Impact of forced displacement on labour markets in Uganda
REFNo: SS1039ES
Objective 1) Provide strong empirical evidence of the direct and indirect impacts. Against the backcloth of a comprehensive literature survey, and investigating non-camp urban refugee populations in Kampala and as well as camp based refugees in Nakivale refugee settlement in Uganda.
Objective 2) Identify the mechanism(s?) through which impacts occur. Analyzing the empirical evidence we will: i) explore direct and indirect (partial equilibrium) impacts and outcomes on the dynamics of labor market and business behavior, assessing impact-attribution and correlating variables such as labor supply and wages, capital investment/ labor trade-offs and demand side factors, productivity and skills, national and international investment patterns; ii) assess the role of political economy, regulatory and policy frameworks; iii) generate qualitative analysis of household and individual livelihood/life course experiences in relation to labor market outcomes, iv) generate local, national and comparative findings.
Objective 3) Support the development of evidence-based, effective, and context-specific jobs policy advice. The analytical outputs will provide a robust evidence base for jobs policy advice envisaged at different levels (local, national, and international), and for different stakeholders (e.g. municipal and national governments, donors, intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations, private sector investors, entrepreneurs and SME sector, and displaced and host populations). Policy advice will include, inter alia: finance and investment strategies, regulatory framework e.g. rights to work/rights at work and employer conditions for decent work), spatial planning, training and skills, role of investment incentives, socio-economic policies for displaced and host populations vis à vis labor markets.
Objective 4) Generate new data that will be in the public domain for use in further research. The proposed study will generate new statistical (survey) data sets for three of the four case countries: Colombia, Ethiopia and Uganda. In Jordan, the study team is already in possession of sufficient data through previous surveys conducted by Fafo and partners. When designing the new surveys, special attention will be given to establish robust baselines that can be applied in future impact analyses. Responding to this objective and the general TOR requirements, we shall place all the data generated in the proposed project in the public domain.
