Scope of Work: The consultant will build on ongoing research that seeks to understand climate change adaptation across the diverse livestock production systems in Eastern Africa. This research has formed the basis for the development of the draft indicator sets which the consultant will use to design the adaptation tracking index and tool.

- Review and refine the indicator sets
- Construct indices based on the indicator sets and the conceptual framework that will be provided
- Design a composite index that can show progress in climate change adaptation across temporal and spatial scales
- Integrate the index into a tool that allows the integration of datasets and visualization of progress in the state of adaptation within the livestock sector across space and time
- Support the testing and refinement of the tool using datasets held by state and non-state actors e.g., periodic national and sub-national surveys and census on livestock, periodic national and subnational socioeconomic surveys, downscaled climate data
- Support the development of a survey tool for collecting data for relevant indicators that are not covered by the existing datasets
- Document the development of the adaptation tracking indices and tool and write a user manual for application of the tool
