Request for Proposals: Mid-Term Performance Evaluation for the Helping Survivors Heal Activity

The Center for Victims of Torture (CVT) is a U.S.-based non-governmental organization dedicated to creating a world without torture. Since our founding in 1985, we have evolved to provide culturally competent and interdisciplinary interventions to survivors of torture and trauma. We have served tens of thousands through trauma-focused services, enhancing the skills and resilience of human rights defenders while facilitating justice for survivors.

As part of our ongoing commitment to quality and accountability, CVT is seeking proposals from qualified evaluation consultants to conduct a Mid-Term Performance Evaluation (MTPE) for the Helping Survivors Heal (HSH) Activity. Funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), this global capacity development program runs from October 1, 2021, to September 30, 2026, with a total budget of $17 million. The HSH Activity aims to enhance access to evidence-informed Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) services for survivors of torture through organizational capacity development and subgrants to twelve partner organizations worldwide.

The MTPE will focus on evaluating the performance of the HSH Activity to date, assessing progress towards intended outcomes, and offering recommendations for optimizing project management and support. We aim to understand how well the HSH supports partner organizations' capacity development needs and the efficiency of the implementation processes. The evaluation will commence in November 2024 and conclude by February 2025, requiring approximately 40 working days.

Interested consultants are invited to submit their proposals, which should include a technical proposal and a financial proposal, as outlined in the attached detailed Statement of Work (SoW). The technical proposal should contain a cover letter, CV(s), a description of the proposed methodology, a work plan and timeline, and should not include pricing information. The financial proposal should provide a clear breakdown of fees and expenses in U.S. Dollars.

We look forward to receiving your proposals and appreciate your interest in contributing to the important work of the HSH Activity.
