FHI 360 RFP: Baseline Data Collection for MADANI project

Request for Proposal: BASELINE DATA COLLECTION FOR MADANI PROJECT


MADANI Civil Society Support Initiative is a five-year USAID-funded project implemented by FHI 360, a nonprofit human development organization dedicated to improving lives in lasting ways by advancing integrated, locally-driven solutions. MADANI aims to strengthen local government accountability and communal tolerance in Indonesia by improving and sustaining local civil society’s capacity, legitimacy, and sustainability in 32 districts in the six provinces of West Java, Central Java, East Java, West Kalimantan, South Sulawesi and Banten, to be scaled up to 64 districts by the end of the project.
The purpose of a baseline data collection  is to provide updated information before the project begins on key conditions which will be used as basis to monitor and assess an activity's progress and effectiveness during implementation and after the project is completed. Specifically, this baseline data collection  will provide MADANI with data on initial capacity, legitimacy and sustainability of the local CSOs as stated in the Monitoring and Evaluation Plan, as well as assumptions and risks identified during the project design that may affect the achievement of MADANI’s objectives.
