Call for proposals: Joint MFS II evaluations
23 September 2011
On 19 September 2011 NWO-WOTRO launched three international calls for proposals concerning the joint MFS II evaluations. The respective deadlines for submission are 31 October, 1 November and 2 November 2011.
MFS II is the 2011-2015 grant framework for Dutch co-financing agencies (CFA’s) directed at achieving poverty reduction and sustainable development. A total of 20 consortia of Dutch CFAs have been awarded €1.9 billion in MFS II grants by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFa). MFS II-funded organisations support a wide range of development activities of a large number of Southern partner organisations in over 70 countries. The MFS II framework requires that each consortium carries out independent external evaluations. 19 out of the 20 consortia decided to have their MFS II-funded or –co-funded activities jointly evaluated.
On behalf of these consortia, NWO-WOTRO is issuing three calls for proposals:
- Call one: 'joint MFS II evaluations of development interventions at country level';
- Call two: 'synthesis of joint MFS II evaluations at country level';
- Call three: 'joint MFS II evaluation of international lobbying & advocacy'.
The overall purpose of the joint MFS II evaluations is to account for results of MFS II-funded or co-funded development interventions implemented by Dutch CFAs and/or their Southern partners and to contribute to the improvement of future development interventions. Applications will be assessed on the quality of the proposals and the quality of the research team.
