Consultants to Conduct National Mapping (2 positions)
International Organization for Migration · 🇰🇬 Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) is seeking two consultants to conduct a comprehensive national mapping and analysis of protection-related legal frameworks, policies, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and service delivery mechanisms in Kyrgyzstan. The assignment focuses on vulnerable migrants, children affected by migration or trafficking, and survivors of human trafficking. The primary objective is to identify strengths and gaps in the current system to inform the development or refinement of user-friendly SOPs and guidance materials. The scope includes a systematic inventory of national legislation, government strategies, and inter-agency protocols, alongside an assessment of their implementation and alignment with international standards. The consultants will employ a mixed-methods approach, including desk reviews of existing documents and data, key informant interviews with government officials, service providers, judiciary, and civil society, as well as field observations and focus group discussions. The role requires analyzing service provision, referral pathways, and coordination among relevant actors to highlight bottlenecks and gaps. The output will serve as an evidence-based foundation to strengthen protection systems, improve outcomes for vulnerable migrants, and support frontline practitioners. The work is closely aligned with a parallel regional assessment covering Central Asia, ensuring complementarity and avoiding duplication. The consultants must navigate complex migration dynamics, assess the adequacy of legal frameworks, and evaluate the accessibility of services for various vulnerable sub-groups, including unaccompanied children and those in irregular situations.
