  • Consultant: Costing Refugee Teacher Inclusion in National Education Systems

    General Background of Project or Assignment, Operational Context:

    The Djibouti Declaration emphasizes the importance of providing equal opportunities for refugee teachers as part of the broader goal of integrating refugees into national education systems. Specifically, it calls for the recognition and upgrading of refugee teachers’ qualifications to meet national professional standards and facilitate their recruitment, it also stresses the need to build the capacity of refugee teachers by equipping them with the skills required to teach the national curriculum, providing them with the same training and development opportunities as their national counterparts. Furthermore, the Declaration advocates for the harmonization of pay scales and employment conditions between refugee and national teachers.
    However, a recently published evaluation of progress against the Djibouti Declaration in all IGAD Member States finds that refugee teachers have yet to be fully included into national education systems across the region. This commitment is documented in the Evaluation as one of the most contentious by both member states and the international community. Key reasons include the absence of, or non-recognition of qualifications, lack of clarity regarding the additional costs of integrating refugee teachers, and potential resistance from national populations and teacher unions, particularly in contexts with high unemployment rates.
    Occupational Safety and Health Considerations
    To view occupational safety and health considerations for specific duty stations, please visit this link: https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel

    Purpose and Scope of Assignment:

    Concise and detailed description of activities, including measurable outputs and delivery date, impact indicators (what qualitative and quantitative results would be achieved upon completion of individual contract), performance indicators (timelines, value of the service rendered in relation to the cost, timeliness) and work plan:
    The primary objective of this consultancy is to conduct a detailed costing analysis and develop financial projections related to the inclusion of teachers with refugee status in national education systems.

    The projections should address the following:

    Refugee teacher qualifications and training, and alignment with the requirements for professional registration and deployment in the country of asylum.
    The extension of national teacher professional development with consideration of mandatory trainings for compliance with national standards; and specific trainings based on the characteristics of refugee schools.
    Development of bridging modules:modules tailored to the specific needs of refugee teachers to deliver the national curriculum.
    Harmonization of refugee teacher payments with national schemes of service (salaries, benefits, and allowance), noting that these may have contextual differences within a country.
