         GIZ is supporting the Ministry of Constitutional and Legal Affairs (MoCLA) in Tanzania in their efforts with regard to strengthening human rights, especially women"s and children"s rights, access to justice and legal aid. To this end, there are two programmes which are being set up and implemented in close collaboration:

         The bilateral project "Access to Justice for Women and Children/ Society in Action for Equality (SAFE)" aims at contributing towards the elimination of gender-based violence through improving the prerequisites for access to justice for women and children. To this end, it will work towards (1) identifying legal and institutional causes that may impede access to justice, (2) strengthening the capacities of state actors to provide support services in cases of violence against women and children, and (3) improving the support offerings of non-state actors at the community level. The pilot regions will be in Dodoma and Tanga and pilot communities are currently being identified. The regional project "Promotion of the Rule of Law and Judiciary in Africa" (PRoLA) aims to strengthen the rule of law by focusing on improving access to justice for vulnerable citizens, especially women, and economic actors in Côte d"Ivoire, Ghana, Senegal, and Tanzania. PRoLA will, thus, work towards (1) Strengthening access to justice for vulnerable citizens, especially women; (2) Strengthening access to justice for economic actors; (3) Aligning judicial structures with the independence of the judiciary; (4) Improving accessibility of legal information for legal practitioners.

      4. Description of the procurement:
         

         The programme is structured into 3 main Output areas. The aim of Output 1 is to identify the legal, institutional and social causes that make it difficult for women and children to access justice in cases of violence and abuse, building on available knowledge and resources, and to develop reform recommendations. It should look at both necessary legal reforms as well as the role social norms and practices play and contribute to targeting interventions in the best way. To this end, a key element is supporting a national campaign and support an inclusive discourse and a reflection on the role of violence, contributing to questioning harmful norms and practices to a change in consciousness at all levels of society.

         Output 2 aims to improve the support services offered by state service providers (i.e. the capacities of state investigative authorities) in cases of violence against women and children and to victims/ surviver centred processes. This includes exploring the role paralegals/ lawyers/ other support actors/ victim advocacy can play in supporting the survivor throughout the process.

         The aim of Output 3 is to improve the capacities of non-state actors (Civil Society Organisations and paralegal units) that provide needs-based legal advice to women and children at the local level. The Legal Aid Act from 2017 provides a framework for paralegals. The assumption is that better qualification (in conjunction with a broader range of state support, see Output 2) and a focus on supporting survivors of SGBV will enhance access to justice.

         The Regional Project is structured into four Output areas, but for this tender only Ouput 1 and Output 2 will be relevant.

         The aim of Output 1 is to capacitate organisations who will in turn offer needs-based legal services to vulnerable citizens, particularly women. The assumption here is that better-qualified organisations and their experts in governmental or non-governmental institutions in the sphere of legal support provide better legal services, adapted to the target groups, thereby improving access to justice for the service recipients, in particular for women, but also for men (module objective). This assumption is backed with evidence from Global Insights on Access to Justice report by the World Justice Project.

         The starting points in the implementing countries are the existing legal services offered to citizens, such as general provisions of access to legal information, legal advice in existing conflicts or out-of-court dispute resolution. The module therefore builds on the expectations of those seeking justice who regard justice as being available if it can be attained quickly, at low cost and with easy access. Strengthening access to justice for the target group will be achieved by providing country-specific advice to governmental and non-governmental legal advice offices on the development of specific advisory services. The aim of Output 2 is to improve the capacities of partner organisations to offer legal services relating to out-of-court dispute resolution in the field of civil/commercial law for economic stakeholders. Here, too, the assumption is that if experts who provide legal services primarily to economic stakeholders such as enterprises and entrepreneurs are better qualified, they will provide better legal advisory services and ensure legally compliant out-of-court dispute settlement proceedings in economic disputes, and thus improve access to justice for economic stakeholders (module objective). This assumption is also supported by the World Justice Project report. It is believed that economic stakeholders expect advisory and mediation services that correspond to the legal order of the country.

         To this end, the skills of the advisory staff in the partner organisations advising economic stakeholders should be improved. When providing legal services to economic stakeholders, it is particularly important that the advisory staff are familiar with the relevant, often complex areas of commercial law.

         GIZ is looking to engage a consultant or a consortium of consultants to support the set-up and implementation of activities across all intervention areas of the SAFE Programme as well as the following intervention areas of the PRoLA project: (1) Strengthening access to justice for vulnerable citizens, especially women; (2) Strengthening access to justice for economic actors.
