    SRP Tracer Study

    2026

    *** Description en français ci-dessous ***

    APPLICATION DEADLINE: August 10, 2026

    EXPECTED START DATE: Sept 1, 2026

    BACKGROUND

    WUSC is a Canadian global development organization working to catalyze positive education and economic outcomes for young people. We bring together and collaborate with a diverse network of partners (including students, volunteers, schools, governments, not-for-profits, and businesses) who share this mission. Together, we influence systems change, and foster inclusive, youth-centered solutions that enable young people to thrive and belong. We work with all young people, with a focus on women and displaced populations.  Our global team includes over 100 staff in Canada and more than 250 staff internationally, implementing a diverse portfolio of development projects in collaboration with numerous multilateral and bilateral donors, and philanthropic foundations.

    Amongst other global programs, WUSC manages the world’s-longest standing refugee education pathway, known as the Student Refugee Program. Over 40+ years, nearly 3000 students have been resettled to Canada to begin their studies. Each year, WUSC works with a network of 100+ sponsoring post-secondary institutions, and 1200+ volunteers to provide peer-to-peer support to arriving refugee students, fund the costs of sponsorship, and to advocate for institutional and policy changes that support refugee inclusion both on and off campus. 

    PURPOSE, OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE OF THE STUDY

    The Student Refugee Program (SRP) has partnered with the Canadian post-secondary community to provide opportunities for refugee youth to continue their post-secondary education in Canada through the Private Sponsorship of Refugees Program since 1978. In recent years, the program has expanded to provide a diverse range of education opportunities at Universities, Colleges and CEGEPS.  The global and national context in which WUSC works has considerably changed in recent years, making it more complex to pursue and expand opportunities for refugees through the Student Refugee Program.  

    The purpose of the Tracer Study is to provide evidence of the changes that the SRP has contributed to, and inform strategies for further expanding the SRP in Canada. 

    The objectives of the Tracer Study are to: 

    1. Examine the critical factors driving positive academic, social, and economic outcomes for SRP students, with a specific focus on the role of extended financial support past the first 12 months of legal sponsorship in Canada.
    2. Assess and document the short- and long-term changes experienced by resettled refugee students, their families and communities, providing insights on their educational completion rates and subsequent employment trajectories, as well as their agency, well-being and sense of belonging.
    3. Investigate how different SRP sponsorship funding models contribute to or hinder student success and program sustainability.
    4. Identify operational successes and systemic challenges (“what works and what does not”) within the current SRP framework.
    5. Formulate strategic recommendations aimed at strengthening the SRP’s design, funding mechanisms, and delivery models.

    The SRP Tracer Study is national in scope (ie. Across Canada) and will include a timeframe from the lifetime of the program ( 1978- present). The study will collect and analyze data in both English and French.

    KEY DELIVERABLES

    CONTEXTE

    L’EUMC est une organisation canadienne de développement international qui œuvre à favoriser l’éducation et l’épanouissement économique des jeunes personnes. Nous réunissons et collaborons avec un réseau diversifié de partenaires, notamment des étudiant·e·s, des volontaires, des écoles, des gouvernements, des organismes à but non-lucratif et des entreprises, qui partagent cette mission. Ensemble, nous influençons le changement des systèmes et favorisons des solutions inclusives et centrées sur les jeunes qui leur permettent de s’épanouir et de trouver leur place. Nous travaillons avec toutes les jeunes personnes, en mettant l’accent sur les femmes et les populations déplacées. Notre équipe internationale comprend plus de 100 personnes au Canada et plus de 250 dans le monde entier, qui gèrent un portefeuille diversifié de projets de développement en partenariat avec des donateurs multilatéraux et bilatéraux et des fondations philanthropiques.

    Amongst other global programs, WUSC manages the world’s-longest standing refugee education pathway, known as the Student Refugee Program. Over 40+ years, nearly 3000 students have been resettled to Canada to begin their studies. Each year, WUSC works with a network of 100+ sponsoring post-secondary institutions, and 1200+ volunteers to provide peer-to-peer support to arriving refugee students, fund the costs of sponsorship, and to advocate for institutional and policy changes that support refugee inclusion both on and off campus.

    Parmi d’autres programmes internationaux, l’EUMC met en œuvre le plus ancien parcours de réinstallation par l’éducation au monde, connu sous le nom du Programme d’étudiantes et d’étudiants réfugiés (PÉR). Au cours de plus de 40 ans, presque 3 000 étudiant·e·s ont été réinstallé au Canada pour poursuivre leurs études. Chaque année, l’EUMC travaille avec un réseau de plus de 1 200 bénévoles qui offrent un soutien par les pairs aux étudiant·e·s nouvellement arrivées et 100+ établissements postsecondaires parrains qui financent les coûts du parrainage et plaident en faveur de changements institutionnels et politiques pour favoriser l’inclusion de personnes réfugiées sur les campus et au-delà. 

    BUT, OBJECTIFS ET PORTÉE DE L’ÉTUDE

    Le Programme d’étudiantes et d’étudiants réfugiés (PÉR) collabore avec la communauté postsecondaire canadienne depuis 1978 pour offrir à des jeunes personnes réfugiées l’occasion de poursuivre leurs études postsecondaires au Canada dans le cadre d’une entente privée de parrainage. Au cours des dernières années, le programme s’est élargi pour offrir une gamme diversifiée d’opportunités d’éducation dans des universités, des collèges et des cégeps. Le contexte international et national dans lequel l’EUMC travaille a considérablement changé, rendant plus complexe la poursuite et l’élargissement des opportunités pour les personnes réfugiées par le biais du PÉR.

    L’objectif de cette étude de suivi est de fournir des données probantes sur les changements auxquels le PÉR a contribué et d’éclairer les stratégies visant à poursuivre l’expansion du programme au Canada.

    Les objectifs de l’étude de suivi sont :

    1. Examiner les facteurs déterminants qui favorisent des résultats académiques, sociaux et économiques positifs pour les étudiantes et étudiants du PÉR, avec un accent particulier sur le rôle d’un soutien financier prolongé au-delà des 12 premiers mois de parrainage légal au Canada.
    2. Évaluer et documenter les changements à court et à long terme vécus par les personnes étudiantes réfugiées réinstallées, leurs familles et leurs communautés, en fournissant des perspectives sur leurs taux de diplomation, leurs trajectoires professionnelles ultérieures, ainsi que sur leur autonomie, leur bien-être et leur sentiment d’appartenance.
    3. Étudier la manière dont les différents modèles de financement du parrainage du PÉR contribuent ou font obstacle à la réussite des étudiant·e·s et à la pérennité du programme.
    4. Identifier les succès opérationnels et les défis systémiques (« ce qui fonctionne et ce qui ne fonctionne pas ») dans le cadre actuel du PÉR.
    5. Formuler des recommandations stratégiques visant à renforcer la conception, les mécanismes de financement et les modèles de prestation du PÉR.

    L’étude de suivi du PÉR a une portée nationale (c’est-à-dire à travers le Canada) et couvrira la période de vie du programme (de 1978 à aujourd’hui). L’étude recueillera et analysera des données en français et en anglais.

    LIVRABLES CLÉS

    La personne consultante sélectionnée (incluant toute organisation ou firme) supervisera tous les aspects de l’étude de suivi, notamment le raffinement des questions de recherche clés et de la conception de la recherche connexe, le maintien des normes éthiques, la réalisation d’une revue de littérature, la collecte et l’analyse des données, ainsi que la rédaction du rapport final.

    • Un rapport de démarrage de l’étude de suivi décrivant la méthodologie et les outils, les questions de recherche, le plan d’analyse des données et le plan de travail.

    2. La taille de l’échantillon devra assurer la représentation de communautés géographiques diverses et de types d’établissements d’enseignement variés.

In this role, you will be responsible for assisting in the development and creation of new emergency shelters/transition houses, second stage transitional housing, and permanent housing for survivors alongside gender-based violence shelter organizations.

    Women’s Shelters Canada (WSC) brings together 16 provincial and territorial shelter organizations and supports more than 620 shelters across the country for women, children, and gender-diverse people fleeing violence.

We work from a deeply feminist, intersectional, and justice-driven lens, connecting organizations, co-creating knowledge, and advocating for systemic change to end gender-based violence (GBV).

    Where You Fit

    The Manager, Funder Experience plays a central role in shaping how Co-Impact engages with its philanthropic partners across every stage of the funder journey.

    • Develop project plans for each engagement, ensuring clear ownership, timelines, and deliverables.
    • Gather participant feedback and continuously improve the quality and effectiveness of funder engagement experiences.

    Cross-functional Project Management (15%)

    • Serve as the central coordinator for cross-functional funder engagement initiatives, working across Philanthropy & Communications, Strategic Partnerships, Programs, Operations, and the Executive Office.
    • Develop and manage workplans, timelines, and stakeholder communications to ensure successful execution of engagement activities.
    • Prepare executive briefing materials and meeting packets to support leadership engagement with funders.

    Measurement & Continuous Improvement (5%)

    • Track participation, engagement metrics, and key milestones across funder engagement activities.
    • Maintain engagement calendars, dashboards, and planning tools.
    • Analyse feedback and engagement data to identify trends and recommend improvements to engagement strategies, communications, and processes.

    • Commitment to Co-Impact’s mission, values, and approach to advancing systems change through collaborative philanthropy. 
    • Flexibility across time zones to accommodate participation across global funders and ability to travel, particularly as needed to attend and support events. 

    Success in this Role

    After the first year, success in this role will include:

    • An integrated annual funder engagement calendar that is proactively managed and widely used across teams.
    • Consistently high-quality communications that strengthen funder understanding of and engagement with Co-Impact’s work.
    • Seamless execution of funder convenings, events, and program visits that reflect Co-Impact’s commitment to partnership and learning.

    About Us 

    Partners for Public Good is a nonpartisan team of doers who work alongside state and local governments to strengthen the operational systems—procurement, staffing, budgeting, and technology—that determine whether policy turns into results for residents. We go in alongside government staff through implementation, not just as advisors who deliver recommendations and leave, but as practitioners who stay until something has actually changed. Through our implementation work, applied research, and the Procurement Excellence Network—a practitioner community of more than 3,000 government professionals—we translate what we learn from individual governments into knowledge and tools that travel across jurisdictions.
