About this opportunity
FORM Kenya hosts approximately 836,466 refugees and asylum seekers with the majority residing in Dadaab and Kakuma/Kalobeyei camps as well as in urban areas. Children and youth constitute more than 80% of the refugee population. Refugee communities continue to face the effects of conflict, displacement, poverty and climate-related shocks. The Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), with support from a variety of donors, implements Information, Counselling and Legal Assistance (ICLA), Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), Education, Shelter, Emergency Response and Energy and Environment interventions across Nairobi, Kakuma, Kalobeyei and Dadaab refugee operations. NRC supports displaced populations in refugee camps and surrounding host communities in Garissa and Turkana counties, informal settlements resident to urban refugees as well as climate-affected communities in the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASAL) region. Our interventions focus on delivering assistance and promoting long-term solutions for displacement-affected populations. NRC in Kenya intensified its localisation efforts in 2023 and as NRC develops its 2027–2030 Strategy, locally led solutions are at the heart of its vision, reflecting a commitment to empowering local actors and advancing sustainable, context-driven humanitarian outcomes. The objective of this Expression of Interest (EoI) is to identify qualified Refugee-Led Organizations (RLOs) that can support project delivery, strengthen community outreach and engagement and facilitate access to services and information at the community level.
