APPOINTMENT OF A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF:

THE ACTION 24 TOOLKIT ON CITIZENS’ ENGAGEMENT WITH THE SOUTH AFRICAN LEGISLATURES

These Terms of Reference (ToR) spell out the requirements for the development of a ‘Toolkit on Citizens’ Engagement with the South African Legislatures’.

This Toolkit is developed as part of the project “Action 24 – Active Citizens for Responsive Legislatures”, implemented by the organisations Food & Trees for Africa (FTFA), South African Institute for International Affairs (SAIIA) and South Durban Community Environmental Alliance (SDCEA) (hereafter referred to as “the implementing organisations”) in four provinces of South Africa – Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo and the Western Cape.

The Action 24 project is co-financed by the European Commission under the Programme “Enhancing CSO Participation in Legislatures’ oversight and Participation Processes”, Grant Contract No. AFS/2017/391-048; the Finnish Embassy to South Africa; and the Climate Reality Project.

The Toolkit aims at documenting the learnings of the Action 24 project with regards to public participation in legislative and oversight processes, provide reflections on “theory vs practice”, and offer ‘how-to’ / practical step-by-step guidance on how the public can engage with the Legislatures, based on the realities observed.

The implementing organisations are seeking to appoint a qualified service provider to develop a Toolkit, in collaboration with the project stakeholders.
