Call for Roster: Civil Society Organisations in the Field of Rule of Law, Justice, and Security
Date:
The Joint UNDP/UN Women/UNICEF Programme "Sawasya II: Promoting the Rule of law in Palestine (2018-2023)" is soliciting expressions of interest from experienced civil society organisations(CSOs) in the field of rule of law, human rights, gender equality and justice for children for the implementation of the multi-year programme. Only those organizations which meet all pre-qualification criteria will be part of the roster and thus become eligible to be considered for a partnership arrangement for the implementation of specific outputs during the programme implementation cycle. However, admission to the Civil Society Roster does not guarantee that a partnership with Sawasya II will be established.
Instructions to Applicants
SAWASYA II will carry out a selection process consisting of multiple stages to identify the most relevant CSOs for partnership under this initiative. This process of applying to join the roster is referred to as the ‘Pre-Qualification Process’.
The purpose of the pre-qualification process is two-fold:
- To determine whether interested CSOs meet Sawasya II mandatory criteria for partnership under this Programme (see further section 6)
- To assess the capacity levels of interested CSOs in order to determine appropriate levels of financial and capacity building support (see further section 6)
CSOs will be assessed based on the documents and information they provide during this process. The applications of interested organisations may be further verified through visits, reference checks and interviews with staff, board members and/or beneficiaries.
