    Project:- Commonwealth Youth Programme

    Project Brief

    The Commonwealth of Nations is an inter-governmental association of 53 members.


    Over sixty percent of the association’s population is under the age of thirty. More than
    one billion young women and men reflect the true potential of the Commonwealth. As
    affirmed in the Commonwealth Charter, the future success of the Commonwealth
    rests with the continued commitment and contributions of young people in promoting
    and sustaining the Commonwealth and its values and principles.
    The Secretariat’s Youth Division (YTH) is responsible for programming and
    delivering results in this area as outlined in the Strategic Plan 2013/14-2016/17. The
    Youth Programme of the Commonwealth Secretariat focuses on engaging and
    empowering young people through building capacity, advocating for their rights, and
    building partnerships. It also manages a special programme called ‘Sport for
    Development and Peace’. Commonwealth Youth Programme (CYP) works in
    partnership with governments, young people and other stakeholders.

    Context
    The Commonwealth Secretariat Strategic Plan for the period 2013/14 - 2016/17 was
    developed in the light of guidance received from the Heads, and after extensive
    consultations with member governments. Its results framework envisages a strategic
    outcome related to young people as ‘Youth more integrated and valued in political
    and development processes’. It is supported by two intermediate outcomes, one each
    in the area of youth empowerment and youth-led initiatives. Seven indicators have
    been established in the revised Strategic Plan to track the progress of work done in
    this area.

    Purpose and Scope of Assignment


    The Strategic Planning and Evaluation Division (SPED) is commissioning an
    independent review of the CYP programme. The purpose of this review is to assess
    the relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, impact and sustainability of the support
    provided by YTH in advancing CYP. It will also make recommendations from both
    the strategic and operational perspectives to optimise the utilisation of resources in
    achieving sustainable impact. Specifically, the review will:
     Evaluate the extent to which the Secretariat support was relevant to the
    priorities of member countries, and consistent with intermediate outcomes of
    the Strategic Plan;
     Assess the strategy and structure of the current programme.
     Assess the extent to which Commonwealth member states and stakeholders
    may have benefited from the CYP work, and the sustainable impact, if any,
    CYP has had on the lives of young people in member countries; and,
     Ensure there is identification of issues, challenges and lessons learned of the
    current programme.

    Client Requirement
    The client is looking for consultants to provide a report bid critically discussing how
    they would produce a study that achieves the following:

    An evaluation study providing a clear review of the support provided by YTH in


    advancing CYP in order to meet the aims and objectives identified.

    Project Timescale
    The duration of the project is 6 Months.

    Deliverable
    Consultants need to produce a 6,000 word report outlining the main objectives of the
    study and the methods that would be employed – following the structure provided. In
    addition, an ‘A3 Report’ summarising the approach to this project needs to be
    provided.

    Date of submission – 30th September 2016
