The overall objective of this consultancy is to document the lessons learnt, and factors leading to success or challenges in achieving the outcomes from the various Real-Time reviews (RTRs) and Post Emergency Reviews (PERs) conducted during the period of two and half (2.5) years from April 2022 to August 2024. The end product of this consultancy will be a concise document with key suggestions and recommendations from the RTRs, PERs and emergency response reports/ findings with strategic guidance for the IPPF and DFAT, reflecting on the best practices for future response support.

Specific objectives:

• Review the existing SPRINT emergency response related reports including RTR, PER, one month progress and Final Emergency Response reports. Document the key findings, suggestions, action-points, challenges, and best practices from these reports.
• Drawing on the above documentation, provide strategic guidance on the lessons learnt and way forward to support future responses more effectively, both at the MA level and IPPF/ DFAT level.

Under the guidance of the Senior Monitoring & Evaluation Advisor – Humanitarian Programme, the consultant will work closely with the Humanitarian Senior Technical Advisors, Programme Officers, Project Managers across the IPPF Asia-Pacific offices (South-Asia, East South-East Asia & Oceania,
and Pacific sub-office) and may reach out to IPPF staff and/ or specific MA/s for any clarification, key-informant interviews, or understanding any attributes, etc., based on the feasibility and requirement. 

Deliverable

A lessons learnt document reflecting on the findings from the various RTRs (8), PERs (4), one-month progress reports and final emergency response reports (12 responses). It should provide strategic insights, suggestion and recommendations based on thoughtful, rational reflections from the field (local context). The document should serve as a reference guide for the future strategic support to be provided to the MAs and add value to planning, preparedness, capacity building process, and recovery phase, both at MA and IPPF level, for the SPRINT-IV costed extension.

The consultant should review the following reports and/or other technical documents for the period specified:

• RTR reports (8; 2022: Tonga, Solomon Islands; 2023: Pakistan, Indonesia, Vanuatu; 2024: Nepal, Thailand, Indonesia)
• PER reports (4; 2022: Philippines; 2023: Indonesia, Vanuatu; 2024: Vanuatu)
