>Dear colleagues,
>
>The Global Knowledge Partnership (GKP www.globalknowledge.org ) is trying
>to identify a consultant to work on the following Terms of Reference.
>Please help us by sending this message to anyone who may be interested to
>take on the consultancy. We would appreciate a response by 21 February.
>
>Mandate
>To identify potential strategic members from LAC for the Global Knowledge
>Partnership. A multilingual and non exclusive approach should be taken.
>The evaluation of organizations is to be in-line with the membership
>criteria formulated in GKP's Governance
>Formulation (see www.globalknowledge.org) and in view of joint activities
>that make best impact.
>
>As a multi-stakeholder Partnership (MSP), we are interested in
>organizations from all sectors, public, private, not for profit, academia
>and research institutions. For the private sector we would like to
>associate with organizations that have experiences in the MSP approach and
>who see value in making social investment by supporting ICT projects.
>Donors in the region are naturally important.
>
>For civil Society, GKP is interested in organizations that are networks
>with a strong national and regional partnership base. They should be
>institutionally well managed (with good practices of transparency,
>participation and accountability) and have sound practice in the area of
>ICT4D. Areas of interest include poverty reduction, gender, youth,
>financing, governance, media, indegenous and local knowledge and MSPs. It
>would be advantageous if these organizations have been recognized for
>outstanding work (through awards). A working knowledge of English by the
>management of these organizations would be useful, but is not a
pre-requisite.
>
>Questions to be answered by the consultant.
>What is your area of expertise in ICT4D? What research or publications
>have you done on the subject and in what region?
>What is your experience in mapping or profiling of ICT4D organizations?
>What is your knowledge regarding ICT4D activities and organizations in LAC?
>Is it possible to complete the research by end of March? Do you have
>suitable partners to help you achieve the mandate
>and if so, who are they?
>What is your consultancy fee to complete the task / how many days of work
>do you estimate this consultancy would need?
>
>Muchas gracias.
