Job Description

Call for Data Collectors for a MidLine Survey

Nature-Based Climate Adaptation in the Guinean Forests of West Africa Project

Target Regions/Country : Ashanti and Western Regions, Ghana
Data collection timeline : July - August 2025
Estimated Assignment Duration: 10 to 15 days.

Context
The NbS Guinean Forests Project funded by Global Affairs Canada (GAC) is being implemented in Guinea, Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana by a consortium made up of the World University Service of Canada (EUMC) and the Centre d’Etude de Coopération Internationale (CECI). To ensure the delivery of the project’s implementation strategy, the Consortium is working closely with the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the Center for International Forestry Research and the International Center for Research in Agroforestry (CIFOR-ICRAF), ABANTU for Development in Ghana and the University of Guelph (through the International BarCode of Life Association).

The NBS project aims to strengthen the uptake of gender-responsive and inclusive climate change adaptation (CCA) solutions among communities residing in the Guinean forest region of Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana and Guinea. This will be accomplished by improving women's leadership in CCA planning processes, increasing the restoration of degraded forests and key habitats with biodiversity benefits, and increasing gender-sensitive investments that have a strong earning potential for women. The NBS project is engaged with a wide range of stakeholders including women's organizations and local and national organizations to prioritize locally relevant solutions. Six landscapes are targeted by the NBS project with two in each country respectively; Ghana: Lake Bosumtwi and the Wassa Amenfi Landscapes, Guinea: Kouroukan and Madina Oula Forest Reserves and Côte d’Ivoire: Loh Djiboua (Divo Botanical reserve) and the Nawa region (Tai National Park).

Assignment Objective

The objective of the survey is to provide answers as to the progress in the implementation of the project in terms of intermediate/immediate results and sound arguments that support the project's theory of change (ToC) assumptions or help revise them where necessary and appropriate. Within this framework, a midline survey is planned to assess progress and identify any necessary adjustments.
