To guide the project implementation and accountability, EF would like to develop a light MEAL system.This system aims for continuous improvement in the quality, regularity, and accuracy of data collection, processing, and analysis, in order to refine the course of action in an iterative, qualitative, and cost-effective way.
Purpose of the assignment
EF is recruiting a MEAL Expert to support the set-up and implementation of an appropriate MEAL system to enable the systematic and effective collection, analysis and use the information collected throughout the various phases of the project.
Under the supervision of the Project Manager, based in Bangkok, the MEAL Expert will work with the project team, the EF P2S MEAL Coordinator, and partners to develop and promote the use of, and implement the MEAL system to ensure that:
i.
Data on project activities are collected in a systematic and disaggregated way, consolidated, analyzed, and shared to support project management monitoring, evaluation, as well as to increase project's performance.
ii.
Mechanisms for upwards (donors) and downwards (beneficiaries) accountability are in place.
iii.
Evidence-based data is available to measure the outcomes of the program and the reach of the targeted results.
iv.
Learning from the project is captured and is used and shared to improve ongoing & future activities and projects.
v. The periodic agency-level MEAL exercises are completed in a timely fashion.




The MEAL expert will accomplish this through the design and implementation of a MEAL system (and its tools), and by promoting and fostering a culture of shared learning and accountability within the project ecosystem (including partner countries).
Main activities
The MEAL expert will conduct the following activities throughout the assignment:
1. Support the development of the MEAL plan (Expertise France format) in order to easily consolidate and manage MEAL data;
2. Create relevant and efficient data collecting tools that can be used during the project's activity (including feedback forms allowing for the collection and analysis of qualitative data);
3. Train the project team on the MEAL tools and processes put in place;
4. Produce a regular review (model to be defined) of the project through the following methodology:
ØInterview of key actors (to be defined)
ØSurveys disseminated to partner countries and for each activities
ØEvents feedback forms
ØData analysis
ØDeliverable drafting
5. Advises and support the Team leader on the progress of the project, the status of recommendations generated by the mid-term review and other MEAL exercises;
6. Fill in PSYS, THEMA and other relevant reports;
7. Support the development of specific TOR for the mid-term and final review of the project, participates to the selection of the teams and monitor the implementation of the evaluations;
8. Support the process leading to a Final Capitalization exercise that will conclude the MEAL process at the end of the project.
