The Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) is a non-governmental, humanitarian organization with 60 years of experience in helping to create a safer and more dignified life for refugees and internally displaced people. NRC advocates for the rights of displaced populations and offers assistance within the shelter, education, emergency food security, legal assistance, and water,sanitation and hygiene sectors. We are recruiting to fill the position below: Job Title: Consultant - Developing Agro-skills Training Booklet Location: Borno Background Prior to the insurgency, the north eastern states of Nigeria lagged in terms of social development investment in comparison to other regions. Poverty, illiteracy, lack of access to education and youth unemployment indicated alarming needs and gaps with over half of the children and adolescents between 6-15 years old not attending school. 66 per cent of the overall population never having been to school. More than half of the population are under the age of 30 and the youth unemployment rate sits at 25 per cent. In the North East, youth unemployment was already higher than the rest of the country prior to the conflict. Since May 2018, NRC in partnership with Unicef is implementing a Skill for Work and Life project targeting 1,552 IDPs and vulnerable host community out-of-school youth, aged 14-25, in Borno State with vocational skills. The project aims at providing opportunities for youth to express themselves, be involved in decisions that affect them and become active participants rather than passive beneficiaries in programmes targeting their communities. The transfer of practical vocational skills will eventually help to address unemployment challenges and open opportunities for self-employment for the youth. NRC distributed 696 agro skills training packs and numeracy booklets to students and facilitators. The project is funded by the UNICEF. Overall Objective of the Assignment
