81295700-Consultancy to improve and develop Monitoring & Evaluation systems as well as capacities of the Governance and Civil Society Programme in Uganda and its partner organisations

Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH

The German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) has commissioned the Gesellschaft f?r Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH with the Programme Strengthening Governance and Civil Society (GCSP) which is being implemented in all regions of Uganda since January 2022 and until December 2024. The objective of GCSP is: Relevant state and non-state actors fulfil their respective roles in regard to accountability, implementation of principles of good governance and realisation of human rights better.
The programme works through three main components: 1) Strengthening Accountability (SAC), 2) Strengthening Human Rights (HR) and 3) Civil Society in Uganda Support Programme II (CUSP II).
SAC focuses on strengthening accountability, fighting corruption and making better use of public resources in Uganda. In order to achieve this, the programme works with and supports the Office of the Auditor General (OAG) and other accountability institutions such as the Inspectorate of Government (IG) and the Public Procurement and Disposal of Public Assets Authority (PPDA). SAC also cooperates with Civil Society Organisations (CSOs), mainly through the government partners, who are active in the field of transparency, accountability and anti-corruption (TAAC).
HR supports the National Planning Authority (NPA) in taking a human rights-based approach (HRBA) to national development planning. To this end, it supports consultations and sensitization around making sure that mainstreaming of the human rights-based approach is realised in the implementation of the Third National Development Plan. The component also supports the Uganda Human Rights Commission (UHRC) to fulfil its mandate, in particular when it comes to digital participation mechanisms and human rights awareness.
The Civil Society in Uganda Support Programme II (CUSP II) has three priority areas: a) a more conducive regulatory and operational environment for civil society organisations, (b) a more meaningful and structured participation of civil society in inclusive sub-national and national development processes (c) enhanced responsiveness, sustainability and resilience of CSOs. CUSP II is co-financed by the European Union (EU).
GCSP works with organised Ugandan civil society in its broadest definition which comprises "all non-state, not-for-profit structures, non-partisan and non-violent, through which people organise to pursue shared objectives and ideals, whether political, cultural, social or economic". This includes NGOs, community-based organizations (CBOs), trade unions, professional associations, women and youth associations and those representing marginalised groups, cooperatives, faith-based organisations (FBOs) as well as umbrella organisations and coalitions of CSOs. The programme puts a strong emphasis on supporting constructive dialogue between state and non-state actors in implementing the Third National Development Plan.
