## Summary

The Equality and Human Rights Commission is seeking experienced contractors for the tender titled "EHRC 1718-59 Civil society capacity building and reporting: CEDAW". This project, classified under 'Equal opportunities consultancy services', focuses on women's human rights issues in the United Kingdom, specifically for both England and Wales. The open procurement process allows for proposals for two distinct lots, with a total contract value of £60,000, aimed at raising awareness of CEDAW and engaging stakeholders. The tender period concluded on 7th December 2017, and the contract period is set from 20th December 2017 to 31st August 2018.

This tender provides a significant opportunity for SMEs and voluntary community sector enterprises with expertise in human rights and social research services, particularly those familiar with both reserved and devolved human rights issues in England and Wales. Contractors who can demonstrate their experience in delivering human rights projects and collaborate effectively will be well positioned to compete. This is an excellent chance for organisations seeking to enhance their capacities in civil society engagement and contribute to important human rights work in the UK.

## Notice

We are looking for a suitably experienced contractor(s) with expert knowledge of women's human rights issues to engage with the UK's forthcoming review by the CEDAW Committee. The aims of this project are to: * raise stakeholders' awareness of CEDAW as an international human rights law instrument * engage with and collate NGOs' women's rights concerns * produce a joint civil society submission(s) to the Committee to inform their review of the UK. This request for tenders is in the form of two lots: * Lot 1: England civil society project * Lot 2: Wales civil society project We welcome proposals from potential contractors for one or both of these projects, and we also encourage proposals that adopt a partnership approach from organisations in one or two countries. If the Commission awards the lots separately, the Commission will expect the contractors for both lots to collaborate and produce one joint shadow report for submission to the Committee. The contractors will also be expected to coordinate closely for the Committee's Pre-Sessional Working Group. This does not preclude contractors from also submitting the national reports separately. There will be an emphasis on contractor(s) with experience of delivering human rights projects in England and/or Wales, and knowledge of both reserved and devolved human rights issues
