PU-AMI is a French non-governmental, not-for-profit organization working in the field of international solidarity. Since 2002, PU-AMI has implemented humanitarian projects in the occupied Palestinian territory mainly focusing on 3 sectors of intervention: Cash Fork Work, Agriculture recovery and WASH (Water Sanitation and Hygiene). From 2012, PU-AMI has oriented the goal of its humanitarian program on protecting livelihoods and securing economic access to food when and where populations are directly exposed to violations of the Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law. Starting from 2013, PU-AMI is implementing one long term project, “Women Economic Empowerment” (WEE) project, funded by the European Union (EuropeAid). In this framework project, PU-AMI is partnering with a local organization, Women for Life (WFL) for the purpose of creating and considering the needs to promote and support the empowerment of women in 11 Community Based Organizations (CBOs) of the Northern of West Bank (Salfit and Qalqilya) through raising knowledge, improving awareness and strengthening the employability and the entrepreneurship among women in 11 isolated villages.
 
As part of this WEE project activities, PU-AMI wishes to recruit a national consultant, team of consultants, or legally constituted institutions consultant to conduct a Market Study that aims to collect and analyze information on current growing sectors and sub-sectors, providing insight into market demand and available opportunities for women at the community level in Qalqilya and Salfit.

Using both qualitative and quantitative methodologies, the study is expected to identify and document innovative business ideas from national and regional experiences that could be duplicated at the local level in the villages targeted by the project. It is also important to gather information on challenges, risks, and lessons learnt from those business examples.
