National Consultant, Rapid Market Assessment for Girls’ Skills Development and Economic Empowerment in Katsina State, Remote + travel, #593851

UNICEF seeks to generate robust and actionable evidence through a gender-responsive rapid market assessment. This assessment will inform the design of a targeted Skills4Girls programme aimed at supporting adolescent girls’ transition to economic empowerment in Katsina State. The programme will provide girls aged 15–19 with high-quality, market-aligned vocational, entrepreneurship, and livelihood skills, complemented by financial literacy training. It will also identify feasible and safe economic sectors, analyse labour market demand and skills gaps, and examine systemic and gender-related barriers affecting girls’ economic participation.
