Terms of Reference for Consultancy Contract to Conduct a Baseline Study

 

Background

Founded in 1945, CARE (Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere) is a leading international humanitarian organization fighting global poverty. CARE started working in Ethiopia in 1984 in response to severe drought and famine. The main focus of our work is addressing the root causes of poverty and vulnerability through nexus and development programming as well as a humanitarian response. This includes programming for improved governance; water and sanitation; food security; women's economic justice; sexual and reproductive health and rights; nutrition; and household and community-level resilience. Our programs are implemented across both rural and urban areas.

CARE Ethiopia works in multiple sectors including the following priorities: Food Security; Livelihoods & Resilience; Nutrition; Water, Sanitation & Hygiene; Humanitarian  Response; Sexual & Reproductive Health & Rights; Women's Economic Justice; Dignified Work. CARE's operation spans the majority of the country: Afar, Amhara, Oromia, SNNP, Sidama, Somali, Tigray, Addis Ababa, and Dire Dawa.

OBJECTIVES OF THE SERVICE CONTRACT

The main objectives are:

  1. To set the baselines for all long frame indicators (disaggregated as indicated in the long frame which includes gender, age, location, and vulnerability);
  2. Inform project targeting and, where possible, project design (especially, to maximize the inclusion of all target groups, with a focus on marginalized and  excluded groups, based on ADA's "Environmental, Gender and Social Standards" (EGSS) checklist) and to identify any additional potentials and opportunities to achieve our impact that is not yet included in the project's design and theory of change;
  3. Inform about any existing conflicts affecting beneficiaries and existing individuals/platforms addressing those conflicts, as well as priorities of the communities and all key project participants;
  4. To test the feasibility of proposed indicators and generate recommendations for refining the indicator list.
