Request for Proposal:building Routes Insights for Data-driven Governance and Engagement
The International Organization for Migration (IOM), through its Global Data Institute (GDI), is implementing the BRIDGE – Building Routes Insights for Data-driven Governance and Engagement initiative, funded by the Government of the United Kingdom through the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO). BRIDGE aims to generate timely, granular, and actionable insights to support the UK’s strategic planning, operational preparedness, and protection responses related to irregular migration.
Within BRIDGE, IOM is deploying a multi-component, route-based analytical framework combining enhanced Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) data collection and analysis across key migration corridors (East and Horn of Africa, Western Balkans, and Libya) with a strategic foresight component designed to support anticipatory analysis on irregular migration affecting the UK.
The strategic foresight component (BRIDGE Output 2) is designed to synthesise evidence generated under the project’s data collection and analytical workstreams into forward-looking insights, including the identification of weak signals, key drivers, and plausible future scenarios. These insights are intended to inform UK policy and operational decision-making by enabling stakeholders to explore potential future pathways, test assumptions, and stress-test response options.
To support this component, IOM intends to engage a UK-based external service provider to provide methodological support to the design and delivery of central foresight workshops under BRIDGE Output 2. The selected provider will complement IOM’s internal foresight capacity and routebased analytical work by bringing specialist expertise in participatory foresight methods, scenario building, and policy stresstesting.
