Background:
USAID/Uganda Biodiversity for Resilience (B4R) Activity is a five-year Program (2020-2025) whose aim is to assist communities, the Government of Uganda (GOU), and the private sector to conserve and manage biodiversity in target ecosystems for lasting environmental and economic sustainability and for increased community and household resilience. The Activity is implemented by RTI in a consortium with AWF, CTPH and Viamo in the following four target landscapes: Kidepo, Murchison, Lake Mburo (Rurambira) and Budongo. The project plans to undertake a baseline survey and Lokori, Kabedo, Karenga Town Council and Lobalangit Sub Counties in Karenga District, which fall under Kidepo landscape have been selected for the survey. As such, the USAID/Uganda Biodiversity for Resilience Activity wishes to recruit and is soliciting applications from qualified candidates from Karenga District to be recruited as enumerators for the baseline survey data collection in Karenga
Duration: April 23-27
Purpose & Justification: Enumerators will participate in the baseline survey data collection to benchmark indicator value for the economic benefits indicator. The survey aims to generate empirical data on baseline performance value of the indicator at the start of the Activity, which will act as reference point for assessing indicator performance value and impact of activity implementation over time, on an annual basis and at the end of the Activity.
Planned Activities: The baseline survey activity will entail primary data collection which will be done by locally recruited enumerators from the survey target landscape areas. The enumerators will be trained and the survey instrument pre-tested before deploying to the field for the actual data collection.
