About CRS:
Catholic Relief Services is the official international humanitarian agency of the Catholic community in the United States. CRS works to save, protect, and transform lives in need in more than 100 countries, without regard to race, religion or nationality. CRS' relief and development work is accomplished through programs of emergency response, HIV, health, agriculture, education, microfinance and peacebuilding.
CRS has worked in Indonesia since 1957, providing reliable long-term development assistance across decades of momentous growth and change and humanitarian assistance in the aftermath of recurrent, devastating disasters. With its main office in Jakarta and field teams frequently deployed across Indonesia's 13,000 islands, CRS has built its reputation over the last two decades through a two-pronged programmatic approach. First, CRS has established strong, mutually beneficial partnerships with Indonesian civil society organizations and government stakeholders through successive rounds of programs building organizational capacity for emergency response and DRR in both urban and rural settings. Then, in times of disaster, CRS has been able to mobilize these partnerships to implement rapid, responsive, and innovative humanitarian interventions, from the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami up through the 2018 Lombok and Palu earthquakes.
CRS/Indonesia is currently looking for Endline Data Collection Enumerator Increasing Resiliency through CCA and DRR in Nusa Tenggara (INCIDENT) Project , Job Code: INCIDENT_ENUM
PURPOSE
The purpose of this Scope of Work (SoW) is to describe the enumerator's roles and responsibilities to support Catholic Relief Services (CRS) Indonesia for endline data collection for the INCIDENT project using CommCare.
BACKGROUND
East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) and West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) are amongst the very least developed parts of the Indonesian archipelago, with 60% of the combined 32 regencies in both provinces classified as highly prone to disasters. Communities rely on subsistence agriculture constrained by poor soil fertility, inadequate agriculture inputs and recurrent climate events and risks, especially drought and erratic rainfall. The region is the most food insecure in Indonesia, with recurrent food shortages during the lean season. Prevailing socio-economic and environmental conditions exasperate the impacts of climate change on the agriculture sector.
In response to the current and projected climate change impacts and intrinsic vulnerability of NTT and NTB, World Neighbors (WN) and Catholic Relief Services (CRS) are implementing the Increasing Resiliency through CCA and DRR in Nusa Tenggara (INCIDENT), a 24-month activity funded by BHA to improve the long-term resilience of vulnerable communities in NTT and NTB. The project builds on the successes and leverages lessons learned from previous WN and CRS programming in the region.
The goal of INCIDENT is that vulnerable communities in NTT and NTB achieve long-term resilience to climate and disaster shocks and stresses. The project activities will fall under three purposes: 1) By 2024, vulnerable communities in targeted regencies effectively prepare for and adapt to the impacts of climate change and disasters through improved agricultural practices; 2) By 2024, communities, local government authorities (LGAs), NGOs/CBOs and other key stakeholders in targeted regencies effectively prepare, mitigate and adapt to disaster and climate risks; and 3) By 2024, vulnerable households in targeted regencies are more financially resilient. The project started on May 1, 2022, and will end on August 31, 2024.
The purpose of the endline evaluation is to assess the performance of the INCIDENT project. This evaluation will determine the final outcome indicators values and evaluate the project based on criteria including 1: relevance, effectiveness, impact, sustainability, and gender. The goal is to produce evidence-based recommendations for future projects, allowing for more effective implementation of similar projects. This will enable project design to be with better adapted to specific needs and evidence-based approaches.
. The endline study will use mixed methodology of household surveys, key informant interviews and focus group discussions.
