Composition of the Evaluation Team will mirror the diverse technical program areas of [multi-year food security programs]. It will be composed of a total of four (4) consultants: three (3) international consultants and one (1) local consultant. The complexity of the program also requires that the team members have broad experience not only in their relevant fields but also be able to apply their expertise in a multi-disciplinary environment. The evaluation team is expected to have expertise in the following areas:

• Evaluation • Quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis • Maternal Child Health and Nutrition • Livelihoods • Agriculture or Natural Resource Management • Early Warning or Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) • Food for Education • Food programming of Title II programs • Local Capacity building • Gender • Cost-Effectiveness Analysis

Above all, the Team Leader should be conversant with Title II programs and with prior experience in evaluating similar multi-sectoral programs. The Team Leader should have at least 10 years of rural development/food security experience as well as at least 7 years evaluation experience (using both quantitative and qualitative methods) with food security programs. He/she will be responsible for planning the evaluation, coordinating the implementation of the evaluation, assigning responsibilities and tasks, and authoring the report, in particular findings, conclusions and recommendations. He/she must be fluent in both English and French and have team management experience.

The assistant team leader should be a Haitian national with experience in implementing mix-methods (quantitative and qualitative) surveys. He/she must have a Master of Science in statistics and/or in any related social science field (agronomy, economy or sociology).

He/she should have the ability to plan the routes for the data collection, form and schedule the fieldwork teams, which are generally composed of supervisors and interviewers.

The other two consultants should have combined expertise that will best complete the team’s leader profile to ensure that all areas of expertise required for the evaluation are effectively covered. Team members should have at least 10 years rural development/food security experience, preferably in Latin America. All team members should be fluent in French and English.

Organization: COOPI - Cooperazione Internazionale
Country: Democratic Republic of the Congo
Closing date: 11 Mar 2013

· TITRE DU POSTE

Food Security Coordinator du projet "Assist returning IDPs from the current North Kivu crisis"

· Lieu

Goma (chef de lieu de la Province du Nord Kivu), RDCongo

Goma est une ville de l'est de la République démocratique du Congo. Située à environ 1 500 mètres d'altitude dans la vallée du Rift, Goma est le chef-lieu de la province du Nord-Kivu.

Suite au sommet de Kampala du 24 novembre 2012, les troupes rebelles de l’M23 se sont retirées de la ville de Goma, après s’en être emparé le 20 novembre 2012. A cause des combats entre les troupes du gouvernement et les rebelles, au moins 140.000 personnes se sont déplacées. A présent la ville est calme. Durant les émeutes le personnel local et expatrié de COOPI est resté sur place, en continuant à travailler, où possible, afin de supporter la population locale.

· Durée: janvier 2013 pour 12 mois

· Départ : février 2013

· Bailleurs : DFID

· COOPI dans le pays :

La première intervention de COOPI en République Démocratique du Congo (ex-Zaïre) remonte aux années ’70 et l’action s’est principalement située dans le Kivu pendant de nombreuses années. Suite aux changements de la situation dans le Pays et aux problématiques nées, les activités de COOPI se sont déplacées dans les régions de conflits afin de mettre en œuvre des programmes d’urgence aux populations déplacées et victimes de la guerre. En raison de l’évolution du contexte général en cours dans certaines provinces du Pays, COOPI s’est aussi engagée dans la gestion de projets pluriannuels afin d’assurer une phase de transition de l’urgence au développement dans divers domaines, afin de garantir un développement harmonieux et durable.

· Description du projet Project title

Humanitarian emergency support to the return of the IDPs in North Kivu.# Location

Democratic Republic of the Congo#, North Kivu, territory of Nyiragongo, Health zone/Zone de Santé of Karisimbi Total Amount

Total amount in USD: $ 1.200.000 Project summary

The project, following the priority definition made by the CPIA of the North Kivu, wants to support the return of the IDPs in the territory of Nyiragongo, offering them medical care and improving their access to food.

At present, COOPI is working in the zone providing medical care in AS Kibumba, AS Kingarame and AS Kazisi (it is the only humanitarian actor present in those health areas), but the IDPs’ needs are bigger than our current capacity of assistance, so an increased response is required.

As a matter of fact,# the IDPs, after months of constant movement and therefore in precarious medical and nutritional conditions, return to areas where sanitary facilities (Centres de Santé/CS) have been looted, healthcare staff is poor, medicines are insufficient and harvests have been stolen.

It is therefore necessary# to ensure the access of the population to free and quality health care, combining the medical treatment of maternal and child malnutrition with an improved access to food.

Considering that the population lives in a border zone between the national army and the rebels (FARDC and M23), the SGBV survivors will benefit both medical and psychosocial care (to avoid stigmatization of SGBV survivors, the treatment will be integrated into the health centres and not in dedicated facilities).

Furthermore, the family subsistence system will be supported by improving the availability, access and use of food.

Therefore the project wants to give an immediate response to the IDPs’ needs, but it also contributes to strengthening the resilience and to the re-consolidation of households, acting directly on the main causes of vulnerability.

The added value of the project lies in the holistic intervention in favour of the IDPs: preventive and curative health care, nutritional care and improvement of means of subsistence. The methodology of the intervention is to enhance the response capacities in the ZS Karisimbi (Health Zone/Zone de Santé) through:

· Support of the central pharmacy in the Health zone, in order to make it capable of responding to health centres’ requirements for drugs in areas where there are either spontaneous IDPs sites or a large concentration of IDPs in foster families.

· Strengthening the BCZ Karisimbi (Bureau Central de la Zone de Santé/#health zone central office#) in its supervisory capacity over the different Health Areas that belong to it

· Technical and equipment support in health centres (Centres de Santé/CS).

Beneficiaries

The project targets the population of the Karisimbi health zone (561.048 people) with special attention to the population of the health areas (Aires de Santé/AS) of Kibumba, Kingarame, Kazisi and Mudja (42.970 people) Period

From January 2013 to December 2013 (12 months)

Contexte Mali

Le Mali est affecté par une crise politique, sécuritaire et humanitaire d’une ampleur et d’une complexité sans précèdent. Elle se caractérise, au niveau politico-militaire, par un conflit qui a touché 1 721 391 personnes dans le nord du pays, limitant leur accès aux infrastructures d’eau ainsi qu’aux services sociaux de base et il a occasionné le déplacement de 390 000, dont 240 000 personnes déplacées internes et 150 000 réfugiés maliens principalement au Burkina Faso, Niger et Mauritanie. Les acteurs de la nutrition estiment qu’en 2013, 660 000 enfants de moins de 5 ans souffriront de malnutrition aigüe au Mali, dont 210 000 de malnutrition aiguë sévère (estimation basée sur la SMART 2012) ; sans un appui massif, les structures de santé existantes ne pourront pas assurer la prise en charge de ces enfants. A la suite de l’enquête du PAM/SAP sur la sécurité alimentaire, le Cluster Sécurité alimentaire a conclu que 2 millions de personnes encourent un risque d’insécurité alimentaire. Ces chiffres incluent 747,000 personnes ayant un besoin immédiat d’assistance alimentaire au Mali, ainsi que 1.3 millions de personnes à risque d’insécurité alimentaire. Cette crise alimentaire, sanitaire et nutritionnelle a été aggravée par la détérioration de la situation sécuritaire au nord perturbant l’appui de certains acteurs humanitaires et laissant les populations sans assistance. La réduction des conditions d’accès à l’eau potable et à des structures d’assainissement constitue un risque majeur de propagation d’épidémies et autres maladies vectorielles, et représente un frein structurel à l’amélioration de l’état nutritionnel et sanitaire des populations, particulièrement des enfants.
