Specific considerations

1. PURPOSE OF THIS CONSULTANCY

The direct motive for this procurement for consultancy services is to support the implementation of the SAF cluster Knowledge and Learning Framework (KLF) by reviewing available knowledge products and uploading them onto Oxfam’s knowledge and evidence database, outlining which learning questions have been responded to and the learning gaps that remain.

The database allows users to curate and store all their learning questions and the evidence generated/collected against them in one place. In addition, users can search for much needed information more easily, and curate resources to aid in meta-analysis and sensemaking relevant for decision making, programme efficiency, learning or communicating impact.

Ensuring that SAF cluster knowledge products and learning questions are uploaded onto the database will enable easy access across the Oxfam confederation to the evidence and learning that has been generated in the SAF cluster.

2. BACKGROUND AND CONTEXT

The SAF KLF outlines the research and evidence generation processes that contribute to impactful programming and thought leadership in the cluster while being aligned to the Global Knowledge and Learning Framework. Both the SAF and Global KLFs propose engagement with specific learning questions and intentionally generating and applying knowledge from the answers to enhance accountability, impact and social change efforts while developing a rich evidence base for Oxfam and partners’ contributions to change. One of the key platforms for mapping both the learning questions and evidence is the knowledge and evidence database developed under the leadership of Oxfam International’s Knowledge for Impact Team (KIT). It is on this backdrop that the SAF cluster is seeking a consultant to support the implementation of the SAF KLF, with an emphasis on uploading learning questions, knowledge and evidence resources onto the aforementioned database in a systematic approach. The Consultant will work closely with the SAF Cluster staff and KIT members to ensure all learning questions, evaluations, and other evidence products are uploaded onto the database in the right manner.

3. SCOPE OF WORK

The Consultant will review and upload the relevant learning questions and knowledge products onto the database and provide a mapping/summary analysis of which key learning questions have been responded to and which learning gaps still exist.

Before commencing the assignment, the Consultant will undergo orientation/training on the database to be provided by a member of the Knowledge for Impact Team (KIT). The Consultant will continue to work closely with members of the KIT, the Program Quality Lead for SAF as well as monitoring, evaluation and learning staff within the cluster level.

Specific tasks related to this scope of work are outlined as:

  1. Uploading Oxfam SAF learning questions into the knowledge and evidence database
  2. Uploading knowledge products (research, evaluations, case studies, etc.) onto the knowledge and evidence database
  3. Mapping the learning questions that have been responded to and the learning gaps that remain
