Market summary

Objectives of the evaluation

The evaluation concerns the SIA programme of Iles de Paix (IDP) in Uganda, for the period 2017-2021: PROMOTION OF SUSTAINABLE FAMILY FARMING AND SOCIAL ECONOMY FOR A FAIRER WORLD.

In this country, the program is implemented by partners in the following areas:

  • Kabarole District: Local partner RCA (previously SATNET) Local partner JESE
  • Kamwenge District: Local partner JESE

This evaluation must meet the requirements of learning and accountability to the financial donor that is the DGD. It must make it possible to assess the achievement of results and to draw lessons for future interventions.

In particular, the objective of this evaluation is to assess all the program’s results, whether or not they have been achieved, on the basis of DAC criteria. The new DAC criteria do not need to be taken into account for this current program and the evaluation will therefore focus on the criteria of relevance, impact, effectiveness, efficiency, sustainability as well as the cross-cutting dimensions of gender and environment.

It will therefore:

  • For each of the results of the program (including SOs):
  • Assess the achievement of the result in terms of quality and quantity
  • Qualify the relevance, impact, effectiveness, efficiency and sustainability of the changes observed in the field
  • For the program as a whole:
  • Appreciate the consideration of the transversal gender dimension
  • Appreciate the consideration of the cross-cutting environmental dimension
  • For specific aspects of the program:
  • Respond to the specific evaluation questions proposed

 

Summary of the expectations of the providers

Fields of evaluation

The evaluation will report on the results of the SIA program carried out by Iles de Paix in Uganda.

For this evaluation, the consultant may refer to the program’s Theory of Change, through which the desired results are made explicit. However, the consultant should focus on assessing the relevance, impact, effectiveness, efficiency and sustainability of the results achieved in accordance with DAC requirements.

Relevance: The degree to which an aid activity is relevant to the needs of the target group and the priorities of the beneficiary.

Effectiveness: The degree to which the objectives of an activity are achieved.

Efficiency: Measures the relationship between the results - qualitative and quantitative - and the resources used to achieve them within a given time frame. An economic concept, efficiency means using the least expensive resources possible to ensure that the desired results are achieved. Therefore, to determine whether the most efficient process has been adopted, it is usually necessary to compare it with other possible ways of achieving the same results.

Sustainability: Measures the chance that the benefits of a development intervention will survive after the intervention ends. The potential for survival of the intervention after the end of the grant is assessed according to three aspects: financial sustainability, social sustainability and knowledge transfer/capacity building.

Impact: positive and negative effects, direct or indirect, intended or unintended, induced by an intervention in support of development.

Ce guide est un recueil de bonnes pratiques dans l’utilisation de la formule « soutien financier à des tiers » dans le cadre de projets financés par l’UE dans les pays de voisinage et élargissement (DG NEAR).

Summary

Les OSC dans les pays voisins de l’UE et pays futurs candidats à intégrer l’UE ont acquis une expérience significative dans la gestion de la formule « soutien financier à des tiers (Financial Support to Third Parties – FSTP, en anglais), possible dans les projets financés par l’UE.

DG NEAR a lancé un processus collaboratif, qui a mis ensemble partenaires d’implémentation de toutes les régions NEAR (Balkans occidentaux et Turquie, voisinage oriental et méridional) pour permettre un échange entre pairs sur les différentes pratiques et expériences dans la mise en œuvre du FSTP. L’objectif était de co-créer ce recueil de bonnes pratiques en matière de FSTP, qui vise à documenter la diversité des approches, des expériences et des leçons tirés dans l’utilisation du soutien financier à des tiers.

Le guide est articulé autour de trois thèmes principaux : l’appel et les procédures de sélection ; le développement des capacités ; et le suivi et les rapports à l’UE.

Summary of the expectations of the providers

I. Context of the call for expressions of interest

  1. The association
    Humanity & Inclusion is an international solidarity association specializing in the field of disability. Non-governmental, non-denominational, non-political and non-profit, it works in all contexts alongside vulnerable populations, including people with disabilities, to provide them with assistance and support in developing their social participation and autonomy. Since its creation, the organization has implemented development programs in nearly 60 countries and works in emergency and development contexts. Most of its projects include technical support to partners and institutions to improve the inclusion of people with disabilities affected by their interventions. To do this, HI has developed a pool of senior internal specialists in different sectors of intervention (see below), both in the field and at headquarter.

  4. Background to the creation of a pool of external consultants on Disability Inclusion
    In addition to the technical support provided in the framework of our humanitarian and development projects to vulnerable people, and in order to promote and have more impact on the inclusion of people with disabilities in particular, HI decided in 2016 to develop a technical assistance service offer dedicated to the inclusion of people with disabilities.
    To date, HI has developed 3 types of INCLUSION Technical Assistance (ITA) service offers:
     ITA "Inclusive project or programming": To make a project or an organization of international cooperation more inclusive to beneficiaries with disabilities of humanitarian or development projects (NGOs, donors, international agencies...)
     ATI "inclusive employer": To make an employer more inclusive of disabled employees (companies, NGOs, donors...)
     ITA "Inclusive policy or service": To make a public policy or service more inclusive to users and citizens with disabilities (institutional, local to national)
    Thus, from the initial assessment of the level of inclusiveness to long-term coaching, HI advises NGOs, donors, multinational companies and governments on the sustainable inclusion of people with disabilities, ensuring adaptation to local needs and contexts and to sectoral specificities.
