Description

Description for Internal and External Candidates Position Title : Capability Development Approach Consultant Duty Station : Home-Based Classification : Consultancy, Category B Type of Appointment : Consultant Contract Desired Start Date : As soon as possible Closing Date : 18 March 2026 (11:59 PM, Bangkok Time) Reference Code : CFA19398/2026 Established in 1951, IOM is the leading inter-governmental organization in the field of migration and works closely with governmental, intergovernmental and non-governmental partners. IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. It does so by providing services and advice to governments and migrants. ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXT AND SCOPE: The Bali Process on People Smuggling, Trafficking in Persons and Related Transnational Crime (Bali Process) is a non-binding and state-driven process involving 49 members (countries and international agencies), including the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the International Labour Organization (ILO), the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the United Nations Office of Drugs and Crime (UNODC), as well as a number of observer countries and international agencies who participate in this voluntary forum. More information about the Bali Process can be found at www.baliprocess.net [http://www.baliprocess.net/]. The RSO was established in 2012 to facilitate the operationalisation of the Regional Cooperation Framework (RCF) to reduce irregular migration in the Asia and Pacific region. The RSO aims to support and strengthen practical cooperation on refugee protection and international migration, including human trafficking and people smuggling, and other components of migration management in the region. The RSO is co-managed by the Australian and Indonesian Governments. More information can be found at www.rso.baliprocess.net. [http://www.rso.baliprocess.net./] To deliver on its mission, the RSO operates according to four core purposes that underpin how it provides support to Bali Process Members and Working Groups. These core purposes are: (1) being responsive to Bali Process Members and Working Groups by engaging with members to deliver activities that contribute towards Bali Process commitments and sourcing specialist technical assistance; (2) operational capacity building through the development and delivery of fit-for-purpose operational capacity-building activities relevant to the Bali Process mandate; (3) capability development through policy and promotion of best practice by conducting research and providing access to information and resources that support dialogue, policy development and improved responses to people smuggling, trafficking in persons and related transnational crime using a victim-centered approach; and (4) outreach, engagement and advocacy to promote the RSO's work to external partners, publicly advocate on key issues, and act as a connector for information sharing and dialogue among Bali Process members. These core purposes, particularly the emphasis on operational capacity building and capability development, necessitate a structured and systematic approach to the design and delivery of training and capacity building initiatives across the region. To ensure this structured and systematic approach to capacity building initiatives, the RSO requires a comprehensive Capability Development Approach that provides clear frameworks, methodologies, and quality assurance mechanisms for all RSO capability development activities. This approach will serve as the foundational document guiding the design, implementation, and evaluation of RSO capability development interventions across the region. Given the above, the consultancy will involve the development of the Capability Development Approach. The development process will involve conducting consultations with relevant stakeholders and the development of a capability development framework, training design principles, an e-curriculum development approach, training implementation methodology, an institutionalisation framework detailing a Train-the-Trainer approach and post-training action planning framework, and quality assurance and monitoring and evaluation guidelines. The consultant will further support existing office efforts to draft and finalise a Theory of Change for the next work plan.
