The objective of the monitoring and communication Assignment is to support the Danish Embassy in Addis Ababa in
(a) establishing and facilitating a functioning monitoring and risk management system for the Country Programme and other development engagements that will help improve programme effectiveness, facilitate learning and ensure informed decisionmaking by the Embassy and its partners, and maximise transparency and accountability regarding the development of the programme;
(b) communicating to both the Ethiopian and Danish general public and certain specific target groups relevant achievements and results obtained by the Country Programme and other partnerships in the Embassy’s country portfolio.

This evaluation has two overarching objectives. Firstly, it aims to provide an independent and comprehensive assessment of the performance and strategic relevance of the EU’s partnership with the Republic of Guinea. Secondly, it seeks to identify key lessons and produce forward-looking recommendations to inform responsible decision-makers – particularly within the European External Action Service and the Directorate-General for International Partnerships – on how to enhance the quality, coherence, and impact of the EU’s current and future strategies, programming, and actions in Guinea.

The evaluation of the Danish Energy Partnership Programmes (DEPP) assesses over a decade of Denmark’s government-to-government cooperation on green energy transition. Covering 2012–2024, it examines partnerships in countries such as China, India, South Africa, Vietnam, and Mexico. The study reviews DEPP’s contributions to renewable energy integration, energy efficiency, long-term planning, and capacity strengthening, while identifying lessons for future programming. Applying OECD-DAC criteria, the evaluation aims to document results, enhance accountability, and generate actionable recommendations to inform Denmark’s continued role as a trusted partner in advancing global climate and energy goals.

The evaluation will assess the African Development Bank’s Regional Integration Strategy for Southern Africa (SA-RISP) 2020–2026, covering implementation from 2020 to 2024. It will review the Bank’s sovereign and non-sovereign lending operations alongside non-lending activities such as policy dialogue, analytical work, and technical assistance. The study will examine the strategy’s relevance, design, and coherence with regional and continental frameworks (SADC, COMESA, AfCFTA), as well as its effectiveness, efficiency, impact, and sustainability. It will also analyse the institutional, operational, and policy factors that enabled or hindered results, and draw lessons and recommendations to inform the design of the next SA-RISP.

The EU Cohesion Policy is a key investment strategy aimed at reducing regional disparities and fostering smart, sustainable, and inclusive growth across the EU. It operates through national, regional, and Interreg cooperation programmes to support infrastructure, the green transition, connectivity, and social inclusion in the EU Member States, while preparing candidate countries for EU membership by building administrative capacity through Interreg and tailored training programmes.

The Third-Party Monitoring (TPM) for WFP aims to assess program implementation, ensure data quality, and monitor market functionality in remote areas of Somalia. TPM providers will conduct monitoring and surveys under the guidance of WFP’s PMLE, Supply Chain, and Field Office Heads.
TPM staff, working full-time on WFP operations, will report to assigned field offices and provide the necessary personnel for effective monitoring. They must submit reports in English as per WFP guidelines, including:

• Monthly monitoring reports with checklists uploaded within 48 hours.
• Qualitative process monitoring reports based on field visits.
• Weekly progress updates on visits, delays, and challenges.

The regional EU4Environment programme aims at helping the EU’s Eastern partner countries (EaP) preserve their natural capital and increase people's well-being. The objective of this assignment is to provide technical advisory support to the Government of Ukraine, to the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources (MEPNR) in particular, to advance the establishment of the Emerald Network in the country.

The overall objective of the project is to promote the EU as a strong partner of Pakistan in its efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a focus on socio-economic development, good governance, human rights, rule of law and sustainable management of resources.

The Changing Lives Transformation Fund (CLTF) of the World Food Programme (WFP) provides selected WFP Country Offices (COs) with funding to better support governments to design and implement policies and programmes that improve the lives of the most vulnerable people. The CLTF has three thematic windows: (1) Transition, (2) Systems strengthening, (3) Climate adaptation.
At the level of the global portfolio, the contracted team of researchers designed an impact measurement framework and assessed the feasibility of independent impact evaluations in all COs selected by the CLTF. The team provided specific technical assistance for impact measurement to five COs (Chad, Kenya, Bangladesh, Iraq and Peru), in the form of research design workshops, country-specific concept notes for impact measurement, and in-country support for baseline data collection and analysis.
