- Tenders are invited for Education Access and Quality Improvement Program EAQIP” Horumarinta Elmiga IV Labor Market Assessment Survey Term. Closing Date: 29 Sep 2022 Type: Consultancy CARE Somaliland seeks a short-term consultant's assistance, to conduct a Labor Market Assessment Survey in Hargeisa, Burco, Berbera, Borama, Erigavo, Gabiley, Ainabo, Saylac, Badhan, and Lasanod. In Somaliland, youth and adults face many challenges that have been intensified by political and environmental instability. These challenges include lack of quality and availability of formal education, poverty, frequent and prolonged droughts, and poor access to employment and self-employment opportunities. Youth/adults are also faced with a lack of opportunities for practical job training and formal employment in the region is scarce. They have also not been able to access adequate or appropriate resources for engaging in enterprise development. With few structured opportunities for access to education and viable employment, youth in the region have increasingly engaged in piracy, terrorism, forced migration, and other anti-social behaviors which have thus contributed to the instability in the region. Due to current dynamics and complexities in the market including COVID-19, climate crises, and surging unemployment, a comprehensive labor market assessment will be used to assess the skills and employment landscape, identify how the market system is unfolding and whether there are innovations in the landscape. The review will provide substantive and evidence-based and gender sensitive and inclusive recommendations about emerging sectors in the market, and innovative marketable skills available in each action location and subsequently align to the respective TVET and professional diploma courses to be offered by target TVET centers. It is envisaged that this assessment will exclusively focus on high-growth sectors in Somaliland and how this will be streamlined with the existing TVET capacities and job centers to provide market-driven opportunities for young women and men with and without disabilities (15% with disabilities). The review will also focus on identifying specific skills and training for women and girls to enhance their competitiveness in the labor market. Various Ministries will support the assessment including the Ministry of Employment and Social Affairs, MOE&S and the Somaliland Chamber of Commerce, the all ministries will be coordinated by the MESAF with substantial support from the consortium, to ensure the overall quality and expectations of the assessment are systematically gauged. The assessment will be conducted by an experienced research consultant with substantive experience and skills in Labor Market Systems, job creation, TVET, and economic inclusion. In this context CARE-s Horumarinta Elmiga project intend to increase the participation of youths and adults in quality technical and vocational education and training linked to employment and economic opportunities. The project acknowledges that in Somaliland, Labor Market Assessment Surveys have been conducted in the past mostly by agencies implementing vocational skills training. These studies had a narrow focus, primarily on understanding the relevance of the various skills provided to trainees by organizations and giving advice on the market demands of such skills. The result was used to tailor the training to the market needs. However, the private sector investment in Somaliland is increasingly generating a dynamic labor market. There is a need to understand the opportunities that exist for youth in the labor market and in premises sectors.
