Job Title: Learning and Strategic Communications Specialist, Nigeria Third Party Monitoring Project
Location: Abuja
Project Summary
The purpose of the Nigeria Third Party Monitoring Project (NTPMP) contract is to provide independent, verifiable, primary data regarding the outputs and quality of humanitarian assistance activities funded by the United States Agency for International Development’s Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (USAID/BHA) in Nigeria through comprehensive third-party monitoring (TPM).
TPM is necessary to ensure USAID/BHA has sufficient information to perform oversight and accountability of implementing partner (IP) activities.
