Location: Kigali, Rwanda, with occasional travel to the Western and Northern regions

Contract duration: 1 year renewable

Expected starting date: February 2025

General context:

Expertise France is the French public agency for international cooperation. The Agency focuses on four priority areas:

Stability of countries in crisis/post-crisis situations and security;
Combating climate change and favoring sustainable urban development;
Strengthening health systems, social protection and employment.

In these areas, Expertise France engineers and implements capacity-building projects, mobilises technical expertise and acts as a project coordinator, bringing together public expertise and private know-how. With a business volume of 390 million euros and over 400 projects in 145 countries, Expertise France’s activities are part of France’s international cooperation policy and official development assistance.

Overview of the projects:

The Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability and Learning (MEAL) Officer will work on the following two projects:

TEI MAV+ project (Health / Human Capital and Social Development / September 2024 – August 2028 / 48 Months)

The African Union Commission and the African Centres for Disease Control and Prevention call for local production of 60% of Africa’s needed vaccines by 2040 as well as expanded local manufacturing of other health products. The European Union and Member States are supporting these goals through the Team Europe Initiative on manufacturing and access to vaccines, medicines and health technologies in Africa (TEI MAV+).

The overall aim of the TEI MAV+ project is to strengthen the local manufacture of medicines and healthcare products in Rwanda, and the population’s equitable access to these products, by enhancing the skills of the personnel needed for the various pharmaceutical professions, and by stimulating research and the development of new products and processes. Expertise France’s overall budget to implement the project activities is € 17,000,000 over 4 years.

Expertise France together with the German cooperation (GIZ), the Belgian cooperation (Enabel) and the Swedish cooperation (SIDA) as well as with the support of national institutions (Ministry of Education, Ministry of Health, Universities, Research Centres) and with international support, will help to reinforce and maintain a strong pharmaceutical ecosystem.

TVET Agri project(Human Capital and Social Development / October 2024 – October 2029 / 60 months)

Representing 25% of GDP and 70% of the active workforce in Rwanda, agriculture is a key sector targeted by the Rwandan Government to boost the economy and create jobs. Developing agricultural skills is a priority for transforming the sector, with the national goal of establishing Centres of Excellence for technical and vocational education and training (TVET) in agriculture. These centres aim to develop a new generation of skilled professionals capable of driving sustainable agricultural development and contributing to food security, economic growth, and improved livelihoods for rural communities in Rwanda.

The TVET Agri project aims to support the Rwanda TVET Board (RTB) in establishing Centres of Excellence in agriculture, and to enhance the sustainability, climate resilience, and inclusiveness of agricultural practices by strengthening the skills of women and youth in Rwanda. The project is structured around two specific objectives, with a specific focus on gender:

Improve women’s and youth’s access to quality skills and formal certification in agricultural practices.
Enhance the effectiveness of mechanisms to integrate women and youth into the agricultural labour market, with a focus on sustainable agriculture.

The project will be implemented over five years with a budget of €16.2 million from the EU and French Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It will include technical assistance at the national level, as well as support to two TVET centres in the Western and Northern regions through technical assistance, infrastructure rehabilitation, and the provision of agricultural equipment.
