TOR for Baseline Assessment (Partnership Harmonised Indicators)

The consultant’s core objective is to conduct the Partnership’s baseline assessment of the PHIs and deliver a comprehensive baseline assessment report. The baseline study provides a robust reference point against which progress on the PHIs can be measured. The consultant will work closely with the Power for Food Partnership country teams, especially the MEL Advisors.

1. Establish quantitative baseline values for the identified Partnership Harmonised Indicators (PHIs) through the collection and analysis of primary data using agreed qualitative collection methods.

2. Provide a narrative analysis for each indicator value, explaining its significance, context and relevance to theprogramme objectives. For example, where an indicator captures the number of knowledge products, the analysis should specify what those products are, who are the authors, include references or copies obtained from the organisations engaged by the consultant, and provide links to those that are publicly available or formally published, where applicable.

3. Review, validate, and where necessary refine the preliminary quantitative PHI indicator values generated through the initial desk review, which are primarily based on SNV’s current partnership knowledge, by triangulating them with field-generated evidence collected through Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), and update the values where necessary to ensure they accurately reflect the broader agro-energy ecosystem in Rwanda.
