The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) is the world's definitive source of data and analysis on internal displacement. Since its establishment in 1998 as part of the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), it has offered a rigorous, independent and trusted service to the international community. Its work informs policy and operational decisions that improve the lives of the millions of people living in internal displacement, or at risk of becoming displaced in the future. Each year, IDMC provides validated estimates of the magnitude of displacement due to disasters and violence at global, regional and country levels, following IDMC’s data model for capturing the total number of internally displaced people (IDPs) and the total number of cumulative internal displacements. These estimates are published in IDMC’s Global Report on Internal Displacement (GRID) and the Global Internal Displacement Database (GIDD).
Building on IDMC’s experience collating, aggregating, verifying and analysing internal displacement data during the past 26 years, government capacity strengthening on internal displacement data is a growing area of work in IDMC. In both project-based and programmatic work, IDMC is managing a range of capacity-strengthening activities, including conducting training of government actors on internal displacement data metrics and on research methodologies and indicators use to capture internal displacement, developing guidance documents reflecting global best practices on data on internal displacement mapping, and providing recommendations on current data practices by governments and their partners.
IDMC is now looking for a part-time Capacity Strengthening Tool Designer Consultant IDMC. The consultant is expected to start beginning of April for a period of 6 months.
The overall objective of the Consultancy is to support the development of tools for capacity-strengthening on internal displacement data including training materials, interactive exercises, guidance documents, example templates for data collection, using a range of tools such as PowerPoint, interactive software (Mentimeter, Prezi) and data collection and management software such as Excel and Kobo Toolbox. In certain cases, the Consultant will be expected to develop such tools independently, with guidance and based on supporting materials provided by IDMC. In other cases, the Consultant will be tasked to create new and improved versions of materials based on existing ones developed by IDMC. The consultant will furthermore be tasked to develop miscellaneous materials such as training and workshop evaluation forms and guidelines for workshop facilitators. The Consultant is expected to proactively engage with IDMC’s wider team to identify opportunities for further improvements and extensions to existing tools and take an active role in advising on the prioritization of different types of tools based on current state-of-the-art capacity-strengthening on data in humanitarian and development settings.
