| Overview : This consultancy aims to conduct a landscape analysis to provide information on adolescent and youth education and training; employment and skills building; empowerment and engagement in Botswana, and identification of scalable initiatives. This work will also include insight into the bottlenecks, challenges and gaps being experienced in these areas and recommendations on how best to drive the youth agenda under Generation unlimited in Botswana. The final documents will be critical reference documents for the recently set up National GenU Steering Committee in its work. The consultancy is planned for Botswana with in-country travel. The service provider should outline the concrete methodology as part of their (i) technical proposal and (ii) finalized in the Inception Report. At this stage, the methodology will encompass primary and secondary data gathered and analyzed by qualitative and quantitative methods. Moreover, the service provider should ensure that parts of the research are “youth-led”,,, i.e. young people undertake fact-finding, interviews and data gathering to inform the Landscape Analysis. This may need capacity building from the service provider to the young people. The service provider shall outline in the technical proposal how young people are engaged during the research, in which areas and how the service provider intends to document this. Youth engagement and youth-led research strongly align with GenU’s overall strategic priorities. The service provider is expected to provide a comprehensive methodological approach especially considering the Covid-19 global pandemic and its implications for physical meetings and other human-to-human engagements and restricted mobility. Covid-19 global pandemic impacts strongly primary data collection. It remains to be seen how and when primary data can be collected. The service provider is encouraged to explore all possible means for online, digital, audio-visual primary data collections. |
