DFID 7906 Strenghtening Research and Knowledge Systems Evaluation Call Down Contract

Tender description

This evaluation is to focus solely on the programme Strengthening Research and Knowledge Systems from its start date (April 2013) up until the evaluation. It is expected to encompass both intended outputs and outcomes and also to investigate unintended consequences, both positive and negative. It is being commissioned under GEFA Lot 2 since we are interested in contribution to development outcomes and impacts within its context. The evaluation is expected to cover the SRKS programme as a whole, across all supported countries. However, we recognise that detailed assessments will need to be more selective and the need to concentrate evaluation resources (in order to secure depth of understanding and, also, to ensure the evaluation represents value for money). We suggest an approach based on country case studies.
