 Background Information – Job-specific
Located in Nairobi, Kenya, the Kenya Multi Country Office manages a growing portfolio of engagements, including associated strategic and operational risks. The KEMC sub-region currently consists of an established Operation Centre in Nairobi/Kenya which manages a portfolio of engagements in multiple countries in East and South Africa. This includes primarily transactional projects in partnership with the Nairobi based UN Agencies, UN-Habitat and UNEP, and multiple ‘operational’ projects in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and several island states.
Within the frame of the proposed construction of the Kampala Jinja Expressway, is a programme referenced as the Kampala Jinja Expressway “No-one worse off” (KJE-NOWO) initiative, which  aims to support UNRA to effectively implement 4 of the 7 safeguard programmes identified as being vital to meet the required IFC safeguard standards.
The successful implementation of the safeguards requires two discreet but connected sets of activities:
Firstly, identification of affected stakeholders and the establishment of credible dialogue and engagement platforms and forums that enable trust and confidence to be built.
Secondly, the collection of technical information to inform the dialogue and public engagements between UNRA and the affected persons.
In order to undertake the second activity above, there is in place a  technical UNOPS  and Cities Alliance project team that works in conjunction with Slum Dwellers International (via its local affiliate Altogether), amongst other stakeholders  namely Platform for Vendors in Uganda (PLAVU) and Association of Volunteers international (AVSI) who organize for the community liaison
Slum upgrading feasibility study:
This component of the programme is in support of the realization of both the short- and long-term development objectives related to the incremental in-situ upgrading of Kasokoso and Kinawataka informal settlements. The short-term objectives relate to the resettlement of households from the KJE ROW onto land that will benefit from a longer term incremental in-situ development process. The longer term objectives relate to a strategy and plan  for the longer term upgrading of Kasokoso and Kinawataka informal settlements.
Nakawa Market Accessibility study
Nakawa market is one of Kampala’s largest food markets providing thousands of direct and indirect economic opportunities. While every effort was taken to design the KJE alignment to minimize negative impacts on the Nakawa market, the exact scale and nature of the impacts on the long-term viability of Nakawa market by the construction of the KJE is unclear.
The purpose of this component is to
Determine the exact number and circumstances of traders currently trading from within the ROW that need to be relocated.
Identify the least disruptive economically viable short- term development options
Determine to what extent accessibility to the market is diminished by the construction of the expressway and if needed examine opportunities to restore or improve accessibility
Determine what options exist and make recommendations for the least disruptive long-term relocation or in-situ redevelopment option.
