Vacancy Announcement: Country Researcher - The State of the Union (SOTU)

Fahamu on behalf of the SOTU coalition is seeking to engage a consultant researcher to conduct assessments in Kenya to determine the level of compliance with and implementation of key commitments in AU protocols, conventions and declarations and the impact of implementation on citizens’ quality of life.

The study seeks to establish the status of ratification, domestication and implementation of AU instruments, policy standards and decisions at country level- best practices and challenges– and strategies to enhance implementation and monitoring. The overall goal of the study is to review the progress of ratification, domestication and implementation made since the previous SOTU reports published in 2010. The outcomes of the study will be used to engage with member states at national and regional levels: country reports will be launched at country level while the continental report will be launched at the African Union Summit in May 2013.
