GAIN is seeking a qualified consultant or organization to analyse the stakeholder ecosystem and data landscape and at both national and sub-national levels in Mexico. This includes stakeholder engagement at the national and state levels, data analysis at the national and state levels, and, where feasible, at the regional/municipality level for selected priority indicators. The consultant will also support the facilitation of workshops designed to gather feedback on the dashboard prototype, including the proposed indicators and data sources. The workshop will play a critical role in validating the Dashboard ahead of its official launch and will also serve as a platform for consensus building. 

The workshops will also serve as a way to support the contextualization of the FSCI monitoring framework by identifying a set of key indicators for national monitoring. This work will contribute to the development of a country-level Food Systems Dashboard, featuring indicators that provide a comprehensive overview of subnational food systems. It will also support the development of a national framework with key indicators to track food systems transformation and guide policy decision-making.

GAIN Tanzania is implementing the 12-month Lishe Shuleni Project in Kagera region aiming to improve access to and consumption of diverse, nutritious diets—specifically fortified and biofortified staple food among 34,200 schoolchildren in 54 schools across Bukoba, Missenyi and Muleba District Councils. It builds on prior investments in fortification and biofortification, including support provided through a previous GAIN grant that strengthened the capacity of local maize millers' associations to supply fortified maize flour. The project will facilitate structured market linkages between operational millers producing fortified maize flour and school feeding programmes, leveraging these supply chains to ensure the consistent availability and access.
