Fantastic Opportunity for Consultancy

Opportunity to provide Consultancy

Connections for Development (CfD) is a young but dynamic
national organisation, which was established in 2003 to provide a forum,
network and platform to facilitate the effective engagement of the UK's Black
and Minority Ethnic (BME) civil society with international development issues.

It was founded through a collaborative effort involving
BME civil society representatives and the government, through the Department
for International Development (DFID), out of the long standing need for
sustainable BME-led organisation to mobilise, network, inform, champion, and
provide an umbrella framework to facilitate their effective involvement and
participation in international development issues.

The vision is to create an inclusive and stakeholder
driven forum for mutual learning, sharing experiences and collaborative working
by BME civil society so as to promote their productive involvement and
participation in shaping development policy and delivering processes throughout
the developing world.

With the support of a rapidly expanding membership base
country-wide, and a growling collection of collaborating partners, CfD has met
a number of significant strategic targets.

We now are seeking a consultant to submit proposals
to facilitate and provide support and guidance to CfD in achieving their
current change management programme. The Tender specification is attached for
your information.

You will need to show and demonstrate knowledge and
experience of working with Diaspora communities and their civil organisations.
