Program Background
RTI International is requesting CVs/resumes for short-term consulting opportunities in support of the USAID-funded Sustainable Fish Asia Local Capacity Development (SUFIA) program. The goal of SUFIA is to improve the management of marine biodiversity and fisheries resources in the Indo-Pacific region by reducing unsustainable fishing and illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing. The two main objectives of SUFIA are: 1) to enhance the performance, viability and compliance of two regional fisheries organizations; and, 2) to identify private sector engagement opportunities towards investments and adoption of sustainable fishing and fair labor practices in the Asia-Pacific region.
The two-year, USAID-funded project is implemented by RTI International, an independent organization dedicated to conducting innovative, multi-disciplinary research that improves the human conditions.
A range of technical consultancies will support organizational capacity development of two regional fisheries organizations (based in Bangkok, Thailand and Manado, Indonesia) focused on promoting regional sustainable fishing practices.
USAID SUFIA to this effect is inviting interested, eligible and competent individuals to respond on their willingness to be shortlisted to provide capacity development consultancies on the following topics:
- Finance, Procurement and Administration
- Human Resources
- Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning
- Strategic Communications
- Business Development/Proposal Development
- Information and Communications Technology
- Organizational Sustainability for Partnership Development
- Gender-sensitive and Socially Inclusive Communications and Programming
The objectives of the assignment are:
· To provide capacity building activities relevant to the two regional fisheries organizations
· Based on the Capacity Development Action Plans developed with the two regional organizations, design a capacity development module to address the gaps on the specific subject area
· To develop the materials and deliver the capacity development module within the given time frame
· To document the process of implementing the modules through an Activity Report
