Key responsibilities

  • Participatory scenario planning (PSP/ITK) forums
  • Co-design two PSP/ITK rounds with DRC and partners (indicatively March and September 2027, ahead of each rainy season), including timing, sites, participants and a target for women's participation.
  • Co-facilitate forums in Lokiriama (Turkana), Alale (West Pokot) and Moroto (Uganda) with county and district governments, meteorological services, CBOs, elders, women and youth. Each round is about 8–9 field days.
  • Bring together elders' ITK forecasts and seasonal forecasts from the Kenya Meteorological Service Authority (KMSA) and Uganda's meteorological services.
  • Draft the three community advisories for each round immediately after the forums, with clear guidance on who does what.
  • Collect and analyse evidence of advisory uptake after each round: who received the advisories, through which channels (partners, local radio, barazas, market days, digital), what households, groups and institutions did as a result, and with what results, by gender and location. Lead joint partner debriefs after each round.
  • Anticipatory action technical support
  • Provide the anticipatory action lens to the programme's learning: the early warning and action findings of the Outcome and Learning Assessment, quarterly learning reports and consortium learning sessions. This includes analysing barriers to anticipatory action (timing and format of forecasts, trust, access for women and youth, resources to act, mobility and conflict) and drawing lessons for policy and institutional engagement with county and district governments, meteorological services and cross-border structures.

  • Attend quarterly cross-border climate coordination meetings to present forum findings.
  • Communications and dissemination
  • Provide technical input to a video story on early warning and anticipatory action, and to a webinar on PSP and anticipatory action learning.
  • Develop practical lessons and recommendations for policy and institutional engagement.

  • Prepare the joint partner debrief and the design of the March 2027 PSP round.
  • Expected deliverables
  • Initial technical review and advisory uptake note.
  • Community validation workshops and a short feedback note.
  • Two PSP rounds and six community advisories.
  • Advisory uptake findings and partner debriefs.
