- Description
- The successful offeror will serve in the Bureau for Democracy, Human Rights, and Governance (DRG) Bureau. USAID currently manages over $1.7 billion a year on a broad range of democracy programs. The DRG Bureau is the lead for the Agency in supporting overall efforts to advance DRG. These efforts are critical to invigorate democracy, enhance human rights and justice, and bolster governance that advances the public interest and delivers inclusive development. The DRG Bureau�s annual budget is over $257 million, with a staff of over 180, composed of US direct hires (USDHs), institutional contractors, and Fellows. The Bureau�s mission is to shape policy and development agendas, generate knowledge and evidence that drives innovation, catalyze partnerships and coalitions, and mobilize cutting-edge programs and technical assistance to enable USAID�s Missions and partners to accelerate democratic development globally. The DRG Bureau achieves this through high quality support to USAID missions, generating and disseminating knowledge on best practices, and providing leadership on DRG to the wider U.S. Government (USG) and the international development community. In addition to the Office of the Assistant to the Administrator, the DRG Bureau has eight technical and support offices: Global Trends and Technology (GTT); Elections and Political Processes (EPP); Justice, Rights, and Security (JRS); Governance (GOV); Civil Society, Labor, and Media (CLM); Policy, Learning, and Integration (PLI); Management and Cadre Support (MCS); and Program Office (PO). The Anti-Corruption Center (ACC) is also located in the DRG Bureau. The offices and ACC are described in ADS 101.3.1.17. The Office of Governance (GOV) is one of the DRG Bureau�s technical offices. GOV meets Agency and DRG Bureau objectives by providing technical leadership and support on local and urban governance, effective national institutions, public sector reform, economic governance, and transparency and accountability to USAID Missions and other bureaus, other USG entities, and the broader DRG community. GOV supports resilient, transparent, and accountable executive and legislative institutions at all levels of government. GOV helps partner governments to strengthen capacity to provide responsive services to their citizens, mobilize and spend in-country public resources, and promote locally led development and inclusive economic growth. Working as part of GOV, the Senior Governance Advisor will help the DRG Bureau meet high demand for technical assistance by providing support � both on TDY and in Washington D.C. � to Missions,� Embassies, and other USAID operating units. The Senior Governance Advisor will support the development of strategy and country-level plans, the design and evaluation of programs, development of performance indicators, the conduct of DRG and other assessments, and the integration of evidence-based, best-fit good governance approaches into cross-sectoral programming.� The Senior Governance Advisor may also serve as a COR/AOR for at least one of GOV's implementing mechanisms, and/or alternate COR/AOR or activity manager of other GOV-managed activities. On TDY and in Washington, the successful offeror will work closely with USAID and Department of State colleagues to: identify opportunities for USAID to support governance priorities; design activities responding to those opportunities; work with partners to effectively implement those activities; monitor the impact of those activities; and other associated technical and managerial assistance. The successful offeror will develop performance indicators, assessments, design and evaluate programs, and provide other Mission technical support. The successful offeror will coordinate with intra- and interagency colleagues on strategy, policy, and resource allocation issues.
