The objective is to assist the EU delegation to Mali, and the EDF National Authorising Officer (NAO) in the regular monitoring of all of its current and future projects financed by the European Union through its various financial instruments (EDF, UTF, LB, regional funds, etc.).
The activities to be carried out include: (1) field monitoring missions, (2) development of a remote monitoring system, (3) analysis of all monitoring data from different sources (own, communities, project manager, document review, etc.) in order to estimate the qualitative and quantitative implementation levels for operations, and (4) identification of corrective measures to improve project implementation.
The sectors concerned are those covered by all EU funded projects. These mainly involve: infrastructure (roads, water and sanitation), agriculture and food security, governance, justice and human rights, education, etc. However, the EU also finances projects in other sectors such as security and migration, etc.

Support will be provided to Ukrainian Vocational Education and Training (VET) providers to strengthen their capacity to participate in Erasmus+ programmes. All services are to be delivered remotely between June 2025 and May 2026, structured under two main work packages.
Work Package 1: International Engagement through Erasmus+
A total of 40 VET providers will be engaged, with 25 selected for in-depth support. A joint planning workshop will be conducted with the National Erasmus+ Office–Ukraine and GIZ to define the training programme. Initial online sessions will be held to introduce Erasmus+ opportunities, followed by targeted training for the selected providers on project development and application processes. Partnerships with institutions in EU Programme countries will be facilitated, and individual support will be provided throughout the proposal preparation and submission phases. At least 18 Erasmus+ project applications are expected. All sessions will be fully organized and documented, including logistical coordination and reporting.
Work Package 2: Handbook Development
A bilingual handbook (Ukrainian and English) will be created to guide VET providers in drafting Erasmus+ project proposals. The handbook will include step-by-step instructions, visual aids, and digital navigation features, ensuring accessibility across devices. Its content will be tested during the application phase, revised accordingly, and submitted for approval by GIZ and the National Erasmus+ Office–Ukraine.

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.

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 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.

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 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.
