Job description

Introduction

Search for Common Ground is seeking a consultant or team of consultants who can evaluate and create a study about the contribution of a project about Insider Mediation implemented by a consortium with Berghof and IPLG in Zimbabwe, Interpeace and CENAP in Burundi and SFCG in Niger. The evaluation will use a mixed methodology and data collection tools and will aim to assess the impact of the project, lessons learned, and key recommendations. In addition to the project evaluation, the consultant will prepare a policy paper which draws on the findings of the evaluation and consolidates data, lessons learned, best practices, case studies and recommendations on a wide array of mediation sub-themes in order to inform other EU mediation efforts in Africa and the rest of the world. The consultant's teams should have experience in drawing from lessons learned across countries and across organisations to consolidate a detailed analysis taking into account contextual challenges and opportunities.

The Project

Search for Common Ground (Search), Berghof Foundation (Berghof), Interpeace, CENAP and Africa University are implementing a 24-month project with the overall objective to enhance the effectiveness, legitimacy, and utilisation of insider mediation as a mechanism for preventing and transforming violent conflict at the local, national, and international levels in Burundi, Niger, and Zimbabwe. This project is building off of a previous “phase 1” project implemented by the same consortium in the same countries between 2020-2022. The consortium has combined efforts to respond to ongoing and emerging conflicts in the three target countries by supporting insider mediation.
