In Ethiopia FT Hub has consulted with key stakeholders like the FCDO, the Ministry of Education and UNICEF to identify teaching quality as a key education sectoral challenge in both development and humanitarian contexts in Ethiopia. The FT Hub and key ecosystem actors recognise that there is an opportunity to address this through teacher professional development (PD) in Ethiopia and see potential for frontier or emerging technologies to play a key role. The FT Hub’s role is to consider, identify and test emerging or frontier technology to help improve teacher professional development.
We are seeking an education technical expert to:
Undertake a market and landscape analysis,
Make recommendations of specific evidence-supported, demand-led use cases for addressing teaching quality through frontier tech intervention.
Co-facilitate a validation and refinement workshop leading to the verification of specific use cases for solution design to be addressed with frontier solutions in a future phase of work.
The FT Hub will prioritise local or regional consultants who have extensive experience in the education Sector in Ethiopia, but international consultants are welcomed.
We anticipate that there may be various scopes of work available throughout the FT Demand-Led innovation process exploring technologies for addressing teaching quality in humanitarian contexts in Ethiopia and we invite applications from educational technical experts who can potentially commit to a longer-term engagement with FT Hub demand-led exploration in Ethiopia.
