The Somali Institute for Development Research and Analysis (SIDRA) provides quality research and development services to public and private entities in Somalia. SIDRA offers technical innovative solutions through knowledge- based policy researches, policy briefings, capacity building and policy change and informing projects. We generate new knowledge that contributes to addressing the obstacles to the development of Somalia. Our studies, Policy Briefs and Projects mainly focus on Gender and Women’s Empowerment, Good Governance and Democracy and Socio-economic Development of Somalia. SIDRA since 2015 has been a fully registered and licensed non- governmental research and policy support organisation within Puntland State and Federal Government of Somalia.

Puntland Education Cannot Wait (ECW) Multi-Year Resilience Programme (MYRP) targets to improve learning and wellbeing of 400,000 children and youth affected by crises in Puntland. It will extend education opportunities to primary school children from the most disadvantaged & socially excluded children from urban poor host communities, IDP communities and returnees through primary education, Accelerated Education Programmes (AEP) and alternative basic education (ABE). The project also targets duty bearers as a means of fulfilling the education related child rights of the primary target group. Duty bearers include the MoEHE and local education authorities, community education committees, parents, guardians, community members and teachers.

It is from that background that SIDRA is looking for a programme Coordinator to run this project and also provide administrative and coordination support to SIDRA’s other projects as conductively possible. III
