About IRC (International Rescue Committee)

The IRC will put in place high-impact, cost-effective solutions that help people affected by crisis. We'll also use our learning and experience to shape humanitarian policy and practice in ways that improve the lives of more people worldwide.

Job Description

The consultant will work together with the IRC’s Airbel and AQBE Project Management Unit to support the design and delivery of the following AQBE research deliverables over the 5-year project period:

  • Rapid Education Risk Analysis (RERA): annualized surveys, including FGDs, KIIs, undertaken to understand the key barriers and enabling factors to safe access for all learners in the targeted AQBE provinces. RERA’s will utilize a standard USAID toolkit developed to understand risk and mitigation factors to reduce risk around safe access to quality education.
  •  Household Assessment: baseline, midline and endline assessments, including the use of IRC’s AMAL Toolkit (Annual Monitoring of Afghan Learning). These assessments will take place in a sampling of targeted households and communities across eight AQBE provinces and will include: adapted EGRA and EGMA; adapted Social Emotional Learning (SEL) questionnaires, and household demographic surveys.
  • For the baseline surveys, the consultant is expected to provide recommendations/evidence to IRC’s Airbel and MERL Lead in as far as whether the project should adopt a standard baseline or a rolling baseline.
  • Transition Assessments: will be designed and undertaken in Y3 and Y5 of AQBE programming, with the intention of measuring transition for CBE learners into public schools, as well as evaluating the causal factors for successful transitions of learners, in eight supported AQBE provinces.

Job Requirements

  • 7-10 years of research experience in the related field, with a specific expertise in Qualitative Research analysis
  • Master’s or PHD degree in the field of Education or research methods.  
  • Experience with primary data collection (FGDs) and analysis (tool development, testing, validation).
