The International Center for Transitional Justice

 (www.ictj.org) seeks to evaluate its program in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), under the time frame of June 2008 to the present.

This is a style of formative evaluation in which the evaluator brings evaluative thinking into the process of design and intentional change. The evaluators will thus not only deliver rigorous, credible recommendations, but also concretely aid the DRC team’s production of a new framework for its DRC work.

The evaluation should take place from June 15, 2010 to September 15, 2010, with a budget of no more than $50,000.

Please see the terms of reference attached for further information.
