    Project Description

    Mercy Corps is a leading global humanitarian and development organization powered by the belief that a better world is possible. In disaster, in hardship, in more than 40 countries around the world, we partner to put bold solutions into action — helping people triumph over adversity and build stronger communities from within.

    The AgriFin Accelerate (AFA) program is a six year, USD 24.7 million program of Mercy Corps, supported by The MasterCard Foundation to Support activities in Kenya, Tanzania and Zambia.

    The core problem AgriFin Accelerate seeks to address is the inclusion gap for smallholder farmers (SHF) who lack access to affordable, accessible, demand-driven financial products and services that drive higher productivity and income for farm families. The program is transitioning towards less implementation and focusing on measuring impact of the various engagements it has established

    The AgriFin Digital Farmer Program (ADF) is $5 million initiative funded by the Gates Foundation to expand access to digitally-enabled financial and non-financial services for at least 1 million smallholders across in Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia and Nigeria by 2020.

    AgriFin’s strategy on knowledge production, dissemination and utilization depends on utilizing the data generated by our partners to define product and service development. The data focuses largely on the supply side of information production – the data collection, reports, document generation – and much less on the demand size of dissemination and utilization. The challenge on the demand side is stimulating data use for decision-making, product and service design, and audience targeting and impact. High-quality research alone does not always lead to stakeholders taking action.

    AgriFin program requires additional technical support on programming towards Big Data and Food security. This will include support on strategy in the areas climate resiliency and increasing service to women. This Internship sets to support core activities critical at this stage of the program.

    Internship Objectives

    Participate in analyzing data to generate knowledge and dissemination activities.
    Develop technical experience in working on data driven technical programs in the areas of agriculture, technology, and financial inclusion in a developing country context.
    Develop writing skills in communicating analysis pieces on digital finance, financial inclusion, agriculture, and technology solutions.
    Increase knowledge of market systems development approaches to program implementation, particularly in the Kenya context, through on-the-ground observation and facilitation of qualitative and quantitative research.
    Management of program and research projects through their life cycle, as well as Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning.
    Through practical field experience and direct engagement with partners, gain a general understanding of the region’s dynamic social, political, economic, and cultural issues, their underlying causes, and Mercy Corps’ AgriFin approach to addressing these issues.

    Deliverables

    Support and assist with creating project and research reports
    Learning outputs in the form of case studies and blog posts
     

    Ideal Candidate Should Possess The Following Qualifications

    Currently enrolled or recent graduate (no more than 1 year) from an advanced program studying agriculture, finance, economic development, international development, communications, media or other relevant studies;
    Knowledge of best practices in Project management, research, M&E, data management analysis and utilization methods.
    Experience in drafting or supporting communication pieces;
    Strong writing and analytical skills are a must (a writing sample will be requested from the candidate);
    Previous field experience a plus;
