OVERVIEW OF CTG GLOBAL

CTG support and manage humanitarian projects in fragile and conflict-affected countries around the world. With past performance in 15 countries – from the Middle East, Africa, Europe, Asia and Central and South America – we offer a holistic fabric of project management, implementation and support. Skilled in emergency response to crises such as the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, we have the ability to act quickly (crisis response teams can be on the ground in 24 hours) and to establish structured operations in high-risk environments. CTG recruit and manage qualified, skilled teams with extensive experience operating in challenging conditions.

OVERVIEW OF THE POSITION

Monitoring aid flows is an integral part of the overarching Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) frameworks of the New Deal in Somalia and will be key to ensure an effective implementation of the National Development Plan.

The reporting and monitoring arrangements of the Somali Compact specify that a framework should be established to monitor Compact implementation. The monitoring of aid flows will be led by the Somali Government.

Government authorities and development partners expressed dissatisfaction with the system for tracking aid flows — the Development Assistance Database (DAD) established by the client for the government- which was set up in the country in 2011 which operated until 2015. During that period the use of the DAD has been irregular and tracking of aid flows has been largely stymied. Lessons from other countries indicate that successful aid information management systems (AIMS) rely not only on technological solutions but also on the institutional arrangements to encourage participation and reporting.

In 2014, government authorities recognized the need to conduct a review of the Development Assistance Database (DAD) and broader Aid Information Management in Somalia. In the “Concept Note for Developing a Somali Compact Monitoring Framework,” endorsed by the SDRF Steering Committee. In August 2014, a review of the Somalia AIMS was identified as an essential next step for improving the quality of aid flow data. In response to this identified need, Our Clients supported a joint-consultancy assignment which was carried out in 2015. The consultancy included consultations with government, development partners and civil society, and resulted in the identification and proposal of strategic options tailored to the Somali context that respond to expectations of Somali stakeholders and donors.

These expectations mostly relate to the need to ensure that aid information management is nationally led and owned, simple and sustainable, contributes to improved communication and trust-building between government and donors, and helps develop institutional capacity.

They refer also to the need for the data collection, verification, analysis, dissemination and interpretation process to be easy to manage by the different parties involved, and for the information to be accessible for citizenship. Within this framework, and based on the recommendations of the Aid Information Management Review, the Federal Government of Somalia is requesting support to UNDP for the development of a Somali-led Somali-owned Aid Information Management System which allows to have timely information about aid flows delivered in the country as well as of foreseen envelopes to be invested in the country in the short and mid-term by development co-operation providers while promoting transparency and greater accountability on which type of aid is delivered in Somalia and how. The intention is that the Government of Somaliland would be endowed with a dedicated ‘window’ to enter and view data.

GENERAL FUNCTIONS

Role objective:

The main objective of the consultancy is to support the procurement by the client of a new Aid Information Management System in Somalia, with a focus on ensuring that different Somali institutions are informed of and agree with the process. The national consultant will work in coordination with the international consultant hired by our clients. The procurement process will be based on the recommendations of the Aid Information Management Review conducted in Somalia in 2015 and will engage the Federal Government of Somalia.

Expected output:

Under the leadership of the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Planning & International Cooperation (MOPIC) of the Federal Government of Somalia and in close coordination with the international consultant and UNDP, the national consultant will provide support to facilitate the implementation of the tender process for the new Aid Management Information System. The main deliverables the consultant will contribute to include:

o Functional specifications

o Technical specifications

o Evaluation grid

o Specifications of the development / design process which includes national partners

UNICEF Zimbabwe is inviting proposals from individual International consultants for theDevelopment ofResource Mobilization Toolkit.

Background

Communicating the UNICEF country programme with partners, donors, and the general public lies at the heart of UNICEF’s communication and public advocacy work. It is critical that these audiences are familiar with UNICEF’s work across the entire spectrum of UNICEF programming and are conversant with the impact of these programmes. Information is also critical to dispelling myths and wrong facts about what UNICEF does and does not do.

But public communication also plays an equally important role in resource mobilization and fundraising. Often, it is awareness and familiarity with a programme that directly leads to resource mobilization. Donors are less likely to contribute to a programme that they know the least about, and vice-versa.

The current UNICEF Zimbabwe country programme is now in its first year of implementation. It is critical that a resource mobilization toolkit be developed to reflect the new programme, the changed programming realities, achievements, and challenges, and funding needs. It is equally important that the toolkit be accompanied by a country kit that explains UNICEF actions in Zimbabwe.

• Undertake informant interviews with programme staff to gain an understanding of programme goals, strategies, achievements, the programming environment, and funding needs.

• Submit a concept for the toolkit for clearance by UNICEF. The concept should include editorial content, layout and design, which will capture the objectives of the toolkit and tailored for its target audiences.

• Undertake field visits to selected project sites to research stories for the human interest angle.

Save the Children is the world's leading independent organisation for children. We work in 120 countries. We save children's lives; we fight for their rights; we help them fulfil their potential.

We work together, with our partners, to inspire breakthroughs in the way the world treats children and to achieve immediate and lasting change in their lives.

We have over two million supporters worldwide and raised 1.9 billion dollars last year to reach more children than ever before, through programmes in health, nutrition, education, protection and child rights, also in times of humanitarian crises.

Following a major transition, our international programmes are now delivered through a merged operation with 15,000 staff, managed through seven regional hubs and reporting to a relatively small, central office. We're changing to become more efficient, more aligned, a better partner, a stronger advocate, a magnet for world-class people and relevant for the 21st century.
