Jordan Economic Growth Support; Position number: 10115.  STATEMENT OF 
WORK: Background: The USAID/Nigeria program is among the largest and most 
complex USAID programs in sub-Saharan Africa.  Interventions promote peace and 
stability, improve governance, foster non-oil economic growth, increase the delivery of 
quality education and health services, and heighten prevention and treatment of 
HIV/AIDS to include mitigating its effect on families and communities.  The U.S. 
President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and President's Malaria

April 2015 elections.  The program should look at unique award mechanisms, such

project, in order to improve efficiency and ensure sustainability of USAID's 
investments in domestic election monitoring activities.  Deliverables: Task One: A 
detailed concept paper which provides background information and identifies 
specific interventions to support INEC.  The concept paper would identify specific 
objectives and components for working with INEC to promote free and fair elections 
in 2015 and beyond.  A detailed Scope of Work for the implementing mechanism, 
including cost-benefit analysis.  Task Two: A detailed concept paper which provides 
background information and identifies specific interventions for a Domestic Election 
Monitoring program.  A detailed Scope of Work for a Domestic Election Monitoring 
program.  The SOW will expand on the work done for the concept paper and further

impact, as well as the cost-benefit analysis of the proposed interventions.  
QUALIFICATIONS: The following qualifications are preferred: 10 years of 
experience in the design and implementation of electoral process strengthening and

Position information: Consulting opportunity; Performance dates: May 20, 2013 to 
November 20, 2013; Title: Gender Integration Toolkit for Democracy, Human 
Rights, and Governance; Position reference: 10117.  Background: Over the past two 
years, USAID has taken dramatic steps to more effectively advance gender equality 
and women's empowerment throughout its work.  This effort is built upon a new 
architecture of recently released policies and strategies.  The next phase is 
implementing policy objectives, and ensuring that advancing gender equality and 
female empowerment becomes an integral part of everything we do as an agency.  
USAID's recent elevation of the Democracy and Governance office to a Center of 
Excellence on Democracy, Human Rights, and Governance (DRG) recognizes that 
supporting the development of more democratic, better governed societies is critical 
to achieving our development goals.  Incorporating gender analysis in the work of 
the DRG Center and our DRG Offices in the field will allow us to identify areas of 
opportunity to better advance gender equality and women's empowerment.  To 
achieve the DRG Center's objectives and meet Agency aspirations regarding gender 
equality and female empowerment, the DRG Center is working to develop a 
practical, evidence-based toolkit to guide DRG Officers on how best to integrate 
gender considerations into DRG programming.  Scope of Work: 
USAID/DCHA/DRG is seeking an individual with experience addressing gender 
issues in the field of democracy, human rights, and governance to lead the 
development of a Gender Integration Toolkit for DRG programming, drawing on 
existing Agency resources in coordination with the DRG Center's Gender Working 
Group (GWG) and other relevant Agency working groups.  The objective is to 
develop a toolkit that is practical, straight-forward, and user-friendly to assist DRG 
officers in Washington and the field in project conceptualization and design.  The 
toolkit would contain 1-2 page modules on integrating gender into DRG sub-sectors 
(i.e., civil society, parliamentary strengthening, anti-corruption, or political party 
support) to be determined through consultation with DRG field officers and DRG 
Center technical teams, including the Gender Working Group.  As the Toolkit is for 
use in project design, the modules must be consistent with new USAID guidance on 
project design and gender analysis.  Deliverables: Conduct an online survey of select 
field officers to identify DRG sub-sectors to address in the first round of modules.  
Using existing data, documents, and discussions with key counterparts to develop 10 
sub-sectoral gender integration modules of approximately two pages in length.  
Guidance and background materials for the survey and modules will be provided as 
part of a Project Order at the beginning of the Consultancy.  Draft a brief (4-8 pages) 
overview on integration of gender into DRG work.  Provide support to the DRG 
Center's Gender Working Group with other tasks to advance gender integration in 
DRG programming as appropriate.  QUALIFICATIONS: At least 2 years of 
experience in addressing gender in democracy, human rights, and governance 
programs.  Experience in an inclusive development approach is desirable.  Advanced 
degree in international development, gender studies, or a related field (current 
graduate students will also be considered).  Knowledge and experience in a range of 
DRG sub-sectors.  Experience working with USAID preferred but not required.  
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.  Strong interpersonal skills, 
ability to work with a team, and to effectively integrate information from a variety of 
sources.  Demonstrated capability to integrate input from a variety of sources and 
develop high quality documents in a timely fashion.  TO APPLY: Please submit the 
following required application materials: a cover letter, CV, writing sample, and 
three references by email to: consulting@usaid.gov.  Write Position #10117 on the 
subject line.  Please also include a salary history utilizing Form AID 1420-17 as part 
of your application.  The form can be found at http://www.usaid.gov/forms.  Only

*Anti-Corruption/ Good Governance Advisor
Cairo, Egypt

There is an opening for an Anti-Corruption/ Good Governance Advisor in Cairo, 
Egypt.  Salary range: Up to $635 daily depending on salary history; Open period: 
Thursday, April 18 to Monday, May 4, 2013; Position information: Consulting 
Opportunity; Performance dates: June/ July 2013 - approximately 6 weeks; Position 
number: 10113.  Background: USAID/Egypt's program has historically been a 
cornerstone of US foreign policy in the region, and this has been magnified with the 
changes that have taken place since the Arab Spring uprisings.  In 2012 the first 
democratically elected civilian President to Egypt came to office, and the White 
House stepped forward to promise a $1 billion economic assistance package.  The 
election of President Mohammed Morsi resulted in a change in government, 
including all ministries, and a change in key partners.  These changes have presented 
a new challenging dynamic aspect to bilateral relationships, as USAID has worked to 
build ties with new counterparts in the government and engage broadly with new 
actors in the Egyptian private sector and civil society.  A long history of poor 
governance in Egypt has left limited opportunity for a frustrated, disenfranchised 
population to resolve their grievances with the government. The mass protests of 
early 2011 were a largely a result of these shortcomings and of a widely held 
perception that there was no means to affect meaningful change through existing 
political processes.  The large-scale corruption disclosed after January 2011 
confirmed to all Egyptians that there is a vital need to build a new governance 
system.  USAID intends to assist Egyptian-led initiatives in addressing some of these 
key issues, as they pertain to selected Government of Egypt (GOE) institutions, civil 
society, and private enterprise.  Scope of Work: USAID/Egypt is seeking an 
experienced anti-corruption/ good governance advisor to take stock of existing 
mission anti-corruption activities, identify opportunities for cross-portfolio 
coordination on anti-corruption, transparency, and governance initiatives, and make 
concrete recommendations for future programming and integration in the form of a 
concept/ options paper.  This document should provide an overview of the status of 
current programs, outline the impact and results of previous activities, and identify 
areas of opportunity for targeted cross-portfolio interventions that complement the 
work of other donors and respond to GOE and USG development priorities.  Where 
feasible, the concept paper should identify potential evaluation opportunities that 
could be incorporated into programming in order to assess impact over time and test 
theories of change.  Building on the recommendation outlined in the options paper 
above, the consultant will support project design for ODG's 'Good Governance' 
program.  The design process will incorporate anti-corruption, decentralization and 
local administration reform, parliamentary strengthening, and fiscal transparency 
interventions in an integrated system that should link with broader DG portfolio 
goals and mission objectives and leverage other donor-funded interventions.  Cross-
cutting issues including gender, civil society, and media should be addressed and 
incorporated into the design process.  The consultant will receive technical guidance 
and input from DG team members to conceptualize and develop new programmatic 
activities in compliance with Agency procedures and requirements.  The final 
deliverable of this design process will be a Project Appraisal Document (PAD) that 
is ready for approval by Mission Management.  Deliverables: The consultant will be 
responsible for the following deliverables: Conduct a comprehensive analysis of past 
and ongoing mission activities in anti-corruption and public accountability with a 
specific emphasis on identifying areas for cross-portfolio coordination between 
technical offices moving forward.  Draft a concept paper that presents options for 
integrated anti-corruption programming, including illustrative interventions that are 
responsive to areas of opportunity in Egypt and complement other donor-funded 
initiatives.  Using the concept paper, existing data and documents, and discussions 
with key counterparts facilitate a comprehensive program design process. Following 
current USAID design guidance, prepare a Project Appraisal Document (PAD) that 
is ready for approval by Mission Management.  QUALIFICATIONS The following 
qualifications are required: Minimum 15 years of experience in the design, 
implementation, and/or evaluation of anti-corruption and good governance 
programs.  Advanced degree in political science, international affairs, development, 
or a related field.  A minimum of seven years of experience working with USAID.  
Demonstrated capability to produce high quality design and analytical documents in 
a timely fashion. TO APPLY: Required Application Materials: The following 
application materials must accompany applications: CV, Writing Sample, Three 
References, Salary History (AID Form 1420-17).  To apply: Please submit a CV and 
cover letter summarizing relevant expertise and experience per the qualifications 
listed above to Consulting@usaid.gov.  Write Position #10113 on the subject line.   
Please include all requested materials. The salary history form can be found at 
http://www.usaid.gov/forms.  Only finalists will be contacted.  No telephone 
inquiries, please.
