National Consultant for External Evaluation Project on Empowerment and Right Access of Migrant Women Workers

National consultant for an external evaluation project on empowerment and right access of migrant women workers for the betterment of their living and working conditions

Since 2002, BATIK International has been present in Vietnam and has developed projects in the North, in partnership with stakeholders from the civil society, the public and private sectors to reinforce their capacities and to foster the socio-economic integration of vulnerable people. Since 2014, BATIK International’s main project is called Phu Nu (which means women in Vietnamese), with the objective to improve the living and working conditions of Vietnamese migrant women workers in two industrial areas in Vinh Phuc (Nam Sach industrial zone) and Hai Duong (Khai Quang industrial zone), provinces which are located in the outskirts of Hanoi.

The work is realised jointly by several organisations: GRET (Groupe de Recherche et d’Echange Technologique), CDI (Centre for Development and Integration) and VGCL (Vietnamese General Confederation of Labor) at the provincial level in Vinh Phuc and Hai Duong, as well as VWU (Vietnamese Women’s Union) in Vinh Phuc. The Phu Nu project is based on the action of various stakeholders and their implication on issues identified by migrant women workers in the industrial areas. The best way to durably and positively impact the lives of women workers is to initiate multi-stakeholders’ dialogue with the relevant stakeholders to bargain for concrete results.

In this context, the project team is seeking for one national consultant to provide an external assessment on the Phu Nu project on the following topic: the measurement of the effect and/or impacts of the project with a specific focus on the multi-stakeholders’ dynamic on the sustainable betterment of the socio-economic conditions of women and on the sustainability of women leaders’ groups. The applicants can find more details in the ToR.
