Scope of Work:
Researchers from the International Food Policy Research Institute, UC Berkeley, and UC San Diego (hereafter, the principal investigators, or PIs) are conducting a study (a participatory action research agenda) to improve women’s empowerment beyond the household—including in governance at different levels. Specifically, we propose to test whether a training intervention designed to strengthen women’s sense of collective efficacy and leadership skills will improve their voice and agency in local political engagement via a randomized control trial (RCT) to be implemented in likely 3 southwestern states of Nigeria in 2022 (prospectively, Ogun, Oyo, and possibly a third state – though this is subject to change based on the PIs’ assessment of the appropriate sample as informed by preliminary work with partners). In both treatment and control communities, we will recruit women to join women’s action committees (WACs) to be trained by ActionAid Nigeria: (1) 1/3 of WACs (placebo group) will receive basic information on the political process and points of potential influence (one meeting); (2) 1/3 (treatment group 1) will receive the same political information as the placebo group in the first meeting, and receive 3-4 additional intensive trainings in leadership, organizing, civic education, and advocacy, intended to increase women’s sense of group-based injustice, group identity, and collective efficacy (CE), and improve their articulation of demands to policymakers and policymakers’ responsiveness to them; and (3) 1/3 (treatment group 2) will receive the same treatment as treatment group 1 in addition to having their husband invited to participate in a separate, men’s training on the importance of women’s political participation, and tangible ways to support women’s political participation, voice, and agency.
Required Qualifications:
- Excellent knowledge of women’s empowerment programming in Nigeria, and women’s civil society organizations’ operations and roles
- Facility with any required local languages as well as English
- Specialization in designing trainings for both women and men, including on topics relates to political participation, voice, and agency beyond the home
- Professional demeanor in all practice and particularly in oral and written communication
- Experience documenting lessons from a pilot to improve curriculum
- Ability to approach people in a friendly, compelling, and engaging way
- Experience securing government support for and local IRB approval of household surveys in Nigeria
- Time-conscious, able to respect deadlines
