Following the success of its London research, ROTA’s Female Voice in Violence project (FVV) is being rolled out in Manchester, Liverpool and Birmingham. While ROTA will lead the research, the fieldwork will be supported by a team of young volunteers in the three regions; who will run focus groups in local schools and youth services to support the research findings.
Funded by Barrow Cadbury, ROTA is seeking an organisation in Birmingham to support a research team in that region. The organisation is required to:
* Identify an individual member of staff who can supervise the volunteer team
* Meet with the team on a weekly basis to gain feedback on focus groups
* Support the research team to arrange focus groups where necessary
* Allow the research team access to internet and printing facilities for the purposes of the focus groups
* Report back to ROTA on a bi-weekly basis, on the teams findings, needs and any concerns
* Attend a multi-agency meeting with Birmingham decision makers to support the team in presenting their findings with ROTA staff
ROTA would welcome applications from small grass roots organisations that have experience of working with BAME young people, BAME women or young people affected by gang and/or serious youth violence.
Please request a tender document for more details on the process carlene@rota.org.uk.
