## Summary

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) has completed the procurement process for the project titled "EHRC 2021-04 Civil society capacity building and reporting: CRC," aimed at empowering civil society organisations to engage with the UK's forthcoming UN review on children's rights. The procurement method used was an open procedure, with the tender period concluding on 23 June 2020. The contract, valued at £47,450, spans from 6 July 2020 to 31 December 2020, covering services indicated under the CPV classification for equal opportunities consultancy services, specifically for England and Wales.

This tender presents significant opportunities for organisations specialising in human rights and children's rights, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Businesses with experience in social research or working with civil society in the context of human rights will find themselves well-suited to compete for this contract. The project encourages collaborative proposals and aims to enhance the capacity of civil society to effectively voice their concerns during the UN's review process, thus fostering growth and new partnerships within this vital sector.

## Notice

We are looking for a suitably experienced contractor(s) with expert knowledge of children's rights issues to engage with the UK's forthcoming review by the UN. The aims of this project are to empower and support civil society to hold government to account for its human rights obligations. We seek to use the UK's upcoming review under the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) to improve CSOs knowledge of the international human rights framework, ensure they are easily able to share evidence of their concerns and coordinate their efforts to effectively speak with one voice through a joint independent submission to the CRC Committee. 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. If the Commission awards the lots separately, the Commission will expect the contractors for both lots to collaborate where appropriate. 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.
