Established in 1951, IOM is a Related Organization of the United Nations, and as the leading UN agency in the field of migration, works closely with governmental, intergovernmental, and non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants.

With the support of the IOM Development Fund, IOM and the government of the

United Republic of Tanzania and the Prime Minister’s Office – Disaster Management Department (DMD), are undertaking a project which has as its objective to contribute to strengthening the capacity of the United Republic of Tanzania in Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR).

Capacity-building through training is one of the project outputs under this project. This will require a good training manual. IOM and DMD are seeking an expert who can develop an Integrated Disaster Management Training Manual on DRR. The manual shall contain important information including the specific, measurable, and realistic learning objectives, targeting participants with clear and complete course content but also the methodology and tools for assessing participants’ learning and progress, (i.e. evaluation). This will begin by reviewing DMD’s existing disaster management training manual and developing a new edition therefrom. The training manual will consider the integration of the specific needs of women, men, girls and boys, vulnerable groups’ needs and cultural diversity into DRR.

The general responsibility of the Consultant is to provide leadership and direction in developing an integrated disaster management training manual. The Consultant will work with disaster management stakeholders from different institutions to agree on potential hazards in the country that needs attention and will step-by-step facilitate the process of developing the manual. They will jointly scan the Tanzanian environment for disasters, cover the context under which certain disasters occur, analyse causality, determine, and provide evidence base for strategies that are known to work.
