The Food Prices for Nutrition (FPN) project at Tufts University is seeking one or more consultants for a scoping study on the availability, use and need for data analysis to guide action on food markets in Africa. The consultancy will begin in January 2024, towards completion of a complete draft study in early December 2024 and a revised final version in June 2025. The consultant(s) would work closely with FPN staff and graduate students, under the direction of Prof. William Masters.

Deliverables include a 10-20 page report with detailed annex on the extent of food price and availability data being collected by public sector and proprietary price monitoring, and the potential interests of private-sector, international organizations, government agencies and philanthropic initiatives in collaborations to guide private enterprises towards actions that improve public health, sustainability and equity in Africa.

Applicants should send their curriculum vitae or capability statement with a cover letter briefly describing how their expertise and experience applies to this scope of work, to [email protected] prior to 8am Boston time on Monday November 13th.
