Terms of Reference (ToR) Background SNV Netherlands Development Organisation had started its journey in 1965 from Netherlands as not for profit volunteer organisation. SNV have built a long-term, local presence in countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America working in the sectors of WASH (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene), Agriculture and Renewable Energy through providing advisory services, facilitating knowledge development, networking, and carrying out advocacy at national and international levels. SNV mission is to make a lasting difference in the lives of millions of people living in poverty. For more information, please refer to our website: www.snv.org. WASH SDG programme works towards improved WASH services for all. Using an integrated approach, the initiative strives to ensure that water and sanitation related facilities and services are sustainable, climate resilient, gender sensitive and socially inclusive. It is a multi-country intervention implemented in 20 cities in Nepal, Zambia, Tanzania, Indonesia and Bangladesh. Through this, SNV is willing to provide technical support focusing on Sanitation and Hygiene to city corporation/municipalities, which is implemented at Jashore Paurashava, Benapole Paurashava and Zone 1 and Zone 4 of Gazipur City Corporation. The WASH SDG programme is built on three core strategic objectives: (1) increasing demand for improved WASH facilities and practices; (2) improving the quality of service provision; and (3) improving governance of the sector. Gender and social inclusion is an area of specific attention in each of the 3 strategic objectives as well as climate vulnerability and resilience. SNV aims to support local authorities (Jashore and Benapole Paurashava, and Gazipur City Corporation) to address service delivery challenges in Sanitation and hygiene, and advance the sector development as a whole, through strategic engagement with Government Agencies (sector Ministry, relevant Department and their service delivery channels at local level) and partnering with other experienced civil society and private sector organizations working in the sector. The programme would like to conduct Midterm review with a questionnaire used in the annual performance monitoring survey 2019 and provided by SNV. The data will be collected using AkvoFlow tool. We would like to procure the service from professional and reliable data Management Company who has proven track record for handling paperless surveys/studies with sufficient logistics including enumerators and tablets. The proposed study would be conducted in Jashore and Benapole Paurashava, and part of Gazipur City Corporation (Zone 1 and Zone 4) with a view to capturing 8 Impact Indicators in Households, Education Institutes and Health Care Facilities, along with two Qualitative Outcome indicators.
