Application Deadline	25th November 2025
Sector	Programmed
Type of Consultancy	Research

Research Study: Determining the opportunity and feasibility of innovative climate-smart rice production using SRI method and the integration of climate-smart rice cultivation into climate policies in Grand BassaBackground:1. Background. Snail farming (heliciculture) is emerging as a promising agribusiness opportunity in Liberia, particularly in the forested and humid areas of Grand Bassa and Rivercess Counties. Snails are a valuable source of protein and income for rural households and are increasingly gaining attention due to their low input requirements, ecological benefits, and market potential. Despite this, snail production and trade remain largely informal, with limited data on production systems, market size, value chain actors, and potential for commercialisation. In recent years, small-scale initiatives by farmers and NGOs such as Concern and others have demonstrated the feasibility of snail farming as a livelihood option. However, challenges persist— such as lack of market linkage, limited technical know-how, absence of standard processing and packaging systems, and poor access to finance. A structured market study is therefore critical to understand the value chain and opportunities therein, identify investment opportunities, and promote snail agribusiness as a sustainable source of income, nutrition, and employment— particularly for women and youth.2. Purpose of the Assignment.The purpose of this consultancy is to conduct a market research and value chain analysis of snail production, processing, and marketing in Liberia with focus on Grand Bassa, Rivercess and Montserrado Counties. The assessment will identify key actors, production systems, market demand and supply, existing constraints, and opportunities for investment and scale-up.3. Objectives.• To assess the current state of snail production, collection, and marketing in target counties. • To analyze market demand, pricing trends, profitability and value addition opportunities (e.g., snail meat, shell products, cosmetics use, etc.). • To identify value chain actors, relationships, and enabling or constraining factors. • To determine potential entry points for women and youth engagement and active participation. • To recommend strategies and business models for developing a viable snail value chain.4. Scope of Work• Review relevant literature, policies, and reports on snail farming and marketing in Liberia. • Conduct field surveys, focus group discussions, and key informant interviews with producers, traders, processors, and end users. • Map the value chain (production to market), identifying major actors and flow of products. • Identify barriers/ constraints as per above stated objectives. • Analyze production costs, market prices, and profit margins across actors. • Identify investment opportunities, processing potential, and market linkages (local and regional). • Assess opportunities for women and youth integration in snail agribusiness. • Develop practical recommendations and an implementation roadmap for scaling up.5. Expected Deliverables.• Inception Report – Detailing methodology, tools, and timeline. • Draft Report – Summary of findings, initial analysis, and recommendations. • Final Report (max. 25 pages) – Comprehensive analysis of the snail value chain, including: production systems, market mapping, economic feasibility, and inclusion opportunities and recommendations for Concern programming. • Presentation/Dissemination Workshop – Slide deck summarizing findings and recommendations.6. Duration and Timeline.The consultancy is expected to last 20 working days, distributed as follows: - Inception report – 3 days - Data collection & analysis – 10 days - Draft report – 4 days - Final report & presentation – 3 days7. Consultant Qualifications.• Advanced degree in Agriculture, Agribusiness, Agricultural Economics, Rural Development, or related field. • Proven experience conducting market research or value chain assessments in agriculture or natural resource-based enterprises. • Knowledge of non-conventional livestock (snail farming) or smallholder livelihood systems preferred. • Strong skills in qualitative and quantitative data analysis and report writing. • Experience working in Liberia or similar contexts; familiarity with Grand Bassa and Rivercess an asset. • Excellent communication and facilitation skills.8.

Training will focus on practical areas such as pastry making and catering, cosmetology, and tailoring

Background:

CRS, with support from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), is currently implementing the second year of the Healthy Living through Integrated Nutrition Activities (HELINA IV) project — also referred to as HELINA V. Building on the successes of previous phases, the current implementation period spans from October 1, 2025, to September 30, 2026. The primary objective of HELINA V is to improve the nutritional status of Adolescent Girls and Young Women (AGYW)—particularly those who are pregnant or aged 25 and under—and their children aged 0 to 23 months. To achieve this, the project delivers integrated interventions including nutrition education, livelihood support through vocational and business skills training, promotion of Savings and Internal Lending Communities (SILC), and kitchen gardening. HELINA V is being implemented in the West Point, New Kru Town, and Johnsonville communities within Montserrado County. CRS Liberia is seeking an independent institution or group to deliver income-generating vocational skills training for HELINA V participants in Montserrado County, specifically targeting the Johnsonville and New Kru Town communities.

Purpose:

The purpose of this Terms of Reference (ToR) is to engage the services of a qualified and experienced institution or group that specializes in vocational skills training. The selected entity will be responsible for conducting training for 75 participants of the HELINA V project, located in New Kru Town and Johnsonville. The training will focus on equipping participants with income-generating vocational skills in areas such as pastry making and catering, cosmetology, and tailoring.

Key Activity

The selected service provider will be responsible for implementing a series of vocational training activities aimed at equipping project participants—40 in Johnsonville and 35 in New Kru Town—with foundational, income-generating skills. Training will focus on practical areas such as pastry making and catering, cosmetology, and tailoring. In addition to delivering core training modules, the provider will identify and facilitate on-the-job training opportunities for approximately 30% of the top-performing participants. This will support their transition into self-employment or formal job placement. Upon successful completion of the training, all graduating participants will receive start-up materials to enable them to apply their newly acquired skills and begin generating income to support their livelihoods.

Methodology

The consultant is expected to propose a methodology that effectively facilitates the delivery of vocational training to project participants. While the specific approach may vary based on the consultant’s expertise and experience, it is anticipated that the methodology will incorporate a blended instructional model to ensure comprehensive and practical learning outcomes. This approach should include:

• Practical demonstrations to illustrate key vocational skills in real-time;
• Structured theoretical content delivered through tools such as PowerPoint presentations;
• Hands-on activities that actively engage participants and allow them to practice and internalize the skills being taught.
• Incorporation of innovative approaches that effectively enhance participants' capacities and equip them with the necessary skills to establish and sustain income-generating businesses.

The blended methodology is intended to enhance participant understanding, retention, and application of vocational skills for sustainable income generation.

With a network of experienced professionals in more than 40 countries, we partner with local communities to put bold ideas into action to help people recover, overcome hardship, and build better lives now and for the future. In these places, Mercy Corps listens to local voices to prioritize people’s most urgent needs, taking a long-term view and promoting innovative solutions that drive true change. Mercy Corps Liberia has been working in Liberia since 2002, focusing on youth, agriculture, livelihoods, conflict resolution, and emergency response. Purpose / Project Description: PROSPECTS IV is a 45-month, 48 million SEK programme aiming to directly reach 6,400 young people through improved employment opportunities. The programme applies an MSD approach to facilitate systemic change. It will build on previous Government of Sweden investments through PROSPECTS I – III but will move away from a direct delivery model to place systems change at the heart of the programme. Understanding young people’s structural and systemic challenges in securing employment will be crucial to the programme’s success. PROSPECTS IV is being implemented in four defined urban and peri-urban areas – Monrovia (Montserrado County), Ganta (Nimba County), Kakata (Margibi County), and Gbarnga (Bong County) – with expansion to secondary locations (Bomi County). For the period of 4 years, the program has implemented multiple pilots and scale-up interventions across key sectors including Poultry, FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods), Finance, Technology, Agroprocessing and Informal Norms. To consolidate learnings and inform strategic decision-making, Mercy Corps PROSPECTS IV will host a Program and Partner Reflection Meeting from November 20th. – 21 st ., 2025. The event will provide a structured platform for reflection on program achievements, lesson learned, challenges and opportunities for future programming. The 2-day reflection will bring together Mercy Corps staff, 27 implementing partners, representatives from governments ministries, private sector actors, and civil society organizations to assess results and develop adaptive strategies for future youth economic empowerment initiatives. PROSPECTS IV program has achieved significant achievements: • 24,775 participants engaged by the program for the period of 4 years • 11,863 youth employed in target sectors (Poultry, FMCG, Agro processing, Finance and Informal Norms) • 1,105, 443 public and private sector investment stimulated by the program • Strengthened operational systems, improved gender mainstreaming, and enhanced partner engagement capacity. The Final Reflection and learning are planned to assess progress, capture lessons learned and identify strategic adaptations for the program’s scaling phase. This reflection included two phases: 1. One-day reflection workshop (Phase 2): an internal reflection involving PROSPECTS IV team members, support departments (HR, Finance, Compliance, MEL, Operations, SMT), and an MSD consultant. 2. One-day reflection session: an incorporation of private sector actors , Partners, government agencies, organizations and institutions. Consultant Objectives: The consultancy aims to document and report on the learnings, insights, and key discussions that emerge during the PROSPECTS IV Reflection Meeting. Mercy Corps seeks to engage a qualified consultant to facilitate and document the Reflection Meeting. The consultant will ensure that the sessions are participatory, well organized, and inclusive, and that all discussions, insights, and outcomes are accurately recorded. The primary deliverable will be a comprehensive Final Reflection Report that synthesizes the meeting’s key discussions, achievements, lessons, and recommendations to inform future programming.
