IED requires the services of an international consultant to build on IED’s Evaluation Knowledge Management (EKM) Strategic Plan, 2017-2022 and provide following inputs:

1. Stakeholder Assessment
The Consultant will assist IED in updating its 2016 Stakeholder Assessment to understand the needs and demands of its stakeholders. S/he will review the findings of the IED Perception Survey 2020, and conduct desk review and other analysis to update the 2016 stakeholder assessment.
