Notice Title

DFID 7562 Service Provider for Independent Evaluation of SITA Africa: Supporting Indian Trade and Investment for Africa - Contract

Notice Description

The fundamental objectives of the evaluation are: Estimate SITA's contribution to programme outcomes and impact (as opposed to 'proving' or establishing attribution. An informed judgement on the likelihood and extent of how programme outputs have contributed to programme outcome and impact is feasible. Learn lessons from DFID's first South-South aid for trade (AfT) and value-chain programme: finding out what works, for who, under what circumstances, why, and "so what"? And identify any unintended effects, both positive and negative.
