HLP Data Analyst

Country: Syrian Arab Republic Organization: The Day After Closing date: 25 Aug 2026 1. Overview of The Day After The Day After (TDA) is an independent, Syrian-led civil society organization working to support a democratic transition in Syria. In August 2012, TDA completed work on a comprehensive approach to managing the challenges of a post-Assad transition in Syria. The Day After project brought together a group of Syrians representing a broad spectrum of the Syrian opposition, including representatives of the Syrian National Council, members of the Local Coordination Committees in Syria, and unaffiliated opposition figures from inside Syria and the diaspora, to participate in an independent transition-planning process. The TDA report, “The Day After: Supporting a Democratic Transition in Syria,” provides a framework of principles, goals and recommendations for addressing challenges in six key fields: rule of law; transitional justice; security sector reform; constitutional design; electoral system design; and post-conflict social and economic reconstruction. TDA has since shifted its focus from transition planning to implementation of the report's recommendations. 2. Background The HLP Rights Monitoring project establishes a community-rooted monitoring mechanism across six Syrian governorates to generate timely and reliable evidence on housing, land and property (HLP) risks, incidents and trends. The Data Analyst will support the project by transforming verified monitoring data into structured analysis, analytical products and evidence for programme decision-making, reporting, advocacy and communication. 3. Purpose of the Assignment The purpose of this assignment is to analyze and interpret HLP monitoring data collected across the six target governorates and produce high-quality analytical outputs that identify key trends, geographic patterns, emerging risks and relevant findings. The consultant will also provide verified data, statistics and key findings to support the development of the project's communication and media products. 4. Scope of Work A. Data Review and Preparation • Review monitoring data submitted from the six governorates. • Clean and structure datasets as required for analysis. • Identify missing, inconsistent or duplicate information. • Coordinate with the HLP Team Leader and M&E Officer to clarify data-quality issues. • Ensure analytical outputs are based on verified and appropriately documented information. B. Data Analysis • Analyze HLP incidents, risks and trends across the six governorates. • Identify geographic patterns and emerging hotspots. • Analyze relevant disaggregated data, including gender and other variables captured through the monitoring tools. • Identify significant trends and findings that may inform protection programming, advocacy and policy engagement. • Support the development of governorate-level risk profiles. C. Analytical Products The consultant will contribute to the production of the project's agreed analytical products, including: • Five flash updates. • One thematic brief. • One final analytical report. • Governorate-level risk profiles and analytical inputs, as required. The exact timing and scope of each assignment will be agreed with TDA based on the monitoring cycle and the availability of sufficiently verified data. D. Communication and Media Support • Provide verified statistics, trends, findings and data points for use by TDA's communications and advocacy teams. • Identify significant findings that can be translated into infographics, social media content, reels, explainer materials and other communication products. • Provide clear explanations and contextual notes for key statistics to avoid misinterpretation or misuse of monitoring data. • Review data and figures used in communication products, when requested, to ensure factual accuracy. • Support the Programme and Communications teams in identifying evidence-based messages emerging from monitoring data. E. Coordination • Coordinate primarily with the HLP Team Leader and Programme Manager. • Work closely with the M&E Officer on data quality and indicator-related requirements. • Coordinate with relevant TDA communications staff when analytical findings are translated into communication products. 5. Key Deliverables The assignment is task-based. Delivery and payment will be linked to agreed outputs, which may include: • Cleaned and structured datasets and/or analytical tables. • Five flash updates. • One thematic brief. • Governorate-level risk profiles. • One final analytical report. • Verified statistics and key findings for communication and media products. • Analytical inputs and data validation for selected visual and communication products. 6.
