ACDI/VOCA has received financing from the World Bank toward the cost of the Consultative Service Delivery Program (CSDP) II, and intends to apply part of the proceeds for consultant services. The services include conducting a real-time evaluation of the program’s activates in Iraq, including creating a baseline and measuring the impact of program activities in line with the stated objectives of the Grant. The anticipated service period will be from January 31, 2012 to March 31, 2013 and will include three visits to northern Iraq to collect the relative data and will result in the submission of four reports, an inception report and a report after the conclusion of each trip.

In order to be eligible prospective consultants must meet the following requirements:

Consultants may associate to enhance their qualifications.
