Tender description

Supporting Partnerships for Accountability and Civic Engagement (SPACE) is a new programme supported by DFID to improve engagement between government and civil society in Myanmar. The funding will support civil society and local authorities to make public institutions more responsive to people's service delivery and economic needs. SPACE is comprised of four components and this is component number 4: Evidence and Learning: DFID will appoint a new supplier for up to 40 months to learn as much as possible from SPACE investments, and other related initiatives, in terms of what works and what doesn't in fostering a more productive relationship between local government and communities. The objective of Component Four: Evidence and Learning is to ensure high quality, independent assessment and analysis of what works in terms of promoting improved civic engagement in Burma, and the impacts this brings in terms of deepening peace and democracy and improving access to services and economic opportunities. The programme will work closely with the three other components of SPACE to evaluate the impacts of DFID investments, as well as promoting the use of evidence in policy making.
