CIFOR-ICRAF
The
Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) and World
Agroforestry (ICRAF) envision a more equitable world where trees in all
landscapes, from drylands to the humid tropics, enhance the environment
and well-being for all. CIFOR and ICRAF are non-profit science
institutions that build and apply evidence to today’s most pressing
challenges, including energy insecurity and the climate and biodiversity
crises.
Over a combined total of
65 years, we have built vast knowledge on forests and trees outside of
forests in agricultural landscapes (agroforestry). Using a
multidisciplinary approach, we seek to improve lives and to protect and
restore ecosystems. Our work focuses on innovative research, partnering
for impact, and engaging with stakeholders on policies and practices to
benefit people and the planet. Founded in 1993 and 1978, CIFOR and ICRAF
are members of CGIAR, a global research partnership for a food secure
future dedicated to reducing poverty, enhancing food and nutrition
security, and improving natural resources.
CIFOR-ICRAF is looking for a A Consultancy – Household survey
Overview
The
International Centre for Research in Agroforestry (ICRAF) in
cooperation with the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK)
and Sustainable Agriculture Tanzania (SAT) is implementing a research
project on the adoption of innovative agroforestry approaches for
holistic climate-resilience in the regions of Morogoro and Dodoma in
Tanzania. A household survey will be implemented to cover 910 households
in 12 villages in Morogoro and Dodoma from September 2024 to January
2025.
The goal of the SCARF project is to identify, pilot and
improve innovative agroforestry approaches to accelerate the long-term
uptake of farm-level adaptation practices in the agricultural sector.
Many good agricultural practices that are implemented to support
households vulnerable to climate change challenges fail because their
design did either not consider the specific socio-economic conditions,
gender-aspects and differing realities of the targeted groups or the
biophysical conditions in the specific area of implementation and how
climate change may alter those.
Duties and responsibilities
1. Objectives of the assignment
The
objective of this assignment is to examine the effects of agroforestry
implementation by conducting a household survey. This survey will build
upon four waves of existing panel data from the Tanzania Socioeconomic
Panel (TaSEP) and a baseline survey conducted as part of the SCARF
Project in Dodoma and Morogoro, Tanzania.
2. Tasks and Deliverables
The following indicative task and associated deliverables are expected at the end of this assignment:
-
Develop data collection tools (e.g., questionnaire guides, and consent
