Tenders Are Invited For External Evaluation

Tenders are invited for External Evaluation. Closing Date: Monday, 30. Jun 2025 Intervention Sector(s): Democracy & Civic rights, Human Rights & Protection Remuneration range: > 6000 (USD) Duration of Contract: 5 months Introduction/Background: Adyan, Foundation for diversity, solidarity and human dignity, works locally, regionally and internationally for pluralism, inclusive citizenship, community resilience, and spiritual solidarity, through homegrown solutions in education, media, policymaking, and intercultural and interreligious relations. Adyan is registered in Lebanon as a non-profit and nongovernmental organization (NGO), under registration number 1103 by a ministerial decree dated 18 September 2008. About the Digni Project: For many people living in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region, their right to FoRB (Freedom of Religion and Belief) is restricted and/or denied. FoRB restrictions include but are not limited to laws and policies restricting religious freedom; government favoritism of religious groups; government limits on religious activities and government harassment of religious groups; restrictions on religions; harassment by individuals and social groups; religious violence by organized groups; and inter-religious tension and violence. Over the period of three years, this project aims to positively influence perceptions of FoRB across the MENA region via the creation of a Regional FoRB Hub, Mapping Report, Charters by religious leaders/activists, and advocacy campaigns. This will lead, by December 2025 to increased action to promote and protect FoRB by the public, religious leaders, and civil society activists. The Regional FoRB Hub highlights the discrimination, restrictions and hostilities related to FoRB that many communities across the MENA face, while also highlighting all the advances being made regarding FoRB in the region. Via dissemination of information and the facilitation of public discourse, the Hub will foster increased support and civic activism in favor of respect for FoRB at the community, policy and legal levels. As well as being a repository of information, the Hub also creates and strengthen national and regional networks in support of FoRB, including journalists, lawyers and parliamentarians, who will use the Hub to increase their understanding of FoRB-related issues. At the same time, religious leaders/activists are being supported to jointly develop discourse and positions to promote and protect FoRB within their spheres of influence, and refute the most blatant violations to FoRB in their countries. This will empower them to engage in new ways with diverse communities. Tender Link : https://daleel-madani.org/civil-society-directory/adyan-foundation/calls/call-external-evaluation
