Lot 3: Request for Proposal for Development of EPD Sustainability Strategy;
EPD intends to develop a Sustainability plan- a document, that will describe how EPD projects will be sustained in the long term. This document will spell out how our projects will survive in the long term.
It will give EPD and the donors a reassurance that the grants will be well spent and will have a long-lasting impact, even once the support runs out. We believe this sustainability plan is also important because donors would like to fund projects that have the potential to survive and thrive in the long term.
At EPD, we believe that while it is important to know how EPD projects will be financed in the long term, there are other parts of sustainability that are also very important. These include membership sustainability, organisational sustainability, stakeholder’s sustainability, community sustainability and environmental sustainability.
EPD also believes that this sustainability plan is important to funders and donors because it will add to assure the funders and instil convidence in them that EPD thinks and plans into the future and to facilitate them in justifying their decisions to fund EPD projects to their funder boards.
EPD’s Sustainability strategy will be built on key principles which shall include Assumptions; Predictions; Descriptive; Consistence; Reliability; Long-time Partnership and Rooted in the EPD community.
We are therefore requesting for both technical and financial proposals from competent firms and or individuals to develop a thoughough Sustainable strategy for EPD.
Terms of reference for this project can be obtained on request to the email address; info@epdrwanda.com; response to requests will be given within 24 hours from time they were logged in.
Proposals for each Lot must be submitted on or before deadline of Monday, September 4th, 2020.
