Project Objectives

The integrated emergency drought response project aims to realize the following objectives:

Objective 1: To provide high impact nutrition assistance through MAM and MIYCN-E interventions integrated within County health systems and other sector areas.

Objective 2: To reduce the risk of WASH-related diseases, with a focus on children U5 and PLWs receiving health and nutrition services at outreach sites, by increasing access to safe drinking water and sanitation and promoting safe hygiene practices

Objective 3: To address the immediate food needs of the most vulnerable beneficiaries through the provision of Unconditional Cash

Transfers (UCTs) for food assistance to improve the nutritional status of targeted beneficiaries. individuals

Objective 4: To protect and enhance the food security, livelihoods, and nutritional outcomes through animal health services.

The expected outcomes of this project are:

Nutrition: Children under five years and pregnant, breastfeeding women are well nourished and protected from all forms of malnutrition and County systems are strengthened for improved service quality.

Water, Sanitation & Hygiene (WASH): There is improved access to safe drinking water, hygiene, and sanitation services, in health and nutrition facilities for families with undernourished children and communities with high prevalence of global acute malnutrition (GAM).

Food Assistance: Food insecure households with malnourished children or children at risk of malnutrition are provided with sufficient resources to meet their basic needs, including the ability to purchase adequate, nutritious and diverse food within households

Agriculture: Communities that rely on pastoralism are provided with resources, including animal health services, to protect their core breeding livestock, preserve their assets, and safeguard their income sources during emergencies.

Protection-That all interventions across the sectors observe centrality of protection; by adopting the principles of safety & do no harm, respect and dignity, non- discrimination, inclusion and meaningful access of services by all regardless of age, sex and disability status amongst other diversities; client centeredness while prioritizing the most at risk clients for care and services. For children the best interest of the child and survivors of violence receive safe immediate and follow up support.

Target Group

Through this action, the IRC has reached a total of 47,424 beneficiaries in the 3 sub counties in Turkana County as highlighted below:

The nutrition sector served as the entry point for this project, targeting 8,248 direct beneficiaries, i.e., 6,968 children under five and 1,280 pregnant and Breastfeeding women (PBWs) through outreach efforts. To date, the project has reached 18,970 individuals (3,669 PBWs and 15,301 children under five—7,957 males and 7,344 females). This notable achievement is attributed to county-wide vitamin A supplementation efforts and comprehensive mass screening

A total of 47,424 individuals (22,764 males and 24,660 females) have been reached with WASH interventions. These interventions were based on the 8,248 individuals initially targeted due to malnutrition and reached at the outreach sites as well as through household follow-ups by 142 Community Health Promoters (CHPs) across Loima, Turkana South, and Turkana Central Sub-counties.

Food assistance has so far reached 18,594 individuals (9,209 Males and 9,385 females), while 4,000 individuals (2,080 males and 1,920 females) so far have benefited from the agriculture (livestock) component implemented by TUPADO.

To date the program has reached a total of 47,424 clients out of 27,872 clients targeted by the project in Loima, Turkana South and Turkana Central Sub Counties.

Of all the clients reached by various sectors and interventions across the three sub counties, 47,424 individuals received additional protection services which ranged from information-services that empowered them to make informed decisions including access to the available services; screening of the most vulnerable clients for protection risks and concerns plus client centred targeted assistance to address the risks identified, prevent further harm and address service access barriers.

Computation of the total beneficiary numbers minimizes double counting of the beneficiaries that will be reached through different interventions.

Endline Survey Consultancy

The survey is a summative study that seeks to measure the extent to which the project produced its intended outcomes. The survey should therefore adopt both qualitative and quantitative methodologies that would measure the outcome indicators that were measured at baseline and concisely articulate the project’s progress. It analyses the post-project situation using methodologies that provide results for comparison against the baseline evaluation conducted at the start of the project.

Rationale

The endline survey will provide in-depth information on the main target groups in the project locations. This information will be used to gauge the project’s success, identify areas that may need improvements on, and guide the next phase implementation to ensure the project has maximum impact on the target groups. The survey report will be a vital component of the project Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability and Learning (MEAL) system and will inform the results-based management approach of the next phase of the project

Survey Objectives

To provide endline data that will guide project planning, implementation, monitoring, and reporting on the follow-on integrated emergency drought response in accordance with the project outcomes. Provide endline data for all current project interventions, including the outputs and outcome indicators and endline data for the follow-on phase to facilitate tracking of project performance; and Provide comprehensive recommendations on high impact and sustainable design and implementation of project.

Scope of Work

In consultation with the Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability, and Learning (MEAL) team at IRC, and based on the available donor guidance, the consultant will be expected to carry out the following tasks:

Participate in briefing and consultation meetings to discuss the assignment and agree on the design and implementation plan for the Endline survey. Provide a short description of the methodology that will be used to conduct the Endline assessment.

This should explain the overall approach, such as using a mixed-methods approach that combines both secondary and primary data collection. It should also explain the context of the target intervention areas and highlight the planned project activities. Describe the secondary data sources that will be reviewed as part of the Endline assessment.

These may include project reports, government documents, and other relevant literature.

The consultant should also explain how this information will be collected and analyzed, for example through literature review, content analysis, or comparing information from different sources.

Explain the primary data collection methods that will be used to gather informa
