Invitation for Expression of Interest: Gender Analysis Study for transforming the African food system to sustainability (TAFS) Project
We are excited to announce an opportunity for consultants to contribute to an important initiative aimed at transforming the African food system towards sustainability. The Alliance for Food Sovereignty in Africa (AFSA), supported by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA), is initiating a Gender Analysis study for transforming the African food system to sustainability (TAFS) – “My Food is African” project. This project is designed to inspire African citizens to demand and consume healthy, culturally appropriate food, supported by favorable policies by 2026.
To this end, AFSA is seeking detailed proposals from qualified firms or individuals interested in conducting this pivotal Gender Analysis study. Your proposal should include:
- A letter (1-2 pages) expressing your interest in participating in this transformative project.
- A reflection (2-4 pages) detailing your technical understanding of the assignment, your proposed methodology, a timeline, and a budget outline.
- A general profile of your firm or individual expertise, including evidence of previous work and relevant CV(s).
Eligible consultants are encouraged to submit both technical and financial proposals to undertake this significant work. All documents should be emailed to afsa@afsafrica.org by 5:00 pm (East Africa Time) on Friday, March 29, 2024, with the subject line indicating ‘AFSA-TAFS Gender Analysis Study’.
Please ensure your proposal is comprehensive and aligns with the objectives of the “My Food is African” campaign. Applicants will be informed of the tender process results within 15 days following the application deadline.
For a detailed Scope of Work and more information about this project, please refer to the Terms of Reference (ToR) attached.
We look forward to your proposals and to potentially working together towards a sustainable and inclusive African food system.
