Scope of Work
Gavi Civil Society Strengthening Platform (Gavi CSO)
Catholic Relief Services
Background
The Gavi 2011-2015 Strategy and Business Plan describes four strategic goals in support of Gavi’s mission to increase
access to immunization to underserved populations in poor countries. National networks of civil society organizations (CSO)
contribute to this under goal 2: “Contribute to strengthening the capacity of integrated health systems to deliver immunization”
with a program objective of “promoting active engagement of CSOs”. The project supports the establishment of national civil
society platforms in Gavi-priority countries around the world. These platforms advocate for improved immunization coverage
and stronger health systems within their countries. Direct funding and technical support assists them to access Gavi Health
System Strengthening grants and, through that, to strengthen their government`s planning, implementation and monitoring for
immunization.
Catholic Relief Services (CRS) acts as the grants manager for the project with oversight and technical support provided by the
Gavi Civil Society Organization Constituency Steering Committee’s and Oversight and Advisory Group. Grant recipients in
2015 include CSO platforms in Bangladesh, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chad, the Democratic Republic of the Congo,
Guinea, Haiti, India, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Liberia, Madagascar, Malawi, Mali, Nigeria, Pakistan, Sierra Leone, South Sudan,
Togo, Uganda, and Zambia.
CRS seeks 1-2 consultants to build the capacity of CSO networks to mobilize resources and achieve financial sustainability
through two three-day training workshops, one conducted in English and one conducted in French. Applicants may propose to

it is expected that the training will include the following topics:
