Refugee 613 is searching for evaluation consultants

Request for Proposals:

Evaluation Consultant: Newcomer Info Hub project and Connectors Projects

Over the next three years, Refugee 613 is implementing two projects with funding from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC): the Newcomer Info Hub and Connectors. You can apply to design and implement the evaluation for one or both projects. Please note that we expect the work for the two evaluations to be conducted within the same time period.

Newcomer Info Hub:

Many newcomers and the people supporting them struggle to find easy-to-understand multilingual information on life in Canada. Since 2020, Refugee 613 has been creating and adapting helpful materials in multiple languages through our Newcomer Info Hub Project and sharing them on digital networks popular with newcomers.

You’ll work with our team to create a performance measurement framework for the next phase of the Newcomer Info Hub and lead overall monitoring and evaluation activities. You’ll also evaluate how well we’re meeting our goals to improve settlement information delivery and assess the impact of new information-sharing strategies.

Connectors:

Our Connectors project is all about creating stronger relationships between refugees, private sponsors and settlement service providers. We’re working with stakeholders to build on our previous work to improve the way newcomers access services.

You’ll help us by designing an evaluation framework for Connectors and its two pilot sites, analyzing the project’s impact and producing evaluation reports.

*Please note that applying for either of these opportunities (in any capacity) will disqualify you from applying for the third opportunity, Request for Proposals, Evaluation Consultant: Collective Impact Initiative for Refugee Claimants (CIIRC).

Whether you’re supporting the Newcomer Info Hub, Connectors or both, we’ve built plenty of room for your creativity to shine as you design evaluation processes.
