Description

'The UK Government is working to support a more stable, secure and prosperous Yemen. DFID's goal is to help Yemen prevent and manage crises and address the drivers of conflict and poverty by addressing urgent humanitarian needs, delivering basic services, and supporting political and economic reform. Information on all of DFID's programmes in Yemen (live and completed) is available on DFID's Development Tracker. DFID now wishes to develop a new programme to support poor women and men in Yemen to exercise greater choice and control over their own development and to hold their government to account, through a more effective and inclusive civil society. Objective DFID wishes to appoint a Service Provider or consortium (SP) to design and manage the new programme. The programme will have 2 strategic objectives: Help Yemeni citizens advocate for better service delivery and more transparent public expenditure at the local level; and link local-level activism with national-level advocacy to bring about more responsive, accountable and transparent policy making and budgeting, including reforms to address corruption; Support representatives from excluded groups (women, youth, etc.) to become candidates in local, regional and parliamentary elections and advocate effectively for more inclusive and representative public bodies.'
