Caritas Ethiopia/Ethiopian Catholic Church Social and Development Commission, with the fund obtained from Caritas Australia is currently designing a project known as “Innovative Climate-Smart Livelihood Enhancement for Resilience Building Project (CLEAR)” to be implemented at Dasanech District of South Omo Zone, Endegagna District of Guraghe Zone, South Nations and Nationality Peoples Region and Chara District of Kafa Zone of South West Region, Ethiopia.

As part of project design, Caritas Ethiopia wants to commission the Gender, Child Protection, Disability and Safeguarding Audit to competent and experienced consultant. The audit will explore Caritas Ethiopia’s capacity and analyse gender, child protection and disability related strengths and gaps in project communities to understand the current context and identify potential program activities and approaches to address challenges within these thematic areas. The audit and its recommendations will then lead to the formulation of a Gender, Child Protection and Disability Strategy in the new 5-year program design with dedicated gender, protection and disability trainings, technical assistance, and activities. It will also establish a proxy baseline against which progress and outcomes in this critical area of work can be measured. In addition, the Audit will also help to identify actions to build the internal capacity of partner

In recent times safeguarding (Prevention of sexual exploitation, abuse and harassment and child safeguarding) has been an increasing area of focus for the international aid and development sector. Safeguarding should also be considered in this audit to understand and identify safeguarding related strengths, gaps and capacity building actions of partners.

Interested and qualified consultant on this thematic area can find ToR on our website cbce-gs.org and submit their technical and financial proposals in hard and soft copies within 5 days from the date of announcement of this tender on the Reporter News Paper.
