Why CARE Nederland?

We are CARE Nederland, part of CARE, an international development organisation operating in more than 100 countries worldwide. Originating from US food aid to Europe after World War II, we have been committed to helping those who need it most for almost 80 years.

CARE Nederland, on behalf of the Women, Peace, and Security (WPS3) consortium, is seeking an experienced consultant or team of consultants to conduct the End-Term Evaluation (ETE) of its five-year program in Yemen. The program, funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, aims to strengthen women’s influence in peacebuilding and recovery processes in Yemen.
The ETE will assess program relevance, effectiveness, and impact (including intended and unintended outcomes), as well as the quality of partnerships and progress toward localization.

What will you be doing?

The ETE will focus on the complete program implementation period from January 2021 through December 2025 – in both Aden and Taiz governorates.
The purpose of this ETE is to assess the extent to which the program and its collaborative partnerships have contributed to creating a supportive environment for the full and meaningful inclusion of women in decision-making processes related to peacebuilding and recovery in Yemen during the period of 2021–2025. The evaluation will primarily focus accountability and learning, providing an opportunity to identify both the intended and unintended results and impacts of the program.
