Driving the adoption of GBV M&E approaches: key offline questions The project employs a multi-phased, human-centred design approach that centres front-line GBV and M&E practitioners as end-users of M&E systems and reduces access and capability barriers by creating easy to use data collection and decision-making tools for frontline and local humanitarian agencies to assess their progress on implementing the MS (Minimum Standards).
First, we will work with agencies represented on the MS Task Team and local partners to develop a simple and easy-to-use M&E Framework for the Minimum Standards. At present, 4-6 indicators signal whether each MS has been achieved and is of adequate quality. The GBV AoR recognizes the need for a framework that goes beyond these few indicators and provides a cohesive framework that includes both output and outcome-level indicators related to each MS.
Second, we will pursue sense-making exercises with identified end users (local and national actors) to understand which aspects of the M&E Framework are useful, further adapt others, and identify opportunities to design new tools or adapt existing tools to accompany the framework. This will capture existing innovations at local levels and test which are scalable. We will prototype possible solutions that meet MS measurement needs while also addressing the barriers identified. We will utilize an iterative approach of user-focused design, testing, and revision to ensure that the developed prototypes are relevant and accessible for a variety of front line GBV and M&E practitioners. End-users from two humanitarian contexts will participate in design workshops and test prototypes of these new/adapted tools to iteratively identify which of the resulting tools are fit for purpose and under what conditions.  
At the end of this process, a package consisting of a simple and useable M&E Framework and field-tested tools/guidelines  (for select indicators) will be made available to the international community on both digital platform (through open-source data collection modalities) and paper (for low-connectivity settings) formats. The data collected through this system can be linked to indicator dashboards that will help staff interpret key data and make informed, evidence-based decisions. The hope is that this system could be used by humanitarian actors at various capacities (from small local NGOs with limited technical capacity to large international organizations) and would allow for humanitarian actors to add further complexity to their analysis and visualization as their capabilities and contexts change.  
This framework would serve as a complement to the MSs and be a reference point for GBV measurement in emergencies.

Catering services - CSO Human Rights Consultation 15 February 2024 Contract related to: Catering services - CSO Human Rights Consultation 15 February 2024 - Human rights and democracy are founding values of the EU. Protecting and promoting HR&amp;D is therefore a key priority of the EU¿s external action. It is also a precondition for sustainable development and for building more inclusive, open and resilient societies.Yet, recent data show that globally, most countries are far from having acceptable human rights and democracy track records. In this context, worsened by the COVID crisis, the EU re-affirmed its commitment to support human rights and democracy worldwide by adopting the `Action Plan on Human Rights and Democracy 2020-2024¿. The Action Plan identifies priorities and key actions, to ensure that the EU plays a greater role in promoting and defending human rights and democracy throughout its external action. The Regulation (EU) 2021/947 (Global Europe) establishes the legal basis for the human rights and democracy actions. Particularly, its annex III details the areas of intervention for human rights and democracy.The overall objective of the present action is to contribute to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms, democracy and the rule of law worldwide. The action will achieve this objective by supporting and strengthening civil society organisations (CSOs), democracy activists and human-rights defenders working on critical human rights and democracy issues in non-EU countries. It may also cover, where relevant, the promotion of international humanitarian law. Consequently, it will contribute to the 5 priorities of the Multiannual Indicative programme 2021-2027 as well as the specific priorities set out for the additional funding coming from the cushion.This action will mainly be implemented by EU Delegations in-country so as to: (i) better respond to the country-specific contexts; (ii) be as close as possible to the needs of the rights holders; and (iii) promote a sense of `ownership¿ of the action among local actors. The actions financed at country level will be in line with: (i) the EU action plan for human rights and democracy; (ii) EU guidelines on human rights; and (iii) the respective Human Rights and Democracy country strategies or priorities under the EU accession process. All actions will follow a human rights based approach putting people at the centre of actions and also focusing on promoting gender equality.
