The primary objectives of this assignment encompass a comprehensive range of responsibilities aimed at achieving measurable outcomes. The role requires a candidate with demonstrated expertise in the specified domain, alongside a proven ability to deliver results within defined timelines. Key duties include strategic planning, execution of initiatives, and performance evaluation to ensure alignment with organizational goals. Additionally, the position demands strong analytical skills to assess data, identify trends, and propose actionable solutions. Collaboration with cross-functional teams and stakeholders is essential to foster synergy and drive project success.
To develop quantitative baseline values for the identified Partnership Harmonized Indicators (Phis), primary data will be gathered and evaluated using established qualitative collection methods, thereby producing qualitative insights into the operational dynamics of the RA-PURE ecosystem in Kenya.
Evaluate, confirm, and, as needed, adjust the preliminary PHI values derived from the initial desk review by cross-referencing them with field-based evidence obtained through Key Informant Interviews (Kids) and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), updating the values as necessary to ensure they precisely represent the broader ago-energy landscape in Kenya.
Deliver a detailed narrative analysis for each indicator value, elucidating its meaning, context, and alignment with program objectives. For instance, if an indicator measures the quantity of knowledge products, the analysis must identify the specific products, name their authors, incorporate references or copies procured from organizations enlisted by the consultant, and include links to publicly accessible or formally published materials, where relevant.
The Partnership Harmonized Indicators are quantitative metrics derived from the system signals established by the Partnership. These system signals, often referred to as ‘signals of change,’ are qualitative indicators designed to assess whether the Partnership is driving measurable shifts within the system.
Kenya is seeking a dynamic and experienced professional to drive strategic initiatives and foster sustainable growth within the organization. The ideal candidate will possess a minimum of five years of progressive leadership experience, coupled with a proven track record in operational excellence and team management. Responsibilities include spearheading cross-functional projects, optimizing processes to enhance efficiency, and cultivating a high-performance culture. Strong analytical skills and the ability to translate data into actionable insights are essential, as is a collaborative leadership style that inspires innovation and accountability. The role demands adaptability to navigate evolving market dynamics while maintaining a sharp focus on delivering measurable results. Proficiency in stakeholder engagement, budget oversight, and performance metrics will be critical to success in this position.
We are currently seeking a qualified professional to oversee the assignment, focusing on its comprehensive overview and the full extent of required tasks. This role entails managing and executing all aspects of the project scope, ensuring alignment with organizational objectives and delivering the specified outcomes efficiently and effectively.
The consultant’s primary responsibility involves executing a baseline assessment of the Partnership’s Priority Health Indicators (Phis) and producing a thorough baseline assessment report. This foundational study establishes a strong benchmark against which advancements in the Phis can be systematically evaluated. Close collaboration with the Power for Food Partnership’s country-specific teams, particularly the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) Advisors, will be essential to the consultant’s role.
The consultant will leverage supplementary, pertinent country-level documentation—such as the link mapping exercise report and the gap analysis report—to guide the assignment, incorporating, among other resources, the baseline inception report.
We will employ a systematic and rigorous approach to guide our processes and decisions throughout the project. This involves carefully selecting and applying appropriate techniques, tools, and frameworks to ensure optimal outcomes. Each step will be meticulously planned, executed, and evaluated to maintain high standards of quality and efficiency. Continuous assessment and adaptation will be integral to refining our strategies as needed. Collaboration and clear communication among team members will be prioritized to enhance overall effectiveness.
The assessment will employ a mixed-methods strategy that integrates Key Informant Interviews (Kids) and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs). Drawing on prior findings from the inception phase, an initial PHI desk review, the LINK mapping exercise, and an ecosystem gap analysis, the consultant will expand upon these existing insights.
The assessment will entail conducting approximately 25 to 30 Key Informant Interviews with key stakeholders throughout the RA-PURE ecosystem, alongside two Focus Group Discussions involving designated system actors. The final methodology, including stakeholder categories, sampling strategy, and allocation of Kids and FGDs, will be determined during the inception phase in collaboration with the Kenya Power For Food Partnership team.
The assessment baseline incorporates the following 11 protected health indicators (Phis) as defined by the Partnership.
We have developed a range of knowledge products collaboratively within RA-PURE through multi-actor learning platforms.
An increasing number of active learning platforms are currently integrated with RA-PURE, each contributing to enhanced functionality and user engagement within the system.
Several collaborative initiatives have been implemented by various system stakeholders to facilitate the early expansion of RA-PURE practices through pilot programs.
Numerous multi-stakeholder collaborative efforts have been undertaken to advance the widespread adoption of RA-PURE solutions, effectively addressing critical barriers to scaling.
Professionally delivered RA-PURE products or services integrated and utilized by system participants.
To enhance the adoption of services and products aligned with the RA-PURE nexus, system actors will conduct a series of awareness-raising, demonstration, and promotional initiatives aimed at engaging their peers and encouraging behavioral change.
The success of RA-PURE innovations and practices will be measured by the growing number of farmers and agribusinesses that embrace them, particularly those who utilize RA-PURE services, as well as the influence of inclusive, evidence-based advocacy initiatives on policy decisions regarding RA-PURE integration. Additionally, the role of individuals—referred to as champions—who proactively encourage others to align their practices with RA-PURE objectives will be a key factor in driving adoption and fostering systemic change.
To maximize the impact of RA PURE initiatives, the role will strategically deploy a diverse portfolio of investments, including a mix of asset classes, funding mechanisms, and financial instruments tailored to align with programmatic goals and risk tolerance.
Policies, strategies, and regulatory frameworks incorporating RA-PURE nexus principles are quantified to assess integration levels.
The preliminary PHI values derived from the initial desk review will form the foundation for this assignment. The consultant will assess these preliminary values, gather further empirical data through Key Informant Interviews (Kids) and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), and leverage the insights to confirm, adjust, or enhance the existing values as required. Additionally, the consultant will establish baseline values for indicators lacking preliminary data.
The evaluation may incorporate pertinent components of the Kenya MEL framework alongside the Partnership Harmonized Indicators (Phis) to offer additional contextual perspectives. These perspectives will enhance the PHI analysis without introducing extra baseline indicators, though the precise focus areas will be determined and finalized during the inception phase.
