Who is the Danish Refugee Council?

Founded in 1956, the Danish Refugee Council (DRC) is a leading international NGO and one of the few with a specific expertise in forced displacement. Active in 40 countries with 9,000 employees and supported by 7,500 volunteers, DRC protects, advocates, and builds sustainable futures for refugees and other displacement affected people and communities. DRC works during displacement at all stages: In the acute crisis, in displacement, when settling and integrating in a new place, or upon return. DRC provides protection and life-saving humanitarian assistance; supports displaced persons in becoming self-reliant and included into hosting societies; and works with civil society and responsible authorities to promote protection of rights and peaceful coexistence.

MMC is a knowledge centre engaged in data collection, research, analysis, and policy and programming on mixed migration. MMC has regional hubs hosted in Africa, Asia, Europe and Latin America, with a global team headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, and based in several countries worldwide. MMC is a leading source for independent and high-quality data, research, analysis and expertise on mixed migration. MMC aims to increase understanding of mixed migration, to positively impact global and regional migration policies, to inform evidence-based protection responses for people on the move and to stimulate forward thinking in public and policy debates on mixed migration. MMC’s overarching focus is on human rights and protection for all people on the move. The MMC is part of and governed by the Danish Refugee Council.

Purpose of the consultancy

MMC Eastern and Southern Africa, Egypt and Yemen, based in Nairobi, occupies a central place in producing regional research on mixed migration dynamics. In 2026, MMC has a project with UNHCR on the regional and routes-based displacement consequences of the war in Sudan. Three years into the war, displacement dynamics have become increasingly complex, regionalised, and multi-directional. Movements are no longer limited to neighbouring countries but extend across North Africa, the Sahel, the Mediterranean, and beyond, often through non-linear and stepwise pathways.

Existing analysis has highlighted several critical features:

The vast majority of Sudanese remain close to Sudan, but a growing number engage in onward movement across routes.
Movement decisions are shaped by shrinking protection space, limited access to services, and deteriorating conditions in countries of asylum, rather than predefined destination intentions.
There is a need to better understand drivers of movement, protection risks, and decision-making processes over time, rather than focusing only on arrivals or flows.

Both UNHCR and MMC hold complementary datasets:

UNHCR: protection monitoring (quantitative and qualitative), registration/profiling data, operational insights
MMC: 4Mi primary data, qualitative interviews, route-level perspectives

This project proposes to move beyond parallel analysis toward a joint evidence-building exercise, combining UNHCR and MMC data to produce protection-sensitive, route-based insights. The joint analysis will lead to comprehensive report on the Regional and Routes-Based Displacement Dynamics linked to the War in Sudan. Key sections will include: 1) analysing the scale of displacement and mapping the various routes, 2) exploring onward movement intentions and decision-making, 3) mapping exposure and identifying the determinants of vulnerability to abuse and harm, 4) mapping assistance gaps and provision, and 5) analysing the scale of returns and return intentions.

Objective of the consultancy

MMC is looking for a consultant to take the lead in:

Conducting quantitative and limited qualitative analysis, involving the bridging of datasets and methodologies to produce coherent, routes-based and protection-sensitive analysis
Drafting a joint UNHCR–MMC report on Sudanese (and third-country national) movements across key routes following the outbreak of the war in Sudan
Informing advocacy, programming, and donor engagement with an evidence-based narrative and presentation of the approach and key findings
Developing a model of structured data collaboration that can be replicated for other contexts.
