USAID seeks to employ a US Personal Services Contractor (PSC) to manage its Transition Initiative for Somalia (TIS) program. The TIS program will support quick-impact, results-based activities to demonstrate the positive impact of the political reconciliation process. This will include making small grants to communities and local/national governments and generating employment to help deter youth from joining insurgent groups. Community-driven, quick-impact programs in targeted areas should increase economic opportunities in the short term, build confidence in the peace process and contribute to the development of a more comprehensive recovery plan. The program will address the urgent need for income generation and job creation. The program will work with civil society organizations and local stakeholders to involve beneficiary communities in all phases of project identification and implementation. Specific project activities include small-scale infrastructure rehabilitation of clinics, markets, local government buildings, and irrigation canals. Other projects may be road repair, water and sanitation projects, and small scale microfinance. This program will be managed out of the East Africa Regional Office in USAID's Mission in Nairobi.
