Liaising with: Research Team from IFPRI (International Food Policy Research Institute)
KickStart International www.kickstart.org is an award winning non-profit with a mission to enable millions of people in Africa to escape poverty. It designs low-cost capital equipment and mass-markets it to very poor entrepreneurs who buy the equipment to start highly profitable small-scale businesses. KickStart’s best selling, human-powered, MoneyMaker irrigation pumps have already enabled more than 80,000 farmers to move from subsistence to commercial farming, grow high value fruits and vegetables throughout the year, and very substantially increase their family incomes. KickStart has programs in Kenya, Tanzania, Mali and Burkina Faso and has sales activities in, and plans to expand into, other countries in Africa.
PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES

• This exciting study will look at all aspects of the pump’s impacts including impacts on family income, nutrition and health, education, the position of women and children, and the environment. The case study countries will be Kenya and Tanzania.

In addition to implementing the study the Development Economist will:
• Help build the capacity of and manage KickStart’s Impact Monitoring Team

• Write KickStart impact reports and present the results on a regular basis to KickStart’s management, donors, and a diverse audience of stakeholders. Including presenting papers at academic workshops and conferences.
• Help design and manage an electronic data collection and analysis system
This is a unique opportunity. More and more development programs are using “market based” approaches to tackle sustainable economic development and the IFPRI study will help lead the way in how best to evaluate the impacts of such interventions. In addition this position provides an opportunity to develop sate-of-the-art and replicable methods for the on-going monitoring and evaluation of such programs.
EXPERIENCE/SKILLS
Our ideal candidate will have a doctorate in Development or Agricultural Economics or, at minimum, a Master’s degree in the same with 3-5 years of work experience.
