking to hire a qualified consultant or consulting firm to support the Federal TVET Agency and Ministry of Labour (MoLSA) in Ethiopia to revise and set occupational standard, develop training Curriculum; Training, Teaching and Learning Materials (TTLM) and competency Assessment tools for Household Service, Domestic Help, and Care Giving Skill Training Programs for migrant workers taking into account international best practices.
