Evaluación intermedia del proyecto EQUAL

WORLD VISION MEXICO
TERMS OF REFERENCE
INTERIM ASSESSMENT

BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION

In December 2019, World Vision was awarded a four-year grant from the Department of Labor (USDOL) to implement the Equal Access to Quality Jobs for Women and Girls in Agriculture (“EQUAL”) Project in Mexico. The EQUAL project in Mexico involves multiple stakeholders including government, private sector, and civil society organizations working together to reduce child labor, forced labor and other labor violation affecting women and adolescent girls in migrant agricultural communities, particularly in the coffee and sugarcane sectors in Veracruz and Oaxaca. The project works with government entities to utilize updated and improved tools to monitor and enforce laws related to child labor and agricultural work. It also collaborates with participating business partners to increase their capacity to reduce child labor and remediate unacceptable conditions of work in their workplaces and supply chains.

The project’s approach also involves raising awareness to change families’ frequently held beliefs that child labor is either necessary or beneficial, and to make them aware of their rights under the law. The project works to refer families to viable education alternatives for their children. It strives to reduce demand for child labor among its chief users, small private landowners, and communal landowners who supply larger companies.

World Vision Mexico will hire an independent third party to conduct the mid-term assessment of the EQUAL project. This assessment approach will be in accordance with DOL’s Interim Assessments Guidance Document, using the most rigorous methods applicable for qualitative performance assessment. The assessment will be conducted in an ethical manner and safeguard the dignity, rights, safety and privacy of participants. The consultant will be responsible for developing qualitative instruments, conducting interviews and focus groups with the project staff. Processing and supporting the analysis of collected qualitative data and writing the final report.

PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES OF THE ASSESSMENT
