Purpose of consultancy:

The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) is the United Nations sexual and reproductive health agency. Its mission is to deliver a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every childbirth is safe and every young person’s potential is fulfilled. Within the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals and the Programme of Action of the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD), UNFPA is working towards three transformative results: (i) zero preventable maternal deaths; (ii) zero unmet need for family planning; and (iii) zero gender-based violence and harmful practices, including female genital mutilation and child, early and forced marriage. The UNFPA South Africa Country Office (SACO) is currently implementing the 5th Country Programme (CP) (2020-2025) with the Government of South Africa and other partners. The goal of the CP is to achieve universal access to sexual and reproductive health and reproductive rights and accelerate the implementation of the ICPD Programme of Action, to improve the lives of women, adolescents and youth. In pursuit of this goal, the UNFPA South Africa CO seeks to achieve results in the following thematic areas of programming under the CP: (i) adolescents and youth ii) gender and social norms (iii) population change and data

Scope of work:

In line with the 2024 UNFPA Evaluation Policy, the UNFPA SACO is planning to conduct an evaluation of its 5th CP (2020-2025) The purpose of the Country Programme Evaluation (CPE) is to strengthen accountability to stakeholders, support evidence-based decision-making, and improve learning. The overall objective of the CPE is to provide an independent assessment of the performance of the CP and to broaden the evidence base for the design of the next programme cycle. The evaluation will cover all interventions in the three thematic areas of the CP, which have been implemented across three UNFPA supported provinces namely Eastern Cape, KwaZulu-Natal and Limpopo, during the programme’s period. The thematic areas are described in section 3 of the terms of reference. In addition, the evaluation will also cover cross-cutting issues, such as cross-cutting issues: human rights, gender equality, disability, displacement and migration status, etc., and transversal functions, such as coordination, monitoring and evaluation, innovation, resource mobilization, strategic partnerships, etc.

Evaluation team: The CPE will be conducted by a multidisciplinary team of consultants. They should collectively have the qualifications and experience to design and implement a methodologically robust evaluation and cover all the above-mentioned thematic areas of the CP. The evaluation team will consist of:

Team leader: An international consultant with primary responsibility for the design of the evaluation methodology and the coordination of the evaluation team, as described in section 12.1 of the terms of reference. The team leader will also demonstrate the qualifications, experience and skills required to serve as a technical expert for one of the thematic areas. 

Thematic experts: National consultants  should demonstrate the qualifications, experience and skills required to serve as technical expert in at least one of the thematic areas, as described in section 12.1 of the terms of reference.

Candidates must clearly indicate the thematic area(s) for which they demonstrate the requested expertise. See the attached terms of reference for more details on the CPE as well as on the required qualifications and experience of the team leader and team members (section 12.2). Section 10 indicates the evaluation timeline and the expected evaluation deliverables are described in section 8.

Duration and working schedule:

The consultancy will have a duration of maximum 6 months (April – September)

Place where services are to be delivered:

The consultancy will be primarily home-based, with field visits to the implementation sites departments, institutions, partners, facilities and organizations as needed. UNFPA will arrange the logistics for this work.
