Brave Program<\/strong><\/p>\nTerms of Reference (ToRs) for Consultant Assessment on Status of Shelters in Kenya<\/strong>
1. Background<\/strong><\/p>\nThe Jasiri Consortium comprising Centre For Rights Education and Awareness (CREAW), Grassroots Organizations Operating Together in Sisterhood (GROOTS Kenya), Collaborative Center for Gender and Development (CCGD), Centre for Domestic Training and Development (CDTD) and Advocates for Social Change Kenya (ADSOCK) are jointly implementing the Jasiri Program for a period of 5 years (2023-2028).<\/p>\n
Shelters play a critical role in offering safe spaces for these survivors, yet they are limited in number and often run by private individuals or civil society organizations, with few operated by government entities. Many shelters lack standard operating procedures and face significant resource constraints.
\nIn line with the Consortium’s commitment to enhancing the effectiveness of these shelters, some of our key interventions will focus on advocacy for policy development and the establishment of a legal framework to support shelter operations and survivor services. An assessment of the status of shelters will be conducted, and a policy paper will be developed based on the findings. In this regard, we seek a consultant to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the status of shelters across 16 targeted counties in Kenya( Nairobi, Kiambu, Kajiado, Nyeri, Meru, Mombasa, Kilifi, Kwale, Samburu, Baringo, Busia, Kakamega, Bungoma, Tana River, Mandera, Garissa. ).<\/p>\n
