The "Global Programme Responsible Land Policy" is commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and co-funded by the European Union and runs from 2015 to 2026. The objective of the programme is to improve access to land for specific population groups, particularly women and marginalized groups in Benin, Burkina Faso, Côte d"Ivoire, Ethiopia, Laos and Madagascar (Niger and Cameroon in the near future). The focus is on three fields of action: - improving procedures to secure the land use or land tenure rights of the rural population, - strengthening participation of civil society in the formulation and implementation of land policies, and - improving the framework conditions for responsible agricultural and forest investments. Political and implementation partners include Ministries of Land or Agriculture and decentralized governmental agencies, non-governmental and civil society organizations, as well as the private sector and academic institutions. The programme further partners with international organizations, development partners and initiatives such as European Union, World Bank, Food and Agriculture Organization, International Fund for Agricultural Development, KfW, the International Land Coalition, the Stand-for-Her-Land campaign implemented by Landesa, and NAMATI, among others. Besides the implementation in partner countries, the "Global Programme Responsible Land Policy" also facilitates exchange of know-how and experiences between practitioners across countries as part of its knowledge management and capacity development strategy.

The overall objective (outcome) of the GIZ program "Employment promotion for women for the green transformation in Africa (E4D)" is that the employment and economic situation of women, especially in companies driving the green transformation, has improved. Key outputs are: 1. Labour market-oriented education and training, 2. transition to the labour market, 3. employment in value chains, 4. competitiveness of start-ups and MSMEs and 5. regional scaling of the approaches. E4D"s strategy is to establish partnerships with stakeholders from the public and private sector and civil society that will improve the employment opportunities of women in companies and value chains that are driving the economic transition to an ecologically sustainable and climate-friendly business model. Opportunity-driven and demand-oriented measures will be conducted with individual partner organisation and multi-actor partnerships in the implementation countries Kenya, Mozambique, Tanzania, Uganda and South Africa with the aim of achieving quantitative employment effects and qualitative, transformative results. The capacity development measures at micro and meso level of implementation- and employment-oriented country measures supplement reform-oriented advisory approaches of bilateral DC projects. E4D focuses on sectors that offer the greatest possible employment effects for women and in which companies, with their products, technologies and/or services, are actively shaping the transition of the economy to an ecologically sustainable, climate-friendly business model (1. Sustainable agriculture and agricultural processing, 2. Blue economy and aquaculture, 3. Renewable energy, 4. Circular economy and waste management, including biomass, 5. Eco-tourism) and on two further sectors in which companies are developing more environmentally-friendly or resource-saving business models (6. Transport/logistics, 7. Construction). Up to now, E4D incorporates a co-financing agreement with the EU Team Europe Initiative "Investing in Young Businesses in Africa" (TEI IYBA). This initiative supports the business ecosystem and promotes a supportive business and investment climate and business culture, in particular for companies managed by young people and women. It will be implemented by the E4D programme in Kenya and South Africa together with other European partners. The personnel concept of the overall E4D programme comprises one international long-term expert that has the responsibility for the commission of the project. In each of the five E4D implementation countries, 2 international and 4 national long-term experts will be responsible for developing and implementing the country measures in partnership with the private sector and other partner organisations (output 1-4). Four international long-term experts are part of the central steering unit of the regional project and are responsible for the financial and administrative processing and control as well as coordination of the commissioning parties of the multi-donor initiative. Furthermore, four international long-term experts will advise the project teams in the implementation countries on technical matters concerning standardised approaches for employment promotion, gender equality, the green transformation and regional scaling. Two further international long-term experts have overarching responsibility for communication, monitoring and evaluation. Three international and four national long-term experts are already deployed to implement the regional TEI IYBA. There will also be two national long-term experts responsible for implementing the TEI in Kenya and South Africa, and one international long-term expert who will be part of the centrally controlled TEI advisory team.

Since 2015, the Liptako-Gourma region comprising of the border triangle of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger, has increasingly become the epicenter of the escalating violence in the wider Sahel. In Burkina Faso alone, more than one million people have been displaced from their homes due to the complex compound of political grievances, competition over natural resources, organized crime, inter and intra-communal conflicts and a growing influence of jihadi ideology and de facto control over territory by non-state actors. Years of national and international efforts to curb the underlying factors such as poverty, historical marginalization of the peripheries, and the exacerbating effects of climate change, have been undermined and access to the most vulnerable populations for humanitarian actors have grown increasingly difficult. Additionally, national security actors have repeatedly accused humanitarian actors of supporting terrorists, while human rights organizations have blamed security actors of indiscriminate killing of civilians. With regard to the situation described above, the Federal Foreign Office (FFO) has strengthened its stabilization engagement in the Liptako-Gourma region in recent years through a variety of instruments. In particular, the stabilization facility by UNDP, launched in 2021, in close cooperation with the Liptako-Gourma Authority (LGA) is a promising tool for bringing together key players from important political, security and social fields on the ground. However, due to the tense security situation, the presence as well as on-site visits of FFO staff or staff of implementing organizations in project regions is often not possible. Therefore, the overall objective of the consultancy is to provide a monitoring system on socio economic situation as well as conflict trends with a geographical focus on (but not exclusively limited to) (1) Burkina Faso, Sahel region and (2) Niger, Tahoua and Tillaberi regions as well as border adjacent communities in Mali that allows FFO to: 1) Better manage/ monitor the implementation of its projects. 2) Identify relevant conflict dynamics and risks at an early stage in order to take appropriate action. The monitoring of dynamics relevant to foreign policy is not a standard TPM service that is limited, for example, to the review of aid deliveries or individual project activities. Rather, the focus is on monitoring factors to provide for nuanced answers on FFO questions. This means that TPM data, surveys, and reports must be focused on the needs and issues of the FFO, not on individual projects. This type of monitoring or reporting requires a strong expertise and ability to critically evaluate, analyze, and prepare data in a way that can be used for operational decision making in FFO project work.
