Mercy Corps is a leading global organization powered by the belief that a better world is possible. In disaster, in hardship, in more than 40 countries around the world, we partner to put bold solutions into action, helping people triumph over adversity and build stronger communities now, and in the future.
Mercy Corps has worked in Jordan since 2003 to implement a variety of programs funded by global public institutions, as well as private donors to meet the urgent needs of vulnerable populations, build cohesive and civically engaged communities, and increase inclusive economic opportunities. Mercy Corps’ current portfolio in Jordan focuses on three domains: resilient individuals, strong communities and governance, and environmentally sustainable and inclusive economic growth. Mercy Corps integrates cross-cutting themes of youth, gender equality, and empowerment, governance, natural resource management, and technology.
The Informal Livelihoods Advancement Activity (IQLAA) is a five-year activity that aims to put Jordanian Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) on a path to recovery after the extraordinary crisis that the businesses have faced, help them access the safety net measures in Jordan, and, most importantly, regain productivity and growth.
Mercy Corps’ approach to IQLAA integrates direct assistance with market systems development (MSD) interventions to support MSEs along the full journey from recovery to growth and resilience. Grounded in evidence-based, adaptive, and inclusive support, Jordan’s MSEs can emerge from the COVID-19 crisis stronger and more resilient, transformed through new ways of doing business and improved access to finance markets, and services. Understanding that women, youth, and people living with disabilities (PLWD) face unique constraints to starting up and leading resilient MSEs, Mercy Corps design will infuse a Gender, Youth, and Social Inclusion (GYSI) lens throughout all interventions. Mercy Corps approach is committed to supporting MSEs to build back, formalize, and grow, emphasizing systems-level change, equitable opportunities, and a dignified work environment for all women, men, and youth, and PLWD in Jordan.
The Research and Learning Coordinator will support the Research and Learning Lead in supervising the design and implementation of all activities related to conducting formative research and market analyses, particularly those included under Component 1 of the Activity. The component focuses on research initiatives aimed at informing intervention design for IQLAA and influencing the private and public sectors in better serving Jordanian MSEs. S/he will coordinate with project partners to facilitate their contribution to Iqlaa’s research activities. S/he will contribute to the vetting of subcontractors, supervise their work, coordinate with market actors and stakeholders to ensure their participation in and their feedback on Iqlaa’s research activities, and ensure that the know-how is being transferred to them in regard to conducting effective research that feeds into proper decision making.
