Deadline: 4 January 2017
The UK’s Department for International Development (DFID) is currently seeking applications for its funding programme- Sindh Education Non-State Actors Programme (SENSA), to fund a full cycle of primary education for 53,614 (59% girls, 41% boys) of the poorest children in Sindh.
The Education Fund for Sindh (EFS), a pilot programme, supported by DFID Pakistan, funded four national and international non-government organisations ((I)NGOs) as alternative providers of education services, known as ‘intermediaries’.
DFID will support most of the children already enrolled under the intermediary strand to complete their primary education through the SENSA programme, and gain quality learning outcomes so they can transition to an appropriate next stage.
The SENSA programme builds on lessons learned from EFS. DFID Pakistan will continue funding three of the international and national non-government organisations (I)NGOs previously delivering education to out-of-school children under the intermediary strand of EFS. DFID has put in place an interim Contract Management Organisation (CMO) to manage and monitor the delivery and performance of these organisations, and manage funds on DFID’s behalf.
The interim CMO will be in place for a period of eight months to get the programme started and carry out inception work.
How to Apply
Interested organisations must apply using DFID supplier portal.
