Individual Consultant Contract: Monitoring and Evaluation Consultant  Position: Monitoring and Evaluation Consultant Category: Individual Consultant Contract Duration: 11 months Duty Station: UNFPA Nepal Country Office, Kathmandu Deadline: Monday, 4 January 2021 by 5.00 pm Nepal time About this position: UNFPA Nepal seeks to recruits an M&E Consultant for a period of 11 months (Feb. to Dec. 2021) on a full time basis to support the M&E related functions of the CSE project in particular and SRH outcome in general. Background:  UNFPA works with the Government of Nepal and other partners to develop and implement a Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) programme that meets the international technical standards. UNFPA advocates for policies on, and investments in, CSE, both in and out of schools; strengthening teacher’s knowledge and capacities on delivery of quality CSE; and improving young people’s access to CSE. The Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) has funded the CSE project which is implemented in coordination with the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (MoEST) and its respective division/unit and through various implementing partners. About the CSE Project: The DFAT funded CSE project Phase I commenced in March 2016, aimed to ensure that young people (in and out of school) have adequate information and knowledge about CSE to enable them to make informed decisions about their own sexual and reproductive health as well as to develop their self-esteem and life skills. The project was implemented in five UNFPA working districts: Bajhang, Baitadi, Rukum, Sindhuli, and Udayapur. Phase I focused on policy advocacy for effective CSE integration, development of teacher’s training and resource materials, and training of teachers. In addition, Adolescents Friendly Information Corners (AFICs) were established in the working districts for young people’s increased access to CSE information, with linkage with certified Adolescents Friendly Service Sites (AFHS) supported by UNFPA. Currently, UNFPA is implementing the third phase of the Comprehensive Sexuality Education Project, that is, ‘Preventing Gender Based Violence through the Expansion of Comprehensive Sexuality Education’. The project is for five years’ period, and started in August 2020. This project overlaps with the implementation period of the second phase project, AGEE (Achieving Gender Equality through Education) BADHAU through the Expansion of Comprehensive Sexuality Education in Schools’, which ends in July 2021. Also, additional bilateral funding is received for the targeted expansion of the project interventions. Hence, the shift in the Theory of Change and revision of the M&E framework requires establishing a robust M&E system for regular collection of data, monitoring, and reporting for the CSE project results. Eligibility: Bachelor’s degree in Public Health, Statistics, Population, Demography or related discipline is required. Five years of relevant experience in monitoring and evaluation; prior experience in Result Based Management and M&E is preferred. Excellent computer knowledge and skills.
