PALESTINE - GRANTS MANAGER (M/F) - JERUSALEM
Country: occupied Palestinian territory
Organization: Solidarités International
Closing date: 25 Dec 2025
Desired start date: 1-Jan-2026Duration of the mission: 6 monthsLocation: Jerusalem
SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL (SI) is an international humanitarian aid association which, since more than 40 years, has been providing assistance to populations affected by armed conflicts and natural disasters by meeting their basic needs for food, water and shelter. Particularly committed to the fight against diseases linked to unsafe water, the leading cause of death in the world, SI's interventions provide expertise in the field of access to drinking water, sanitation and hygiene promotion, but also in the essential area of food security and livelihoods. Present in 26 countries, the SI teams – 3200 people in total, made up of expatriates, national staff, permanent staff at HQ, and a few volunteers - intervene with professionalism and commitment while respecting cultural norms.
The mission
In response to the attacks of 7 October 2023, the Israeli army launched a massive offensive in the Gaza Strip, beginning with a campaign of air strikes followed by a series of ground offensives that successively hit all the enclave's governorates. The intensity of the fighting, repeated strikes and successive evacuation orders have forced more than 1.7 million people to move, sometimes several times, to sites less directly affected by the fighting. The first displacements towards the south of Gaza, and more particularly the governorate of Rafah where 1.7 million Palestinians were displaced in April 2024, were followed by the displacement of more than 1 million people towards the central part of the Gaza Strip when the offensive on Rafah was launched in May 2024.
Displaced people are living in schools, organised sites and informal sites where it is more difficult to organise assistance. The destruction by the fighting of vital infrastructure, such as health facilities, water and electricity supplies, schools and other public services, is having a major impact on the displaced and host populations.
SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL operates across the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, with a field base in Deir El Balah. The organization works to improve access to safe drinking water by rehabilitating or installing reverse osmosis units, distributing water via tankers and water points, and deploying mobile systems to pump water from existing wells. It also monitors water quality, provides hygiene kits to the most vulnerable households, promotes good hygiene and water management practices, and implements pilot activities in home gardening.
At the end of 2024, SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL strengthened its rapid response capacity by creating a specialized Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) team, which has already been deployed during new crises and has been extended to the West Bank.
The organization’s work relies on strong partnerships with local Palestinian organizations such as UFA and MA’AN. Its institutional and financial partners include CDCS, Choose Love, ECHO, Althémis, and OCHA.

migration, exil, droits et santé

Terms of Reference for consultancy services for the final evaluation of the Finance for Inclusive Growth in Somalia (FIG Somalia) programme
Country: Somalia
Organization: Africa Enterprise Challenge Fund
Closing date: 8 Dec 2025
1. About FIG Somalia
Finance for Inclusive Growth in Somalia (FIG –Somalia) is a pilot programme component under the European Union-funded Inclusive Local and Economic Development (ILED) programme in Somalia. The FIG programme is funded by the EU under the Trust Fund. The programme started the implementation in September 2020 and will run until December 2025. The programme is implemented by the African Enterprise Challenge Fund (AECF) in partnership with six Somali financial institutions (FIs): MicroDahab MFI, IBS Bank, Sombank, Amana MFI, Maal MFI, and Raas MFI.
The programme objective is to revitalise and expand the local economy with a focus on livelihood enhancement, job creation and broad-based inclusive growth for Somali women, youth, and producers1 through:
Designing and offering appropriate and sustainable financial products and services to clients through two Somali Financial Institutions (FI) and ensuring targeted clients are growing and becoming more bankable.
Catalyzing a sustainable increase in lending to economic actors in Somalia, youth, women, and producers.
Building the capacity of the partner financial institutions to increasingly provide appropriate financial services for a wider scope of customers living in urban centers, and rural and decentralized areas in Somalia.
Building the capacity of targeted end clients to profitably use the financing for business
The programme consisted of two phases and initially partnered with two financial institutions— MicroDahab MFI and IBS Bank. Each of these financial intermediaries received €1 million in returnable capital as a revolving fund and matched this amount with their own €1 million each.
In the second phase, the programme expanded its impact by collaborating with four additional financial institutions: Sombank, Maal MFI, Amana MFI, and Raas MFI. Each of these institutions received €350,000 in returnable loan funds (RLF) and matched that amount 1:1 with their own funds
for on-lending to the programme’s target clients, which include 40% women, 30% youth, and 30% producers.

5. Methodology
During this final evaluation, the selected evaluation firm is invited to assess the Programme and its different components according to the evaluation criteria and specific evaluation questions listed above. The methodology described in this section is indicative, and the applying evaluation teams are expected to adapt, elaborate and integrate the approach and propose adjustments needed to undertake the assignment. These can include additions to the evaluation design, approaches to be adopted, appropriate sampling strategy, data collection and analysis methods, and an evaluation framework. The proposals should also refer to methodological limitations and mitigation measures. At all times, evaluators are to adhere to the ‘principles for ensuring quality evaluations’ according to OECD/ DAC quality standards. Mixed data collection methods are recommended. The evaluation will be rolled out in three phases:
Inception phase: The evaluator(s) will review key Programme documents and engage with the AECF/ FIG team to finalize the evaluation objectives, questions, criteria and Against the above, the evaluator(s) will identify appropriate evidence that needs to be gathered and synthesized to fully inform the evaluation process, as well as sources of information, including key individuals to be interviewed. The output of this phase will be an inception report, which will include a methodological note and an evaluation matrix presenting how each evaluation question will be addressed, data sources and data collection methods that will be used to gather additional information needed and a set of criteria to rate the strength of the evidence collected. The inception report should not exceed 10 pages.
Data collection and analysis phase: The second phase will further assess the programme and collect information and evidence responding to the objectives and criteria set in this ToR and in alignment with the scope refined during the inception phase. The evaluation matrix should be the guiding tool in order to collect data through different methods relating to the evaluation questions. A mixed-method approach will be used to combine qualitative and quantitative data collection methods. At the end of this phase, it is expected that the evaluator(s) present their preliminary findings to the key audience for this evaluation.
Reporting and dissemination phase: The third phase will include reporting, validating and prioritizing findings and recommendations, and disseminating the results to AECF and its stakeholders. The evaluator(s) will submit a final evaluation report in Word and PDF. The final report should not exceed 25 pages and clearly and transparently demonstrate links between review questions, data collection, analysis, findings and conclusions. The conclusion and recommendations presented in the final report should be underpinned by a strong set of evidence and will be further explained during the final presentation.

If there is a discrepancy between the unit price and the total price, obtained in multiplying the unit price by quantity, the unit price will prevail. If there is a discrepancy between the words and figures, the amount in words shall prevail. If the bidder disagrees with such his bid will be rejected.
Proposal Evaluation Criteria
The lowest evaluated Financial Proposal (Fm) is given the maximum financial score (Sf) of 100.
The formula for determining the financial scores (Sf) of all other Proposals is calculated as follows:
Sf = 100 x Fm/ F, in which “Sf” is the financial score, “Fm” is the lowest price, and “F” the price of the proposal under consideration.
[or replace with another inversely proportional formula acceptable to the WUSC]
The weights given to the Technical (T) and Financial (P) Proposals are:
T = [70], and
P = _______[30]
Proposals are ranked according to their combined technical (St) and financial (Sf) scores using the weights (T = the weight given to the Technical Proposal; P = the weight given to the Financial Proposal; T + P = 1) as following: S = St x T% + Sf x P%.
Confidentiality
No bidder will contact WUSC on any matter related to his bid except for requests related to clarifications of the bid. Information concerning procurement process and evaluation of bids is confidential. Any clarification related to the selection process shall be done only in writing.
Any attempt by the bidder to influence improperly WUSC officials in the evaluation of the bid or Contract award decisions may result in the rejection of its bid, and may be subject to the application of prevailing WUSC’s debarment procedures.
Notification of Award
The Consultant with the Most Advantageous Proposal, which is the Proposal that achieves the highest combined technical and financial scores, will be notified of award of contract by WUSC in writing.
At the same time WUSC notifies the successful bidder, WUSC will notify all other unsuccessful bidders and provide a debrief where one is sought in writing within 5 days.
The notice of acceptance will be given by the successful bidder within 7 days of the notification of award.
