Abundant Food, Unlimited Potential
Land O’Lakes Venture37 (Venture37) invites proposals to conduct a rapid assessment for the Zambia Accelerated Innovation Delivery Initiative in Livestock (AIDI-L) project. AIDI-L is implemented by the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) with partner, Venture37 from August 1, 2023 – December 31, 2024. The project aims to increase the production of and access to poultry meat and eggs in Central, Lusaka, and Copperbelt Provinces through improving application of improved poultry husbandry practices and access to inputs (breeding stock, vaccinations, mobile kraals) for dual purpose and commercial poultry farmers.
The rapid assessment will document the current status of poultry producers and input providers in the target regions and set the project baseline values for key metrics. The assessment will also determine potential differences in participation and benefits for men, women and youth in production and input provision.
The assignment will last from January – March 2024. Applicants are expected to have strong experience in conducting assessments of similar scope with expertise in poultry production. Experience conducting fieldwork in the key provinces is preferred.
To receive a full copy of the request for proposals, including application instructions, interested parties should email Meredith Saggers at [email protected]. Final proposal must be received by or before Wednesday, December 6th at 5pm Zambia time.
