ERIAC SEEKS RESEARCHER - Terms of Reference (ToR) for Researcher on Roma Pride - EXPIRED 

  1. Background

Roma pride is an important aspect of the Roma community’s cultural identity and social advocacy. This research aims to support ERIAC with research and methodological devices for evidence based action to increase Roma identity and pride (Pillar 3 of the Strategy), to assist ERIAC`s mandate to make a positive impact on belonging, self-determination, and contribution to cultural and political life.

  1. Scope

–        Measuring impact

Developing a sophisticated, viable and reliable methodology for measuring impact is essential to shift towards evidence-based decision making in the strategy pillar:  Pride and Identity The researcher will develop the methodology and establishment of baseline indicators.

Research is scarce on the subject of measuring Roma pride, which is why ERIAC commissions the researcher to develop a tailor-made methodology for measuring impact. The methodology will reflect on the following underlying questions:

Furthermore, it is clear that changing attitudes and building pride is a long-term engagement, which will not provide immediate results, and can last years, if not decades. This is why careful consideration of short- and mid-term results needs to be integrated into the methodology framework.

At the same time, the broader socio-political and economic contexts, as well as existing and emerging crises need to be considered as variables that affect the capacities of ERIAC and the network to generate change.

To be able to measure impact, ERIAC needs to develop a baseline assessment and connected indicators to assess the change generated in the field after ERIAC’s interventions. The baseline indicators need to consider the following analytical layers/ dimensions:

To test the extent of impact of ERIAC interventions regarding Roma pride, ERIAC will run pilot case-studies in selected locations. These selected geographies will be chosen strategically, both depending on the degree of importance for overall ERIAC operations as well as for the broader transnational network. Small-scale testing in strategic locations will be developed in locations with a significant size of Roma population. If Roma are already present in local administration (for example, Roma mayors), building institutional partnership will become an additional layer of action and analysis.

Measuring pride is difficult and, in the Roma context, there is little reliable research on shifting attitudes among Roma themselves. At the same time, ERIAC needs clear feedback to be able to measure and adjust its scope of operations with the objective of increasing pride. To do so, ERIAC can measure:

With this in mind, some possible indicators include:

RESEARCH ASSISTANTS - EXPIRED

ERIAC SEEKS

RESEARCH ASSISTANTS

TO SUPPORT THE “RE-THINKING ROMA RESISTANCE” PROJECT

 

 

TERMS OF REFERENCE – Roma Resistance Research Assistant

Job title: Roma Resistance Research Assistant

Duration of appointment: February 14th – April 14th, 2020

Deadline for applying: February 7th 2020

 

The European Roma Institute for Arts and Culture (ERIAC) is seeking research assistants to contribute to the development of the project “Re-thinking Roma Resistance”, financed by the EVZ Foundation.

 

Background information:

In recent years, the topic of Roma Resistance during the WWII has grown into a powerful symbol that contrasts the notion of Roma victimhood with the acknowledgement of Roma agency and survival. From researchers to the media, the stories of the Roma Resistance during WWII have begun to gain momentum. Inspired in various accounts of the Roma uprising at the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp on May 16, 1944, the date has been embraced and celebrated by Roma communities across Europe, particularly by Roma youth. In this sense, the Roma Resistance has become a powerful reference point for Roma social and political mobilization. However, a narrow reading of the history of Roma Resistance – limited to the event of Roma uprising in Auschwitz – may reverse the transformative, emancipatory and mobilizing potential that the stories of active resistance represent and will overshadow the many other stories of heroism in the face of injustice of Roma individuals and communities throughout Europe.

 

“Re-thinking Roma Resistance” project, financed by the EVZ foundation, will develop an expended definition of “Roma Resistance” as well as explore and document its diverse manifestations throughout modern history in various geographical locations. The project will present a new narrative of the “Roma Resistance” which represents intimate and subjective experiences of the Roma survivors, witnesses and their families.

 

Objectives of the assignment:

Under the direct supervision of ERIAC’s executive management, four local researcher assistants covering different European regions will contribute to the implementation of the “Re-thinking Roma Resistance” project, by researching local stories of resistance in specific geographical areas. In collaboration with other partners involved, the researchers will provide regional perspectives on heroism during the WWII, and its aftermath, as well as during other chapters of European and national histories.

In particular, the researchers will be expected to:

Methodology:

Before engaging in the project, the researcher will be given a detailed introduction into the work of ERIAC, the objectives of the project, the expectations with regards to the development and submission of the final deliverables. The researchers will be provided with detailed instructions as to the outputs of the project.

Due to the restricted time-frame of this project, the report will be based on the following data-collection methodology:

Qualifications and Competencies:

The Researcher shall unconditionally be able to identify with the founding principles of ERIAC:

Application instructions:

Applications from all suitably qualified candidates, irrespective of gender, disability, marital or parental status, racial, ethnic or social origin, color, religion, belief, or sexual orientation are welcome. Candidates of self-declared Roma origin are particularly encouraged to apply.

Applications should include:

IMPORTANT: In the motivation letter, please include a specific mention of the countries/ regions where you would be willing to develop research and/or where you have previously developed research.

 

Applications should be written in English and sent to eriac@eriac.org  in one email. Please write “Roma Resistance Research Assistant” in the subject line of the email.
