1 1. Over View of Diakonia Work in Uganda Diakonia is a Christian development organization working together with local partners for sustainable change for the most vulnerable people of the world. Diakonia s vision is for each and every human being to live a dignified existence in a just and sustainable world. Diakonia s goal is to change the unfair political, economic and social structures that generate poverty, oppression and violence. Diakonia works with civil society organizations in Uganda with the aim of strengthening them to champion efforts geared towards transforming unjust structures that perpetuate poverty, oppression and violence. In the support given to partners, Diakonia s main focus is to strengthen the rights holder s organizations, qualitative and holistic participation in development processes in order to change authoritarian cultures and structures. The rights holders (women, men, girls and boys) are seen as the main agents of change, as individuals and actors in their own lives and development. The following themes are strategic intervention areas for Diakonia and partners in Uganda for the period : Gender Equality Human Rights and Democracy Social Economic Justice & sustainable Development Mainstreamed areas are HIV &AIDS, gender equality, and climate justice. Within this thematic framework Diakonia supports three main strategies for change: knowledge/skill, mobilization/organization and action/influence by rights holders organizations and duty bearers. In July 2015, Diakonia signed an agreement with Embassy of Sweden towards implementation of the third (3 rd ) Programme Phase with the overall objective of Enhancing Civic Activism for Human rights, gender Justice and social Accountability in Karamoja, Acholi, Lango, and Teso Regions of Uganda with strategic connections to national level issues by The 3 year programme mainly focuses on the following intervention areas: Human Rights and Democratic Governance: Poor & marginalized citizens (girls, boys, men & women) in North Eastern & Northern Uganda access justice and enjoy their fundamental human rights by Gender Equality: Poor and marginalised women and girls, men and boys are valued equally and have equal access to opportunities and resources for socio-cultural and economic wellbeing. Strengthening CSOs capacities: Partner organizations are progressively becoming democratic, accountable, relevant and effective in the delivery of rights based programmes. In this regard, the Uganda country programme will mainly address women and girl s rights and gender equality while supporting the protection, promotion and respect of all human rights. In light of this, Diakonia is commissioning a baseline survey to benchmark the programme results and targets that will be used to measure progress towards realization of programme results. A competent consultant is being sought to enable delivery of the assignment. 2. Programme Baseline (Outcomes & Outputs) a) Baseline Purpose The Programme baseline is aimed at generating information/data that will provide a basis upon which changes in the conditions of rights holders (women, men, girls and boys) will be measured during and after the programme implementation in line with the Programme Intervention Results targets. The Programme baseline 1 Page Diakonia Uganda Country Programme is supported with funding from

2 will act as a benchmark of the conditions or performance start point for measuring progress, outcomes and impact of the programme s interventions. In short, the baseline will serve as the basis for programme and projects monitoring, evaluation and control over time. b) Specific Objectives will include the following: To examine programme analysis in light of current contextual status so as to confirm or propose adjustments that should be made for the programme to deliver results. To provide relevant baseline values/information (benchmarks) for key programme progress makers as per the programme documents Determine progress markers/indicators targets for all the eight programme outcome areas and priority interventions. To assess the validity of the identified programme risks and challenges/difficulties and corresponding management strategies and generate alternative possible strategies that programme actors might employ to maximize realization of programme results targets. Assess the measurability & relevance of the proposed programme progress markers/indicators and recommend improvements if any for the realization of the proposed results. Recommend cost efficient and practical methods to be used to measure (monitor and evaluate) the programme progress markers/indicators in the long run. Key deliverables: The main outcome of this process is a comprehensive authentic evidence based programme baseline report which clearly reflects a descriptive (qualitative) and statistical (quantitative) status of programme set targets and progress markers/indicators in line with the desired ultimate outcome, intermediate and immediate outcomes and outputs of the programme. The report shall detail mechanisms to track and monitor programme progress markers/indicators. The report shall present recommendations that would be useful in improving the design of the partner projects contributing to the programme in accordance with the Programme Intervention Areas document. Using the rights based approach and principles, the consultant will establish the status in the following areas: a) Level of participation and influence of rights-holders in decision-making in both public and private spheres. b) Structural barriers within institutions (laws, policies, resources, actors) and discriminatory norms. Are there any inbuilt systems of complaints or ensuring accountability (of all duty bearers including CSOs) c) Levels of discrimination and human rights abuse experienced by rights-holders (women, men, girls and boys): The extent to which marginalised groups like People with Disabilities (PWD), sexual and minority groups, People Living with HIV & AIDS (PLWHA), specific youth groups, Gender Based Violence survivors are included in democratic governance processes. The existence of functional community mechanisms for protection of all human rights including women and children s rights. The level of reporting and handling of gender based human rights cases by government and other structures in the community. d) Rights-holders social empowerment, leadership capacity, networking, capacity to claim/be in dialogue with and hold duty-bearers to account for fulfilment of human rights. Level of women, girls, PWD, PLWHA, and minorities involvement in governance and development processes. Decision making on household matters such as sexual reproductive health and resource ownership and allocation. Proportion of women in functional leadership and decision spaces in the community structures. e) Rights-holders access and control of rights and entitlements, including access to legal processes/ remedies and economic opportunities (link to human rights) Existence of active groups of marginalized citizens advocating for the fulfilment of their human rights. 2 Page Diakonia Uganda Country Programme is supported with funding from

3 Other Issues: On a broader level, the information collected during the process shall also give special attention to the following issues: Level of community awareness about the reality of climate change and need for climate justice. What CS Actors, government and communities are doing in this regard? Level of faith actors involvement in community development (social accountability for improved service delivery, conflict management, and promotion of gender equality) specific actions being undertaken by faith actors to improve the conditions of rights holders. 3. Scope of Programme Baseline The programme baseline will be carried out in the programme geographical regions and will employ a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods.
