Description

The UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) would like to invite interested parties to attend Market Engagement (EME) Event concerning the provision of services to deliver Education for all South Sudan 2024. This is a post Business Case EME event to obtain market feedback on the Business Case and draft Terms of Reference including the potential delivery options for this programme and the value. The EME for EFASS 2023-2026 will be a virtual event taking place at 12 noon EAT on Monday 14 August 2023. This is a post approved Business Case EME event to obtain market feedback on design of the Business Case and draft TORs including the potential delivery options for this programme. If you wish to attend this Early Market Engagement, then please register via https://forms.office.com/e/avk7a3w1jW EFASS will directly support 350,000 girls and children with disabilities nationwide to access education through cash transfers, whilst investment in behaviour change, in-service teacher training, and catch-up classes will improve both access and learning for many more nationwide. Systems strengthening and incentivising greater ownership of, and investment in, the education sector by the Government of the Republic of South Sudan will help strengthen the social contract and build functioning education institutions to enable future development. Geographically targeted pilots, including an innovative health co-investment, will support life skills development, address additional barriers faced by children with disabilities, enable improved resilience (including to climate shocks), and support peacebuilding, including to help prevent drop-out. EFASS aims to build on the exiting success of the multi-donor platform which was established under our Girls' Education South Sudan Programme to continue current coordinated donor investment in our shared sectoral priorities.
