At Restless Development we have a Big Idea: mobilise young people,
empower them with knowledge, data and technology, and the skills to
demand change effectively and they’ll drive accountability at a local,
national and global level. We’re now testing this hypothesis with our
Big Idea Programme, a multidisciplinary approach to youth-led
accountability. The Big Idea Programme is launching with pilot projects
in Tanzania, Nepal and Ghana where young people will generate and
interrogate data, and use it to push for greater participation and
increased accountability from decision makers on specific national
agendas that matter to them.
As part of the programme development phase Restless Development
consulted extensively with local partners and conducted desk based
research, through these processes we identified a significant gap in
data about young people. The purpose of this consultancy is to analyse
the extent to which key partners in Tanzania are lacking credible,
usable data on young people upon which they can develop effective youth
policies and programmes, and recommend how to take this forward in the
Post 2015 framework. The role of the consultant will be to research
available data on young people in at least four national organisations
and make recommendations commenting on the opportunities and challenges
of youth data.
