Consultancy Services: Training on Monitoring and Evaluation

The ECOWAS Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (ECREEE) is a specialized agency of the ECOWAS Commission responsible for the development and promotion of renewable energy and energy efficiency. The objectives of the agency include the following: a) coordination of projects and programs relating to the promotion and development of renewable energy resources, the increase of energy efficiency to improve access to modern energy services and energy security in the Member States; b) sensitization and capacity building in the region on renewable energy and energy efficiency; c) policy harmonization and quality assurance of renewable energy and energy efficiency services; d) energy research and technology transfer; and e) program development and resource mobilization.

Not only has ECREEE become a center of excellence for renewable energy and energy efficiency in the ECOWAS region but also, it is a reference for other economic blocks in Africa to set up similar agencies. The Centre is currently part of a Global Network of Regional Sustainable Energy Centers (GN-SEC), an innovative south-south multi-stakeholder partnership established by the United Nations Development Organization (UNIDO) to accelerate the energy and climate transformation in developing countries.

The ECOWAS M&E Policy, adopted by the Heads of State and Government in January 2021, states that “effective implementation of this policy demands a robust, consistent, progressive, capacity building of monitoring and evaluation stakeholders who will handle these functions across ECOWAS Institutions and Specialized Agencies”. It recognizes the importance of “training conducted for all stakeholders on monitoring and evaluation.  Special emphasis shall be placed on training in quality data management and utilization to deepen the application of monitoring and evaluation in the implementation of ECOWAS programmes”.

In view of this, ECREEE is seeking to recruit a training institution or firm to provide services related to the Training of Technical Staff of the ECOWAS Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (ECREEE) in Monitoring and Evaluation of Programs and Projects in line with the Terms of Reference (ToR) attached.
