Programme/project title /affiliate identification code

Haki Mkononi – Rights in our hands / R05168 – PAFA35

Geographical coverage:

Continental – regional partner (SOAWR), Nigeria, Uganda, Tanzania, Liberia, Rwanda and South Africa

Programme/project budget

GBP 1,914,601 (including GBP 174,055 Oxfam’s contribution)

Evaluation commissioning manager

Pan Africa Gender Justice Lead

Evaluation manager

Pan Africa Programme Quality Lead

1.Background, rationale and purpose of the evaluation

These are the Terms of Reference for the final evaluation of the Haki Mkononi (HM) programme coordinated by Oxfam Pan Africa Programme. HM is a three year programme ending on 31^st March 2017. It is principally funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation (SIDA) to the total amount of GBP 1,740,546 and Oxfam’s contribution of GBP 174,055.

Oxfam and partners are implementing a project entitled “A regional empowerment programme on women rights”. The overall goal of HM is to ensure African women realize their rights as guaranteed in the African Women’s Protocol.

Managed by the Oxfam Pan Africa Programme, the project seeks to accelerate the realization of women’s rights by developing the capacity of Women Rights Organizations, legal mechanisms, national and regional structures using the Protocol to address women issues and ensure compliance towards its implementation.

Central to this overall goal are key outcomes as follows;

1. 43 women’s rights organizations have improved capacity to use the African Women’s Protocol to address women’s rights violations through regional mechanisms

2. Regional institutions (the African Union and its organs, RECs) call on state parties to adhere to obligations under the African Women’s Protocol

3. The Protocol and other regional declarations on women’s rights are increasingly applied by national governments and national justice mechanisms

The project focus countries are Nigeria, Liberia, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and South Africa with interventions at the continental level informed by country level work and experiences. Implementations and linkages of focus countries to the regional platforms are mainly ensured by the Equality Now, the secretariat to over 46 Women Rights Organizations championing compliance to African Women’s Protocol and improving women rights in the continent.

Sustainable changes in policies, practices and beliefs will often need longer to translate into measurable effects and even more so at national and regional levels. Therefore, the main aim of the evaluation will be to systematically analyse the actual outcomes of the programme and its underlying working mechanisms and processes against the proposed outcomes and Theory of Change rather than the impact level. Where available, impact level data from existing sources (including related secondary source findings) should inform the evaluation.

2.Specific object and objectives of the evaluation

The purpose of this final evaluation is two-fold:

i. Building institutional knowledge: The evaluation will inform the development of current and future gender justice (and other multi-country) programmes and projects. To maximize learning for all those involved, the methodology for the final evaluation will ensure the active involvement from Oxfam staff, partners and women.

ii. Accountability: The evaluation will ensure Oxfam’s practice of accountability to the different stakeholders in this project including but not limited to Oxfam in-country teams, CSOs, Sida, national and regional administrative and policy making teams etc.

The specific objectives of the evaluation are:

a. Stimulate reflection and learning among country offices, partners and women’s rights organisations, including learning from failures and challenges.

b. Review and validate the achievements reached under each outcome as presented in the HM annual reports (and underlying documents like bi-annual monitoring reports).

c. Validation of the Theory of Change of this project and its underlying assumptions. This means describing the process of how the changes in policies, practices and beliefs have been achieved, and analysing this against the Theory of Change of the project, including the underlying assumptions.

d. Developing concrete recommendations for future programme and project development on gender justice and for multi-country programmes in general.

3.Key questions of the evaluation

The below evaluation questions are in line with the reporting requirements of Sida (account and analysis of outcomes, analysis of factors that affected implementation and sustainability).

A. What are the principal outcomes/contributions of the HM programme as a whole? (Impact)

B. Did the approach suit the priorities and needs of the diverse groups of women and girls and their communities? Was it inclusive enough for harder-to-reach women and girls? (Relevance)

C. Based on the available evidence, did the achieved outcomes lead to long-term improvements and are the exit strategies adequate? What is the likelihood that the benefits of the programme are sustained upon its completion? (Sustainability)

D. Was the chosen approach and its practical implementation carried out in an economical and efficient way? (Efficiency)

E. Was there an advantage of conceiving this intervention as a multi-country programme? How did the regional layer contribute to its success? (Effectiveness)

NBNote that evaluation questions will be further fine-tuned throughout the process to ensure they respond to the specific information needs of our key stakeholders and purpose of evaluation.

In answering the above questions, the evaluators will also consider whether and how the use of new technologies (online platforms, radio, TV, mobile, social media) contributed to the outreach and mobilisation of women and girls.

4.Scope of the evaluation and approach and methods, establishing the basic methodological requirements (if applicable)

The evaluation will be undertaken in Nigeria, Tanzania, Liberia, Rwanda, Uganda and South Africa targeting the communities and power holders.

It is anticipated that a mix of qualitative and quantitative data collection methodologies will be used to gather data for the evaluation. Additional primary data for triangulation and verification will be collected during the country visits.

The consultant is expected to establish a representative sample for the exercise using a scientific method in the 6 countries. He/she is expected to develop effective evaluation tools for evaluation but with modification to respond to the evaluation questions.

Scope

The evaluation will encompass the whole HM programme from 1^st August 2014 up to 31^st March 2017. The evaluation will include a validation of the results of the programme as presented in the annual reports of 2015, 2016 and 2017.

The following basic principles are expected to guide the further development of the methodology:

i.Participation: Allow for the meaningful participation of project stakeholders (i.e. Oxfam staff, partners and women etc.) in the evaluation process.

ii.Data triangulation: The evaluators will gather information through different complimentary sources (outcome harvesting, process monitoring, but also direct observations of HM activities, key informant interviews, small survey data collected with help from partners/ WRO’s).

The detailed methodology proposed by the consultants should at least contain the following components:

(i) Train participants (WRO’s, partners, staff) in function of what is needed to actively take part in the evaluation

(ii) Fine-tuning of evaluation questions to the national context, together with participants

Advocacy and Media Training and EU Power Analysis Workshop

1.Background

Oxfam is a member of Oxfam International (OI) – an international confederation of 17 organizations working together in 90 countries with partners and allies around the world to find lasting solutions to poverty and injustice. On a global level, OI strives to help communities suffering as a result of natural disasters, climate change, conflict, injustice and poverty. OI helps those communities who are most in need, whatever their race, creed, religion, ethnicity or nationality. Oxfam has been working in OPTI since 1982 and supports humanitarian, development, campaigning and advocacy programmes both in the West Bank and Gaza including East Jerusalem.

Oxfam works with local civil society partners in order to amplify their voices and increase their influencing capacity, in alignment to Oxfam’s Country strategy (OCS) and influencing strategy in the Occupied Palestinian Territories and Israeli (OPTI). Palestinian and Israeli Civil Society partners play a crucial role in influencing international stakeholders to increasingly hold Israel accountable for respect of international humanitarian law (IHL) and human rights (HR). Capacity-building for our partners is aimed at increasing their influence, both in the nature of the advocacy work they do and in building internal organizational strength in advocacy capacity. Media and advocacy training for staff actively and/or for those who would potentially be engaging in advocacy work of their organizations will help advance both these capacity building aspects.
