Description
1) Objective
The goal is to develop a simple colour-coded score card to assess national performance on research and development in selected countries within West Africa. This will be used for planning and advocacy to strengthen the overall research ecosystem while improving identified weaknesses.
Underlying the scorecard should be a framework and methodology, which should use or build on existing approaches. The research should cover all key constraints to research and development (R&D).
2) Eligibility
The supplier should be a legally registered not-for-profit, think-tank, or multilateral development organisation. Research or academic associations are also welcome. Such organisation should be registered in Nigeria or Ghana or have institutional members in these countries if an association.
3) Location
Actions must take place in Nigeria, Ghana, Cote D’Ivoire, and Senegal.
4) Budget
The total budget for the study should not exceed £300,000 excluding taxes. Costs of workshops should be explicitly built into the budget.
5) Application
The deadline to submit proposals is 5pm UK time on 4 December 2024.
