Background/context

In response to the displacement of refugees fleeing Ukraine, NRC has set up humanitarian operations for refugees arriving in the Republic of Moldova. NRC responds focusing on an integrated approach that combines our sectoral areas of expertise – education, livelihoods, protection, legal aid (ICLA), WASH and shelter working with the local partners. NRC’s Country Office in the Republic of Moldova has rich and varied set of partnerships across thematic areas which is also one of the largest and complex set of partnerships within NRC.

The partnership engagement builds on the program implementation modality and increasingly prioritizes comprehensive capacity strengthening to ensure sustainability for longer term viability. As one of the key strategic priorities, NRC is committed to invest in strengthening the capacity of its partners in Moldova on identified areas.

Purpose of the consultancy

The strategic development consultant will facilitate a directional analysis of NGOs in Partnership with NRC including a monitoring, and evaluation plan.

The purpose of this consultancy is to implement a strategic methodology and support and lead NGOs in Partnership with NRC including their staff and board in a participatory planning process, ensuring a sense of ownership, engaging meaningfully with the boundary partners, board of governance and key stakeholders. The substantive outcome is a two/three-year strategic plan.

Scope of work

The plan must address, amongst other things, organizational development, and resource mobilization initiatives and how to more effectively engage donor agencies, governments and communities more meaningfully in the realization of the Partner NGO’s mission and vision.
