Call For Consultancy at Rikolto Tanzania
New Job Opportunities at Rikolto Tanzania October 2025
Terms of Reference (ToR)
Consultancy on Strengthening Multi-Stakeholder Platforms (MSPs) Linked to Anchor SMEs in Tanzania
1. Background
Rikolto
is an international NGO with over 50 years of experience working with
farmer organizations and food chain stakeholders across Africa, Asia,
Europe, and Latin America. Our mission is:
“A sustainable income for farmers and nutritious, affordable food for everyone.”
Through our global programmes on Rice, Cocoa & Coffee, and Good Food for Cities, we foster trust and collaboration between farmers, the food industry, governments, research institutions, financial bodies, and consumers—addressing the big question: What will we eat tomorrow?
Rikolto East Africa is currently implementing the Grow Together Programme (2024–2028), funded by NORAD through IDH. In Tanzania, the programme focuses on transforming local food markets by strengthening SMEs, improving food security, and scaling opportunities for smallholder farmers.
Urban food systems in Tanzania—particularly in Dar es Salaam and Dodoma—face increasing pressure from urbanization and changing diets. SMEs and MSMEs play a vital role in food production, processing, and retail but remain underrepresented in structured platforms due to limited partnerships, weak capacity, and low policy engagement.
2. Objectives of the Assignment
This consultancy seeks to:
- Strengthen MSP facilitation by developing strategic frameworks and practical guidelines for nutrition and urban food platforms in Dar es Salaam and Dodoma.
- Support SMEs/MSMEs (particularly in sunflower and rice value chains) to build strong partnerships and actively engage in these platforms.
3. Scope of Work
The consultant will:
- Review existing MSPs in Dodoma and Ilala (Dar es Salaam), assessing governance, inclusivity, and effectiveness.
- Engage stakeholders to identify gaps, challenges, and opportunities in nutrition and urban food systems across key value chains (rice, sunflower, maize, horticulture, beans, livestock).
- Develop strategic frameworks to strengthen functionality of MSPs (TASUPA, RCT, nutrition & food platforms).
- Draft facilitation guidelines for effective platform coordination, inclusive dialogue, and decision-making.
- Facilitate validation workshops to refine frameworks and assess platform progress.
- Support policy engagement through studies, briefs, and convening MSP meetings at city level.
- Foster partnerships between SMEs/MSMEs, government, private sector, and NGOs to strengthen logistics, branding, and market access.
- Promote nutrition awareness and consumer engagement through campaigns, branding, and community-based initiatives.
4. Expected Outcomes
- Stronger MSP governance, coordination, and stakeholder engagement.
- Increased participation of SMEs/MSMEs in nutrition-sensitive food platforms.
- Improved access to nutritious, safe, and affordable food in Dar es Salaam and Dodoma.
- Enhanced visibility of TASUPA and RCT in influencing food systems policy.
- Strengthened business models and market access for anchor SMEs.
5. Deliverables
- Organizational Capacity Assessment (OCA) report for Dodoma & Dar es Salaam MSPs.
- Strategic frameworks and facilitation tools for MSPs.
- Monthly progress reports and final city-level performance reports.
- Strengthened SME/MSME business models and market linkages.
- Validation workshop reports.
6. Duration
The assignment will run for 90 days, with a detailed work plan agreed upon during inception.
