Notice Title

Newton Fund Evaluation

Notice Description

http://ted.europa.eu/udl?uri=TED:NOTICE:174245-2015:TEXT:EN:HTML Please see link to above TED notice for details. The Newton Fund aims to promote the economic development and welfare of partner countries through strengthening their science and innovation capacity. It will do so by leveraging the UK's strength in this area to, amongst other things create higher-education partnerships, fund research into development topics and identify and take forward commercialisation and innovation opportunities that address local development issues in 15 developing countries. 75 000 000 GBP per year for five years will support these capacity building activities by 15 UK Delivery Partners: the Research Councils, Academies, British Council, Met Office and Innovate UK. It is managed by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS). Tenderers are invited to propose and develop methodologies that will capture the Newton Fund's on-going impact and delivery processes over five years. While drawing on monitoring data from Delivery Partners, BIS and Newton Fund country teams, successful applicants will conduct their own qualitative and quantitative data collection. The evaluation should also consider the delivery mechanisms and management processes of the Newton Fund. One final report is expected in 2019, with several interim reports throughout the life of the Fund. These will include a brief analysis in August 2015, and an analysis at the end of year two of the programme in March 2016. Each report should address the Fund's summative and formative impacts to date, its value for money, its delivery processes along with recommendations to improve the programme.
