Introduction
Fairtrade Africa has implemented multiple approaches to delivering producer support services and advocacy interventions over the past decade. Drawing on this experience, Fairtrade Africa will place greater emphasis on product and country networks as a primary means of delivering support services and advocacy to maximise impact and efficiency.
The purpose of this consultancy is to develop guidelines that will be used to strengthen our country and product networks:
i. Guidelines for existing and potential partners on how to establish and maintain networks. This will help those managing and participating in networks to be successful in creating and contributing to fulfil their own specific objectives, and importantly ensure a level of accountability necessary to be credible advocates and attract 3rd party support and collaboration. This document will also include an analysis of training and support needs at various stages of network evolution, and how this can be provided (via Fairtrade Africa or 3rd parties).
ii. Internal operating guidelines for Fairtrade Africa to provide a consistent and effective approach to the establishment, maintenance and accountability of networks. This will include an analysis of key individual competencies and associated training for staff who are tasked with supporting networks.
To achieve these outcomes, the consultancy will draw out the experiences and insights associated with past and present product and country networks through extensive consultation with those involved and desk reviews of relevant documentation. This will ensure the richness of information that exists can be made accessible and useful for future day to day operations.
