Job Summary

Key Responsibilities

​Recent DFID (UKAID) support for the transport sector in developing countries has included two programmes focused on applied research in the area of low-volume rural roads and transport services. Between 2004 and 2009, DFID supported the South East Asia Community Access Project (SEACAP) in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos. This was followed by DFID support to the Africa Community Access Project (AFCAP phase 1) between 2008 and 2014. Building on the success of these two programmes, in 2014 DFID initiated support to a second phase of support to AFCAP and new support for similar applied research focused on South Asia (ASCAP). These two programmes are managed under the overall umbrella of the Research in Community Access Partnership (ReCAP). ReCAP will operate in the following geographical areas: Africa Region (East and South), Africa Region (West) and Asia Region.
