How to Apply for Call for Tenders: Project End Evaluation

at Humanity & Inclusion

🏢 About Humanity & Inclusion

Humanity & Inclusion (HI) is a global federation dedicated to improving the lives of people with disabilities in humanitarian contexts. Their 'Leave No One Behind' project series is a flagship initiative that mainstreams disability inclusion across humanitarian action, making HI a leader in this niche but critical field. Working here means contributing to a mission that ensures the most marginalized are not forgotten in crises.

About This Role

This role involves conducting an external end evaluation of the Phase 4 'Leave No One Behind!' project, assessing its performance, relevance, partnerships, and influence on global policy. The evaluation will also consider the cumulative impact of all four phases, making it a high-visibility assignment that directly informs future disability-inclusive programming. As a remote consultant, you'll have flexibility while working with a global team committed to evidence-based learning.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might involve reviewing project documents and conducting virtual interviews with HI staff, partners, and OPD representatives across different time zones. You'll spend time analyzing data using qualitative coding software and drafting sections of the evaluation report, while coordinating with HI's evaluation manager to ensure alignment with the terms of reference. Evenings might include participating in webinars on disability inclusion to stay current with sector trends.
