Bogotá, Colombia Panagora Group A tiempo completo
Panagora Group is a small business that provides technical and advisory services related to monitoring, evaluating, and learning USAID/Colombia's strategy and activities. The Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning Short-Term Activity (MELSA) provides monitoring support services: designing and implementing performance and impact evaluations, as well as other studies and assessments, supporting their use and dissemination, and developing collaboration, learning, and adapting initiatives.
USAID/Colombia requested that MELSA develop research on the key elements of its ethnic inclusion policy. The study aims to inform the design and planning of the new Country Strategy for Development Cooperation for 2025-2030. Over some time, USAID/Colombia has implemented long-term work with ethnic communities and has invested significant resources in advancing the protection of their rights, supporting economic empowerment, strengthening their territorial governance structures and capacities (including also those related to environmental conservation), contributing to overcoming racial discrimination and exclusion. Currently, USAID/Colombia needs to (i) consolidate a review of the results achieved for the period 2009 -2023, (ii) review the lessons learned as part of its localization efforts, and (iii) analyze the current challenges and opportunities derived from the implementation of the Ethnic Chapter of the Peace Agreement framed in the role of the government as its main international partner.
The consultant who fulfills the role of expert in Afro-Colombian communities should provide advice and develop different products throughout the study regarding USAID/Colombia's work with Afro-Colombian communities and the role of Afro-Colombian organizations in the implementation of the Ethnic Chapter of the Peace Accord. To this end, the consultant will participate in designing research instruments, their implementation, and analysis and ensure they are culturally appropriate to answer the study’s questions. Additionally, the consultant will lead the desktop analysis of these communities within the framework of the study.
Responsibilities:
Provide expertise to analyze the inclusion of Afro-Colombian communities and peacebuilding in USAID/Colombia's work.
Conduct a review of selected documentation of USAID activities from 2009 to 2023, emphasizing work with Afro-Colombian communities.
Conduct interviews and focus groups with members of Afro-Colombian organizations as needed to develop the research questions.

Conduct qualitative research and analysis related to Afro-Colombian perspectives.
Contribute to the overall research methodology, analyses, and reporting, including specific findings and recommendations for work with Afro-Colombian organizations.
