TRAINER OF COMMUNITY FACILITATORS
CALL FOR EOI: TRAINER OF COMMUNITY FACILITATORS
TERMS OF REFERENCE
Background
Through the European Instrument for Democracy and Human Rights (EIDHR), CANGO, in partnership with punto.sud secured funding from the European Union to implement a three-year project contributing to up-lift of internationally-acclaimed human rights standards and monitor compliance in the Kingdom of Eswatini. The project is called, “Civil Society Platforms for Inclusiveness”. The project aims to support civil society particularly Women and Media towards promoting human rights gender equality and women empowerment in Eswatini. Through the project, coordinated efforts and joint action by concerned CSOs to advocate for the necessary reforms are prioritised.
Human Rights:
Eswatini’s new constitution came into force in 2006 and includes a Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights provides for civil and political rights as well as group rights i.e. women and children’s right to education. Socio-economic and cultural rights are not comprehensively protected under the Bill of Rights in the Constitution of the Kingdom of Eswatini. The status quo renders the indivisibility, inalienability, and interdependence strive in the current constitutional context. The status of international human rights law, provides room for improvement and a platform for accountability at the United Nations and African Union human rights systems.
Scope of work
The training of trainers will target selected civil society organizations who will then cascade the training to community level. The training is expected to cover the basics about human rights. This will include unpacking what Human Rights means, and what human rights they enjoy, in which documents they have been laid down, and how they may be protected and enforced. As a voice of the voiceless, they need to know how their country’s constitution functions as a political system and the extent to which they can appeal to regional and international instruments.
Under this assignment, the trainer is to produce a training manual which will serve as a reference material for the community facilitators.
The content of the training should also include rights of marginalized groups i.e. women and persons with disabilities. The rights to freedom of expression and opinion and freedom of association should also be incorporated and reflected against their role and importance in governance and political participation.
Objectives
- Empower participants with knowledge on human rights; and enable them to cascade this information at community level.
- Information should be packaged in a way that it enables facilitators to initiate community level actions in claiming their rights at different levels where duty bearers are concerned. The style of facilitation and the guide should facilitate civic education for action.
- Produce a training manual that will serve as a reference material for community facilitators
- Conduct a training for thirty members of CANGO who will cascade training
Supporting information & Logistics
- The training will be conducted physically in a format that enables mutual engagement between facilitator and participants
- Participants will be drawn from the wide spectrum of CSO in Eswatini.
- The training will be held over three days.
Essential criteria
Experience and expertise in the design and delivery of bespoke Human Rights training to meet organizational requirements
Experience of conducting Human Rights in the local and regional context
Demonstrable knowledge and understanding of the Eswatini human rights status, milestones and challenges
Experience, understanding of, and ability to work successfully in the local culture, with awareness of the audience capacities and their needs

Title of Consultancy
Covid-19 Resources Accountability Consultant
Location
Eswatini
Duration
14 days
Background and Justification
The novel COVID 19 virus presented the country with extreme challenges. The country was already challenged and therefore the virus exacerbated a situation that was already bad. Most of the challenges were economic. Then came the pandemic which also needed quick injection of money into the country economy. Even before the coming of the virus, the country was already facing problems with accountability and corruption. The current situation will present more chances of non-accountability for the finances that are injected to deal with this pandemic. It is therefore prudent that the funds donated and allocated to deal with the pandemic are traced so that they don’t disappear without being catered for. This so especially because there are huge amounts donated and with the uncoordinated way that the finances are used there are huge chances that some may disappear without being accounted for to the detriment of the beneficiaries who are the Swazis.
The COVID 19 virus and the problems it came with are mostly felt by the struggling part of the population. It is therefore important that all donations and or allocations given in response to the novel corona virus are utilised for the benefit of the vulnerable part of the society. To make sure that this happens, those entrusted with the funds have to account. This would be achieved by independent people or bodies tracing and following the utilization of the resources allocated to deal with this pandemic. Finances should be properly utilised for the maximum benefit of the general populace. Equipment should be distributed equitable and should reach the intended targets. Donations or allocation in kind such as food, should also reach the intended targets and timeously. If there are loopholes and or improvements, such should be brought to the fore to allow for the engagements of those responsible. This would be for allowing improvement where there is a need or for calling for clear accountability where there is a need. This would enable an informed engagement with the leaders and those entrusted with the responsibility of the public funds and donations.
The Council of Swaziland as part of the Civil Society Covid-19 Response Team, under CANGO seeks to engage services of a qualified consultant to analyse the government spending in the response to the Covid-19 pandemic and design a tool that can be used to hold the state accountable for its action throughout the response cycle in particular for increased transparency in financing.
Scope of Work
2) Activities and Deliverables:
The consultant shall analyse all income and expenditure in the government’s response to Covid-19 since the beginning of the pandemic. This will include but not limited to government allocations, donations, procurement by different government departments and none state actors, distribution of assistance to targeted beneficiaries, etc).
Deliverable 1. The consultant shall produce a document with a comprehensive analysis of the current government spending in the Covid-19 response. Such document should be for purposes of lobbying and advocacy.
Deliverable 2. The consultant shall also produce a tool that will be used by Civil Society and other interested individuals or bodies to continue monitoring the use of the public fund and donations even after the consultant have finished the work.

While the political environment have contributed immensely to the culture of civic disengagement; the recent promulgation of legislations such as the amendment of the Suppression of Terrorism Act and the overhaul of the Public Order Act promises a new era of a political environment that needs to be tested.
