Location: Peru
Description
Social Impact is a global development management consulting firm. We provide monitoring, evaluation, strategic planning, and capacity building services to advance development effectiveness. We work across all development sectors including democracy and governance, health and education, the environment, and economic growth. Since 1997 we have worked in over 100 countries for clients such as US government agencies, bilateral donors, multilateral development banks, foundations, and nonprofits.
Proposal Objective:
This baseline assessment is the first stage of an impact evaluation of the U.S. – Peru Child Protection Compact (CPC) Partnership aims to collect data that measures key factors in the government’s response to all forms of child trafficking in Peru, prior to implementation of the CPC Partnership. The evaluations which follow this baseline will seek to measure the effectiveness and impact of all CPC components. Ultimately, this evaluation will allow the Department of State (DoS) Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (TIP Office) to determine the impact of these types of partnerships, and shape future partnerships to be more effective in bringing about improvements in a government’s response to child trafficking. This assessment will consider the three fundamental anti-trafficking strategies: prosecution, protection and prevention, along with coordination of efforts.
