Responsibilities
Research, Compile and Enrich One Acre Fund’s Youth Learnings –
You will work with the Monitoring & Evaluation and HCD teams to gather learnings on the demographics, socio-economic status, farming systems, and daily lives of young smallholder farmers – through surveys, focus groups, and formative research.
You will generate and compile insights into young farmer priorities, barriers, needs, pain points and aspirations.
Inform One Acre Fund’s Youth Strategy and Programming –
Based on research and learnings, you will help to inform and scope new products and services to pilot, which are attractive and impactful for young farmers.
You will support on evaluation of pilots, with a focus on impact, cost-effectiveness and scalability.
You will facilitate conversations between in-country and global leads on how to best apply research and trial learnings.
Over time, you will propose and co-design clear and practical recommendation for scale-up of initiatives aimed at addressing the barriers and opportunities faced by young farmers.
Building these learnings and developing youth-focused programming will take time. This is an ongoing, iterative process as we learn, pilot, and – eventually – begin to scale proven innovations. Your role is to help steward the evolution of – and ongoing improvements to – our youth strategy over the long-term.
