• Description:
• Tenders are invited for Digital Monitoring & Evaluation and GIS, Support to the Somalia Country Management Unit (CMU). Closing Date: 4 Nov 2022 Type: Consultancy 1. ICT for Operational Effectiveness in FCV contexts and the GEMS Initiative Fragility, conflict, and violence (FCV) is a central development challenge. Global extreme poverty is increasingly concentrated in fragile and conflict-affected settings, and the global FCV landscape has deteriorated in recent years, with rising levels of conflict, violence and forced displacement. Addressing FCV is therefore critical to making progress towards the World Bank Group-s (WBG) Twin Goals of ending extreme poverty and boosting shared prosperity. In this context, in 2020 the WBG launched its first FCV Strategy to enhance its effectiveness to support countries in addressing the drivers and impacts of FCV and strengthening their resilience, especially for the most vulnerable populations. As part of the implementation of the FCV Strategy, the FCV Group is providing support to Country Management Units (CMUs) to address specific country-level FCV challenges. In the Somalia CMU, the FCV Group is providing strategic and analytical support, providing implementation and supervision support, and engaging with key partners on the FCV agenda. This is important to address the diverse fragility risks impacting the country, such as high levels of conflict, complex political economy dynamics, and compounding shocks related to climate change and food insecurity. In order to accountably implement development project in FCV contexts, it is critical to ‘get eyes on the ground where we cannot always have feet on the ground.- The Geo-Enabling methodology for Monitoring and Supervision (GEMS) has been developed in response to this demand, with the aim to provide project teams, client agencies, and partner organizations with timely access to invaluable field information from areas that cannot be regularly visited. Development Objective: The GEMS method enables project teams to use simple and low-cost open-source tools for in-field collection of structured digital data that automatically feeds into centralized digital Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) systems. The integrated data can include any kind of indicators, based on tailor-made forms; photos, audio, videos; time and date stamps; and GPS coordinates that allow for automated geo-mapping of the information. Using these tools and visualizing real-time results on dashboards allows operations to enhance the transparency and accuracy of M&E and increase the accountability of third-party monitoring (TPM). Moreover, the GEMS method provides WBG Global Practices (GPs) and Country Management Units (CMUs) with platforms for remote supervision, real-time risk and safeguards monitoring, as well as portfolio mapping for coordination across projects and partners.
