The Biodiversity Results and Integrated Development Gains Enhanced (BRIDGE) project is a five-year project (2015-2020) managed by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Bureau of Economic Growth, Education and Environment\u2019s (E3) Office of Forestry and Biodiversity (FAB). The BRIDGE project builds on lessons learned and impacts generated by many years of USAID initiatives to promote and support efforts to integrate biodiversity conservation with other key development sectors: food security, global health, economic growth, democracy, human rights and governance and climate change.<\/p>\n

Job Description<\/strong><\/p>\n Job Title:\u00a0Local Fisheries Expert<\/strong><\/p>\n Activity Overview and Purpose:<\/strong><\/p>\n Technically sound and politically savvy development programming requires explicit consideration of context, political factors and power dynamics. Political economy analysis (PEA) is a powerful way to make the political context and dynamics explicit. PEA is the first step in building a development practitioner culture where individuals instinctively try to understand political dynamics and see that understanding as core to how they professionally engage in international development programming. This is a disposition referred to as thinking and working politically (TWP). In the biodiversity sector, the PEA process can improve TWP by promoting a deeper understanding of the political context that drive threats to biodiversity and facilitate or constrain biodiversity conservation strategies and programming. It can also refine a theory of change by testing particular assumptions, examining specific aspects of causal relationships through a political lens, and support the creation of politically focused interventions. A better understanding of these dynamics can help practitioners unpack the \u201cpolitical will\u201d box and identify ways to address the political constraints, either through design, adaptive management, or integration with other sectors.<\/p>\n USAID\u2019s Sustainable Fisheries Management Program (SFMP) is working closely with Ghana\u2019s Ministry of Fishing and Aquaculture Development (MOFAD) and the Fisheries Commission to address the problems of overfishing and illegal fishing through a series of reforms. This includes a registration program for the artisanal and small-scale canoes and limited and regulated landing sites for industrial catches. USAID Ghana is interested in using a PEA to explore different questions related to the Ghanaian fisheries sector and the related reforms and regulations. The BRIDGE project will provide technical and logistical support to the Ghana fisheries PEA including follow up support to learn from and apply the findings.<\/p>\n Assignment Overview and Purpose:<\/strong><\/p>\n The Local Fisheries Expert will work as part of a team led by the PEA Expert, to synthesize and analyze existing information, conduct key stakeholder consultations and site visits to ground-truth information and contribute to a report that will address issue-areas such as:<\/p>\n Tasks:<\/strong><\/p>\n Deliverables:<\/strong><\/p>\n Qualifications:<\/strong><\/p>\n The Biodiversity Results and Integrated Development Gains Enhanced (BRIDGE) project is a five-year project (2015-2020) managed by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Bureau of Economic Growth, Education…..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6721,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}}},"categories":[135],"tags":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2nO32-8Hk","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/joblistghana.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33438"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/joblistghana.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/joblistghana.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/joblistghana.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6721"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/joblistghana.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=33438"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/joblistghana.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33438\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/joblistghana.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33438"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/joblistghana.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=33438"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/joblistghana.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=33438"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
