CONSULTANCY FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF CAPACITY BUILDING WORK PACKAGE UNDER DEMAND SIDE RESULTS BASED FINANCING (DS RBF)
PROJECT TENDER REFERENCE NO: 83467108
Name of Project: Energising Development (EnDev) Uganda
BACKGROUND
Energising Development (EnDev) is a strategic partnership of likeminded donors and partners to support access to modern energy in more than 20 countries around the globe. The driving force behind EnDev is the partnership of Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, and Switzerland; donors who are committed to accelerating energy access and socio-economic development.
In Uganda, EnDev is part of the GIZ Energy and Climate Programme and cooperates closely with the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development (MEMD), UNHCR and Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) to enable access to modern energy products to enterprises and social institutions including health centres and schools as well as to households in refugee settlements and hosting districts.
Currently, Uganda hosts more than 1.5 million refugees, mostly from South Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Burundi, Rwanda, and Somalia. Uganda is one of the top refugee hosting countries worldwide. Refugees live mostly in settlements along with rural host communities across 13 districts which are among the poorest and least developed in the country. Despite efforts from EnDev as well as related projects such as the GIZ Energy Solutions for Displacement Setting (ESDS) (through several supply and demand side interventions) and various other humanitarian and development partners, significant barriers to access to modern energy products and services remain. One of which is the existing affordability gap for solar PV and clean cooking technologies at the household level majorly hindering access for more constrained communities such as refugee communities, their host districts, and other vulnerable rural communities.
To address this issue, EnDev, with funding from the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs/Directorate General for International
Cooperation (DGIS), is implementing the Demand Side Results Based Financing (RBF) Project. The project aims to reach 23,000 households with solar PV technologies, 185,000 households with improved cookstoves, and 5,000 households with higher-tier cookstove technologies. The target households are refugees and residents of hosting districts in Adjumani, Bidibidi, Imvepi, Kiryandongo, Lobule, Palabek, Palorinya, Rhino Camp refugee settlements, including low-income rural communities of Amuru, Maracha, Nebbi, Nwoya, Moyo, Pakwach and Zombo districts. This will be achieved through a partnership with the Private Sector Foundation Uganda (PSFU), which, in coordination with EnDev, has selected participating companies to distribute and sell these products in the highlighted districts at discounted prices based on contractually predefined incentive structures. To ensure that only targeted households are considered under the project, the Kobo Toolbox is utilized to perform eligibility checks for each company sale.
To enhance sustainability and increase engagement among partner companies and beneficiaries,
EnDev aims to enhance the capacity of the selected target group in effectively communicating and understanding the promoted technology. To achieve this goal, GIZ EnDev is seeking the services of a qualified and experienced consultant to conduct capacity building activities, covering two main components:
• Communication of the project and related discounts of the companies, and
• Capacity building for behavioural change
The training sessions will be tailored to the interests of refugees, host community members, and selected representatives from the local leadership, energy kiosks members, opinion leaders among others. Focus of the sessions will be to understand the promoted technology.
