GGGI-Burkina Faso is seeking a national consultant for the Midterm Evaluation of the Building Resilience in Kaya-Dori axis. This is a deliverable-based consultancy position that will provide technical support to GGGI Country Office.
The consultant is required to interact closely with relevant project members and stakeholders on a regular basis. He/She is expected to work from the GGGI offices on a regular basis during the period of the consultancy. Any changes in work location (during part of the consultancy) would need to be agreed with GGGI prior to the start of the consultancy. A non-disclosure agreement of the data and information obtained and reviewed during this assignment may be required.
The Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) seeks an individual consultant to conduct a mid-term evaluation of the Building Resilience in Kaya-Dori Axis in Burkina Faso (hereinafter the “Project”). The evaluation is intended to refine the Project’s implementation during its remaining period based on an independent assessment of results achieved and lessons learned. The primary audience for the evaluation is the Project Steering Committee (PSC) as well as GGGI’s Africa Regional Office. GGGI’s Burkina Faso Country Program will manage the evaluation with GGGI’s Impact and Evaluation Unit providing technical oversight.
GGGI is an intergovernmental organization established with the objective of promoting sustainable development of developing and emerging countries including the least developed countries. Its vision is a low-carbon, resilient world of strong, inclusive, and sustainable growth; and its mission is to support Member countries in the transformation of their economies to a green growth economic model.
GGGI started its operations in Burkina Faso since 2018 and has been supporting the country in its transition on a green growth pathway. GGGI’s current Country Planning Framework (CPF) 2023-2027, developed together with the Government of Burkina Faso, is focused on scaling up green investment, strengthening climate action, promoting climate resilient agriculture, promoting renewable energy and energy efficiency, and has a cross-cutting dimension promoting social inclusion and add value in the context of fragility and the humanitarian-development nexus.
In March 2023, GGGI and the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) signed a funding agreement for the delivery of the “Building Resilience in Kaya-Dori Axis in Burkina Faso” (the “Project”). The Project’s objective is “to improve the living conditions and livelihoods of vulnerable communities within the Kaya-Dori axis (municipalities of Kaya and Pissila)”.
GGGI identified in the Project proposal that the Centre-North Region hosts more than 50% of Burkina Faso’s internally displaced population. The humanitarian emergency exacerbates previous challenges of degradation of natural resources, the lack of water (for drinking and irrigation), and the continuation of traditional, climate vulnerable farming and animal husbandry methods.
The Project has been designed around three outcomes, namely:
GGGI is the lead implementing agency of the Project. The Project’s implementation is overseen by a Technical Project Coordination Committee (PSC). That meets every 6 months to review project results and provide guidance over implementation. This PSC is composed of representatives from:
As of June 2024, the Project has achieved the following key results by outcome:
Outcome 1: The local capacity to manage the humanitarian emergency among displaced people is increased
Outcome 2: Green, resilient and inclusive local development of communities where IDPs reinstall is ensured
Outcome 3: The governance capacity for local green recovery, peace building, and reconciliation is strengthened
The key objective of this evaluation is to review and assess the extent to which the Project is contributing to improving the living conditions and livelihoods of vulnerable groups, including internally displaced people as well as their host households, in the five target villages in the municipalities of Kaya and Pissila, Centre-Nord Region. The evaluation will cover all Project activities delivered between April 2023 and September 2024 (i.e. 18 months). These covers activities delivered by GGGI as well as its implementing partners (i.e., APIL and ATAD).
Specifically, the evaluation seeks to answer the following key evaluation questions (KEQs),
