RESEARCH ADVISER –
Advocacy & Campaign
1 position, based in Jakarta
Code :
RA-AC
ROLE PURPOSE:
The
Research Adviser will play a role in building research and policy
content for Save the Children’s next global campaign through the
Exclusion Mapping Project. This project is being piloted by
Save the Children Tanzania, Save the Children Indonesia and with
support from Save the Children UK. This project will pilot a diagnostic
toolkit to identify which children are excluded and the drivers behind
their exclusion. This project will demonstrate how
excluded children can be identified and their financial and
discriminatory barriers more systematically understood. The project will
be designed in consultation with national statistics authorities, local
academics and other organizations working on exclusion
and data to engage their expertise as well as build longer-term
relationships with these actors in support of other activities connected
to the campaign.
Priorities
for this role will include understanding the links between group-based
inequalities and development, using available quantitative data to map
exclusion across Indonesia, identifying
information gaps on particular groups of children and particular
drivers of exclusion, and helping to design a mixed methods tool to fill
those information gaps and to design advocacy outputs aimed at
highlighting who are the excluded children in Indonesia,
what are the drivers of their exclusion, and how policies and
programmes can be better designed to address their particular needs. The
role will require leading on research in exclusion, quantitative and
qualitative research design and analysis, and producing
briefings and publications that bring together relevant strands of our
this work.
