RCN Justice et Démocratie Consultant for Final Evaluation Job Vacancy in Rwanda

Final Evaluation of the programme:
The programme entitled “Beyond raising awareness: shifting the social power
balance to enable women to access land in Rwanda” is an FGE-supported Implementation
programme being undertaken in Rwanda. It commenced on 1 December 2010 and is
scheduled for completion on 30 June 2014. Its overall budget is USD
1.602.812,21.

This programme aims to empower rural women
economically and politically in 15 districts of Rwanda in order to exercise and
secure their land rights as guaranteed by the Inheritance Law of 1999, the Land
Law of 2005, the GBV Law of 2009 and international law ratified by the state of
Rwanda.

The programme is being implemented by RCN Justice
& Démocratie, as Lead Organization, and Haguruka, as Co-Lead Organization,
in close cooperation with, among others, implementing partners AVEGA, RRP+,
Association Nzambazamariya Veneranda and Réseau des Femmes (members of
Pro-Femmes Twese Hamwe) and institutional partners Ministry of Justice and
National Women’s Council (NWC). FGE was established as a bold investment in
women’s rights, testing a more focused and better-resourced modality for
catalyzing and sustaining gender equality and efforts. Its founding Programme
Document sets forth its mandate to track, assess, and widely share the lessons
learned from this pioneering grant programme and to contribute to global
know-how in the field of gender equality. Final Evaluations of programmes are a
vital piece of this mandate.

The evaluation will assess to what extent the
entire programme (2010-2014):

has contributed to solve the needs and
problems identified in the design phase;
was efficiently implemented and delivered
quality outputs and outcomes, against what was originally planned or
subsequently officially revised;
has attained development results to the
targeted population, beneficiaries, participants – whether individuals,
communities, institutions, etc.-, therefore improving economic empowerment
of women in Rwanda. »
