IOM Request for Expressions of Interest for Consultants

IOM is seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified and experienced individuals to undertake a consultancy involving the development of an internal research training package. Deadline: Monday 12 September 2022 (17:00 CEST).

The Migration Research and Publications Division (MRPD) is based at IOM Headquarters within the Department of Policy and Research and has the institutional responsibility for supporting the conduct and management of applied research on salient migration topics. Research is designed to enhance IOM’s programme delivery and contribute to a broader understanding of migration patterns and processes, as well as the links between migration research and migration policy and practice.

To better service the needs of IOM employees, MRPD is seeking to develop a two-day training package covering the fundamentals of research production and management in IOM utilizing existing resources as well as new ones. The package will ideally follow a train-the-trainer model and be targeted at research focal points, employees with research and/or data roles, regional thematic specialists and regional liaison and policy officers. The training will be delivered on a rolling basis across IOM Regional Offices, and to a lesser extent at IOM Country Offices.

Letters of interest and the curriculum vitae of interested consultants, including a cost quotation and references,  should be submitted to research@iom.int.  All expressions of interest will be treated confidentially.

The IOM encourage EoIs from consultants currently/previously working in training development and with working knowledge of carrying out research in the UN or other international organisations.
