*From 2014-2020, Lembaga Studi dan Advokasi Masyarakat (ELSAM) together
with Peace Brigades International (PBI)* implemented a program to support
human rights monitoring and advocacy work in conflict-prone areas of
Indonesia. The program was centered in a capacity-building course for human
rights defenders, the *Basic Course for Human Rights Defenders*, which
operated from 2015-2018. From 2018-2020, the program conducted a variety of
follow-up activities to consolidate the skills transferred during the Basic
Course for Human Rights Defenders. The program was supported by the Civil
Peace Service (CPS) program.
The project itself was planned based on extensive evaluations and needs
assessments of Papuan and national civil society during the period
2011-2014, and consistently conducted internal monitoring and evaluation
engaging both of the implementing organizations; as well as the
participants and other stakeholders. An external evaluation was conducted
in 2018 covering the period from 2015 to early 2018, when five of the six
cohorts had completed their training. A short external evaluation was also
conducted to cover specific advocacy and protection work conducted in 2019.
We are seeking an external evaluator to review the period of 2018-2020,
including drawing some conclusions about the overall effectiveness of the
capacity building program. This external evaluation will follow the
standard of Project Relevance-Effectiveness-Impact-Sustainability,
including an examination of project management; M&E tools in place; and
lessons learned for future initiatives.
We are interested in bids from qualified evaluators working as individuals
or in small teams, with a particular preference for those located in
Jakarta and/or Jayapura. The combined qualities of the evaluator team
should include:
· 5 years experience in capacity building projects
· Significant experience in human rights and field research
· Understanding of the civil society and human rights situation in

· Excellent written and verbal communication skills
· Experience in producing high quality written reports
