Job Description
PlayMatters reimagines childhood for refugees. It will bring play-based learning to 800,000 children across Ethiopia, Uganda, and Tanzania. It will redefine education and cultivate a generation of lifelong builders. PlayMatters is inspired by LEGO Foundation’s call to challenge the status quo, to offer children the quality education they dream of. Children are not gaining the skills they need, teachers are under-supported, and parents are overwhelmed. The systems built to serve them are failing them. PlayMatters proudly offers something different. It is being delivered by a coalition with a track record of thinking and delivering differently.
We bring three distinct characteristics:
1. OUTCOMES. Everything we do is fueled by the social, emotional, cognitive, physical, creative and resilience outcomes we seek. We know learning happens when children are at the center and teachers, parents and the system surrounding them embrace children’s agency and have not only skills and resources, but the motivation to drive change.
2. RESEARCH AND LEARNING. Effective delivery requires both rigor and a big heart. With LEGO Foundation, PlayMatters will generate scientific evidence that can transform our understanding of play and learning for refugees in East Africa and around the world.
3. THOUGHT LEADERSHIP. The LEGO Foundation Humanitarian Initiative offers an opportunity to deliver and comes with the responsibility to lead. Our consortium’s members have a record mobilizing others.
Job Summary
The IRC is seeking a Technical Project Coordinator who will closely work with the PlayMatters Regional Technical Advisor and other technical staff as well as the PMC leadership to ensure that the implementation of PlayMatters both adheres to our approved work plan and responds to contextual factors. The Technical Project Coordinator will assist in technical aspects of project management and the coordination of the content development process and piloting including the planning and oversight of translation, printing, pilot roll-out, ToTs and coordination with MEL teams. As PlayMatters launches into its year of iterative content development and testing, the Technical Project Coordinator will closely work and support the technical advisor on building the capacity of PMCs in the planning and roll out of the pilots and enhancing the coordination among the CDCs, the piloting and MEL teams for smooth project implementation. The Technical Project Coordinator will be responsible for closely collaborating with the PlayMatters’ regional workstream leads, as well as the content development teams and PMCs in Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Uganda.
