About the programme:
Kenya is the largest economy in East Africa and has for many years been the economic and democratic stronghold amongst conflict and poverty ridden neighbours. However, electoral violence, corruption and a lack of accountability have undermined the Government’s ability to ensure inclusive growth and service delivery. Kenya’s Vision 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are ambitious, but success is possible where reforms are well-grounded in political and economic realities, sequenced and focused on improving tangible services to citizens. To achieve more inclusive and accountable governance, and ensure effective poverty reduction and better public services, Kenya requires credible and non-violent elections, stronger performance and interaction of formal oversight institutions, and citizens and a civil society that mobilise for improved responsiveness and accountability of officials. DFID has designed the Deepening Democracy Programme (DDP) to support formal accountability institutions, civil society organisations and other accountability mechanisms to contribute to this change.
The combined impact of DDP is more inclusive and accountable governance in Kenya. DDP has two main results areas - electoral and non-electoral accountability. Electoral accountability will be strengthened through (i) supporting more credible elections in 2017 and the future; (ii) improving civic engagement in elections; and (iii) contributing to a more inclusive electoral process for historically marginalised groups (e.g. women).
Non-electoral accountability will focus on supporting state and non-state accountability and oversight institutions on a demand driven basis by (i) strengthening capacity of and facilitating linkages between formal oversight agencies; supporting climate change governance reforms; and (ii) supporting civil society to improve their participation and advocacy on key issues such as planning, budgeting, climate change, and service delivery.
Scope of work:
The Senior Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) Officer will be the most senior point of contact, support and guidance on M&E for DDPs grantees. He/she will help translate DDP MEL needs to other Monitoring, Evaluation, Adaptation and Learning (MEAL) staff and to the grantees themselves. He/she will analyse, plan and help meet any capacity building needs the grantee organisations may have in MEL. The Senior MEL Officer will work closely with the Grants Programme team, the Communications & M&E Specialist, and other DDP technical staff to ensure that DDP is providing coherent, coordinated support to its grantees. He/she will report directly to the MEAL Director and will lead in translating the MEL ‘ground reality’ of DDP grantees to the MEAL Director. The Senior MEL Officer will be based in the Nairobi office, with 20% travel to grantee offices and implementation sites throughout other counties.
