Integration Indicators Synthesis Research

Tender description

The aim of this research is to synthesise best practice of both documents to create a revised version that would help inform planning, monitoring and evaluation of integration projects in Wales.The Welsh Government wishes to commission a contractor to produce an Indicators of Integration Framework applicable to Wales, to be used as an accessible resource for integration practitioners at all levels, offering a common language for understanding, planning, monitoring and measuring integration of forced migrants to Wales, supporting better and more tailored integration services in Wales, and informing the design, delivery and monitoring/evaluation of integration projects in Wales. Specifically this work will:• Create an Indicators of Integration synthesised document for Wales to assist organisations to improve integration in Wales. The document should take into account the context within Wales, including the Well-being of Future Generations Act, and the powers of the national and local government in Wales.• Develop a set of outcome indicators and indicators of good practice at local and national level that can be used to monitor/evaluate forced migrant integration in Wales;• Identify what existing datasets and measurement tools in operation locally, nationally and internationally can be used to monitor/evaluate forced migrant integration in Wales and provide recommendations in relation to the development of new datasets and measurement tools where required. To include an assessment of practical and resource constraints associated with data collection and handling;• Provide recommendations for how Integration Indicators developed through this work can be made accessible and user-friendly for public authorities, third sector bodies and others to ensure measurement of integration becomes embedded practice in Wales.These objectives should not necessarily be seen as exhaustive, tenderers may propose additional objectives that they feel would contribute to the broad aims of the studyNOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the Sell2Wales Web Site at https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=117637.The buyer has indicated that it will accept electronic responses to this notice via the Postbox facility.
