Project Summary:
Through the USAID/Ethiopia and Djibouti Learning Analytics Activity (LAA), MSI is tasked to conduct an endline evaluation of the Djibouti Early Grade Reading Activity (DEGRA). DEGRA is a five-year (February 2019 – September 2024) activity that aims to improve reading proficiency in primary schools (grades 1 – 5) with more than 55,000 children and was implemented in Djibouti (country-wide) by FHI 360. The Activity implemented a coordinated approach to engage teachers, communities and Ministry of Education and Vocational Training (MENFOP) to catalyze change and create an inclusive, gender-equitable and enriching environment for reading at school, community, and policy levels. With the development of quality material and teacher’s training, the activity aimed to ensure the use of instructional practices for reading, tailored to children’s needs and based on regular assessments. Parent-teacher associations (PTAs) and civil society organizations (CSOs) were also supported with activities that encourage reading in the community such as festivals, tutoring, and reading at home. The activity helped also MENFOP establish a technical commission to make a policy decision that will formalize the reading reforms supported by the activity.
Position Summary:
The Team Reading Leader will be responsible for the overall management of the evaluation and provide overall technical leadership support, with guidance from USAID/Ethiopia and Djibouti LAA. The Leader will oversee the evaluation team’s efforts to effectively design, collect and evaluate data, prepare report, and submit high quality deliverables. The estimated level of effort (LOE) is tentatively 60 days, and the expected performance period for this activity is to start in the third week of July 2024 and is expected to be completed in December 2024. The LOE will be finalized during revised once the evaluation design is complete.
