Description du projet ou contexte

While women-led ventures make up between 37% and 46% of businesses across sectors in Ghana, women entrepreneurs in the cultural and creative industries continue to face distinct gender-related challenges. These include limited access to formal financing, exclusion from intellectual property and distribution value chains, and underrepresentation in emerging digital and cross-border trade opportunities. In many cases, regulatory frameworks and creative industry ecosystems are not designed with gender inclusion in mind, further deepening structural inequalities.

Meanwhile, Ghana’s cultural and creative sectors are undergoing significant transformation, driven by policy and market shifts. The government’s recent adoption of the revised National Cultural Policy and the “Play Ghana” agenda are positioning local content at the center of growth, while AfCFTA opens new regional trade opportunities for creative goods and services. Digital innovation, such as music and film streaming platforms, online art marketplaces, and virtual cultural showcases, is expanding global reach for Ghanaian creators. Green practices in fashion, crafts, and heritage preservation are also gaining traction. These trends offer considerable potential for entrepreneurial growth, but without intentional inclusion strategies, they risk further marginalizing women entrepreneurs.

To address these challenges, the Ghana Green & Digital PSD programme — co-funded by the EU, the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and implemented by RVO, UNCDF, and Expertise France — aims to support the emergence of a more inclusive, greener, and digitalised private sector. One of its specific interventions involves identifying and supporting a select number of entrepreneurs from two key sectors: CCI and Health/Pharma in their digitalization as well as in their quest to make their venture greener and more sustainable.

This inception study is therefore a critical first step in delivering this support. It will map and analyse both formal and informal entrepreneurial (MSMEs, start-ups) ecosystem in Ghana, assess gaps and opportunities for sectoral specialisation, and recommend concrete pathways for targeted women entrepreneurs under the project. The findings will directly inform the operationalisation of project activities related to Output 3 of the programme’s logframe: “Build capacity of entrepreneurs to apply digital solutions that would enhance business growth of MSMEs.” And more especially, dive into a more suitable capacity building service offering targeted to women & minority groups entrepreneurs, for their own digital and sustainable transformation.

Profil souhaité

Eligibility:

· Consulting firm or Consultant with a minimum of 5 years' experience in women entrepreneurship (especially in the CCI sectors) analysis, capacity building, and innovation programme design in Sub-Saharan Africa or Ghana

· Firms without prior experience in Ghana are eligible, provided they demonstrate a clear strategy for working in collaboration with Ghanaian actors (e.g. national consultants, partner organisations, or research institutions)

Required Experience:

· Demonstrated expertise in green and digital entrepreneurship

· Proven track record in working with or assessing ESOs (e.g. incubators, accelerators, hubs)

· Sectoral experience in Creative and Cultural Industries is strongly preferred

· Experience conducting donor-funded diagnostics, capacity assessments, or feasibility studies

· Fluency in English required;

Sexual & reproductive rights (SRHR) Health
Who We Are
Action Canada for Sexual Health and Rights is a progressive, pro-choice charitable organization committed to advancing and upholding sexual and reproductive rights in Canada and globally. To achieve our mission, Action Canada engages in health promotion, legal and policy advocacy, campaigns, and movement-building.

We believe in a world where every person controls their sexuality, reproduction, gender expression, and health. In our fight for sexual and reproductive rights for all, Action Canada challenges the systems that create unequal access to information, health care, and rights.

Position Overview
The Director of Health Promotion is a senior leadership position responsible for driving Action Canada’s direct service and health promotion work, with a focus on advancing equitable access to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) information and services across Canada. This role leads a dynamic team, oversees strategy and operations for the Access Program, and builds collaborative partnerships with healthcare providers, health institutions, researchers, and community organizations to support systemic change toward improving access to sexual and reproductive health services.

Working in close collaboration with the Executive Director and fellow Directors, the Director of Health Promotion ensures that the team’s strategies and day-to-day work reflect Action Canada’s commitments to anti-racism, anti-oppression, and reproductive justice. This includes advancing approaches that factor in the economic, social, and environmental conditions that shape individual and community health and inform access to health care. The Director leads efforts to engage other teams within the organization as well as partners across sectors to take this broader view and co-develop interventions to improve people’s sexual and reproductive health outcomes. A key part of the role involves identifying systemic barriers to care, mobilizing resources to address them, and supporting collective action to advance equity-driven, low-barrier access to health services.

As a member of the senior leadership team, the Director contributes to the overall health and sustainability of the organization while championing low-barrier, trauma-informed, and equity-driven health services within the team and across the broader healthcare ecosystem in Canada.

Qualifications

Degree, diploma, or equivalent experience in a related field, such as Health Promotion, Public Policy, Public Health, or Political Sciences.

Minimum five years’ progressive experience in public health or community health and/or health promotion, with a focus on abortion care and/or the sexual and reproductive health being an asset. Experience of direct service context is a strong asset.

Minimum of three years in senior management with direct staff/team supervision.

Demonstrated ability to lead on health promotion and health system advocacy initiatives, data translation and knowledge mobilization, partnership development and stewardship, and on strategic planning to advance organizational goals and systemic change.

Proven leadership in developing and implementing strategy.

Knowledge, understanding, and commitment to reproductive rights and a person’s right to determine their own reproductive choices, anti-racism and anti-oppression, intersectional feminist policy and practice, and the mission and values of Action Canada.

Background/Context

Since 2023, UN Women Georgia has been partnering with the State Audit Office (SAO) to strengthen its role in advancing gender equality. As a part of this effort, a Participatory Gender Audit (PGA) was conducted, helping SAO identify concrete entry points to integrate gender equality both within its institutional structures and across its audit outputs. Building on these findings, UN Women and SAO have since worked together on a series of initiatives, ranging from capacity development for SAO staff on gender equality to embedding gender considerations into wider audit practices. This national-level work is closely connected to global efforts. At the international level, UN Women Headquarters collaborates with the INTOSAI Development Initiative (IDI) to promote gender-responsive auditing worldwide. Together, they have developed auditing frameworks that provide SAIs with practical tools to assess how governments are fulfilling their gender equality commitments and addressing the needs of diverse groups.

Engage in consultations with UN Women, SAO, INTOSAI Development Initiative (IDI) and other relevant stakeholders to ensure coherence with global SAI gender mainstreaming approaches and resources.

Develop a draft methodology/tool for mainstreaming gender in performance audits, drawing on international frameworks and best practices, and integrate feedback from SAO and UN Women.

Facilitate a one-day validation workshop for the draft methodology/tool, in close coordination with SAO and UN Women.

Finalize the methodology/tool for mainstreaming gender in performance audits, incorporating feedback from SAO and UN Women.

Develop a draft training manual on mainstreaming gender in performance audits, ensuring that the module is prepared in accordance with the standards of the State Audit Institute, and submit it for review to SAO, the State Audit Institute, and UN Women.

Finalize the training manual based on feedback received from SAO, State Audit Institute and UN Women.

Deliver a Training of Trainers (ToT) session for designated State Audit Institute trainers to strengthen their capacity to apply the training manual.

Prepare a final consultancy report summarizing all activities undertaken, key observations, achievements, challenges, lessons learned, and recommendations for follow-up actions.

Disability rights Movement building
About the project

The Strengthening Civil Society Representation of Women with Disabilities in Ghana project is a two-year project funded by the European Commission. The project aims to strengthen the capacity of two co-applicants (Women with Disability Development and Advocacy Organisation (WODAO) and the Alliance for Better Advocacy and Knowledge (ABAK) Foundation) in the areas of management, communication, fundraising, coordination, advocacy, gender, climate change, networking, and financial accountability.

The overall objective of the project is to strengthen both co-applicant organisations, their partners and their members to effectively participate in development and decision-making processes.

Responsibilities
The purpose of this end of term evaluation (ETE) is to assess performance of the project and to understand what specific learnings can be taken forward in future project design and implementation. It is also intended that the evaluation will contribute evidence and/or insight towards some of Sightsavers’ thematic learning questions. An external ETE, to be conducted by the end of the project, is also a requirement by the donor.
The evaluation will also be designed to collect endline data for three project indicators, as specified in the project MEL plan. It is intended that the findings, learnings and recommendations from the evaluation will be used to inform the design and delivery of similar projects and programmes.

The evaluation will employ a collaborative and participatory approach to ensure that the evaluation takes into account the complex nature of how capacity is strengthened. It will use a mixed methods approach, triangulating secondary project documentation and data with some qualitative primary data collection. This is likely to include key informant interviews (KIIs) and focus group discussions (FGDs) with various project stakeholders. The appointed consultant will further define the methods and tools and may wish to consider elements of outcome harvesting if deemed appropriate.

Skills and Experience
The evaluation will be contracted to an external independent consultant or consultancy company. It would be beneficial if the consultant or team is at least partly located in Ghana. The evaluation team members should have the following core competencies and experience:

Extensive experience in monitoring and evaluation for international development project/programmes, with strong skills in both qualitative and quantitative approaches.

Thematic expertise in disability inclusion, Climate Action, advocacy, and/or capacity development of women’s organisations is essential. Comprehensive understanding of preferred practices/policy issues at global and national level is desirable.

Prior experience working in Ghana is essential, including data collection experience. A consultant or team with members located in Ghana is preferred.

Must have experience of carrying out evaluations of an appropriate scope and scale.

Ability to travel within Ghana is required.

Proven ability to produce concise, readable and analytical reports.

Excellent communication skills, both written and spoken, in English. Fluency in other relevant local languages is highly desirable.

Proven ability to work independently, manage resources, and deliver work within agreed timeframes.
