Description

Actual CPV code is '75211200 Foreign Economic-Aid Related Services'.

Programme information DFID is seeking a Supplier to serve as Evaluation Manager under its programme for Investments in Forests and Sustainable Land Use (IFSLU).

The Supplier will coordinate a process of evaluation and learning from programme interventions throughout the duration of the contract. Investments in Forests and Sustainable Land Use is a new centrally-managed programme with the broad aim of catalysing increased private investment in sustainable forestry and 'zero-deforestation' agriculture.

DFID has committed funding of £60 million to an initial phase of the programme, funded from the UK Government's International Climate Fund (ICF).

A technical assistance facility led by Palladium International has been established to manage the programme, offering grants and technical assistance to develop and support public-private partnerships over a five year period (November 2015-November 2020).

DFID is now seeking an Evaluation Manager to develop and implement an evaluation strategy for Investments in Forests and Sustainable Land Use, focused primarily on the outcome level of the programme and on learning across programme activities.
