ASIAN DEVELOPMENT BANK ARMENIA·TUESDAY, JUNE 6, 2017
Asian Development Bank (ADB) in partnership with Integrity Action UK will implement the Strengthening Government and Civil Society Cooperation in Open Government Partnership to Improve Public Services pilot in Armenia. Integrity Action is looking for a partner organisation based in Armenia which has experience in social accountability to enter into a partnership with us and carry out activities under the pilot.
Terms of Reference
Integrity Action is looking for Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) or Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) based in Armenia with which to form a partnership.
In alignment to our commitment to transparency and integrity, documents should be provided with all honesty, outlining strengths and weaknesses of your organisation as appropriate.
Date of issue: May 2017 Closing date for applications: 14 June 2017
1. Background
We empower communities to act with and demand integrity, actively taking part in building institutions that are open, accountable and responsive to their needs and expectations. At Integrity Action, we actively seek to tackle corruption by building integrity in some of the world’s most challenging environments. We do this through a proactive approach to integrity with our Community Integrity Building (CIB) approach. CIB strengthens accountability and guarantees that citizens are better equipped to:
· Deal with corruption challenges
· Advocate for better services
· Ensure fewer public funds are wasted
CIB is a locally driven approach that helps to identify and implement appropriate, viable solutions to improve the integrity of public infrastructure and services.
Integrity Action currently work in partnership with nine local NGOs in six countries, to carry out this CIB approach. CIB does not propose ready-made solutions to integrity challenges at the local level. Instead, the CIB programme supports communities to identify integrity challenges, suggest solutions and advocate for these solutions with local service providers, especially local state institutions.
For its partners, Integrity Action provides opportunities for collaborative learning, project implementation, sharing of experiences and joint advocacy at a level that few organisations in our field can achieve on their own. With our innovative projects, we believe we have made some significant progress towards a just and equitable world where citizens are empowered and integrity is central to vibrant societies.
Integrity Action’s and our partners’ results are recorded on DevelopmentCheck (www.developmentcheck.org), a user-driven solutions-oriented online tool for community feedback on development projects. DevelopmentCheck provides a bottom-up assessment in three key areas: access to information, community engagement and project effectiveness.
2. Project title
Strengthening Government and Civil Society Cooperation in Open Government Partnership to Improve Public Services
3. Context
Integrity Action is pleased to have the opportunity to work with local partner NGOs, schools and community groups in the affected communities, government agencies and the private sector to support practical, measurable steps to enhance transparency, accountability and integrity in the implementation of projects and service delivery.
Asian Development Bank (ADB) in partnership with Integrity Action UK will implement the Strengthening Government and Civil Society Cooperation in Open Government Partnership to Improve Public Services pilot in Armenia. Integrity Action is looking for a partner organisation based in Armenia which has experience in social accountability to enter into a partnership with us and carry out activities under the pilot.
4. Project description
Over a course of 2 years Integrity Action and our chosen partner will work together to train volunteer citizen monitors to monitor the construction of 20 schools across Armenia to ensure that the schools construction efforts meet contractual requirements, satisfy community needs, are delivered effectively and are built to increase their level of seismic safety. In addition to helping to provide a safe educational environment for children, the project aims to improve responsiveness and accountability from service providers, encouraging an open and transparent state that is receptive to citizens’ needs. This project is limited to 2 years implementation. However, Integrity Action values establishing long term partnerships which have the potential for future collaboration.
5. Problem to be addressed
Armenia is located in one of the most seismically active regions in the world. In 1988 a 6.8 magnitude earthquake struck Armenia, killing 45,000 people and making another 500,000 people homeless. Only 24% of the buildings in the 400 square kilometre epicentre remained intact. A future earthquake could put many lives and valuable infrastructure at risk. As part of their Third National Anti-Corruption Strategy, in conjunction with the Asian Development Bank, the Government of Armenia is committed to transparency, accountability and responsiveness and plans to invest in infrastructure improvements in school buildings that would increase their seismic safety, and minimize corruption in the process. School buildings will be rehabilitated in order to better withstand earthquakes.
Integrity Action will work with the Armenian government, Asian Development Bank and service providers to meet the needs of students, educators, and the community. Integrity Action will apply its Community Integrity Building (CIB) approach to monitor the school construction process. Integrity Action’s relationships with educators, NGOs and government officials as well as staff on the ground, have helped us to achieve a successful track record of teaching practical skills-based integrity in over 70% of universities throughout Armenia. Through our approach, we guarantee that students are better equipped to deal with corruption challenges, are able to advocate for better services, and are empowered through understanding their rights to ensure that policies are appropriate, information can be trusted, and that fewer public funds are wasted. Since 2010 Integrity Action has trained almost 10,000 citizen volunteers across 11 countries as monitors. These volunteers have used their training to monitor the implementation of over 1,200 infrastructure and service projects valued over $1 billion, resolving 55% of all problems identified and bringing valuable improvements for education, water and sanitation, health and livelihoods services for citizens.
6. Objectives
By providing relevant training and assistance, Integrity Action would like to partner with local NGOs/CSOs to implement our CIB approach on the ground with aims to bring accountability to project implementers and service providers. We would like to establish durable and sustainable relationships with potential partners.
During the course of the 2 year project Integrity Action in partnership with our local partner (s) aim to achieve the following objectives:
Objective 1: Community monitors observe and monitor school construction to ensure that the construction meets contractual requirements, satisfies community needs, are delivered effectively and are built to increase their level of seismic safety.
Objective 2: Improved responsiveness of public service providers at local level by engaging local communities and key state institutions in joint, collaborative forums and working groups for regular and systematic assessment of pro-poor policies and integrity in service delivery.
7. Methodology
Partners will use their connections, presence and relationship with communities in order to introduce the principles of CIB and to facilitate the process of CBM. The overall objective would be to influence behaviour change within communities so that integrity becomes implicit in its culture and is emulated by all stakeholders. This will reduce instances of corruption and therefore improve development outcomes.
Partners also provide a platform for community monitors to share their findings with key stakeholders in order to address issues they have found and share good practices they have observed by engaging them through Joint Working Groups (JWG’s). If problems with projects or services have been uncovered they propose solutions or “fixes” to these problems. A fix is the resolution of a problem to the satisfaction of the main stakeholders, and the fix-rate is the percentage of identified problems that are resolved.
The CIB approach is a successful and cost-effective way to improve the quality of public programmes, development projects and services thereby improving the lives of thousands of people.
1.1. Context & Stakeholder Analysis
Understanding the context and the stakeholders is the first step in community integrity building. The main purpose of stakeholder analysis is to understand and address local communities’ needs, concerns and capacities. Communities are diverse so it is important to have representatives from a wide range of stakeholder groups including vulnerable or minority groups, such as women, persons with disabilities, ethnic minorities and youth. Partners should therefore be based or have a strong understating of the communities where the approach will be implemented.
1.2. A baseline study
Enabling community members to analyse the context in which they are working and establish reference points against which to measure the progress and impact.
2. Community Based Monitoring
Integrity Action with partners should oversee and facilitate;
2.1 Identifying Community Monitors
i. Establishing a set of criteria necessary for the role and interview or choose monitors who meet the criteria.
ii. The selection of monitors through a transparent method.
iii. Hold a public ceremony and/or sign a code of conduct where monitors agree to voluntarily conduct the monitoring.
2.2 Training Community Monitors and Public Officials
Integrity Action will assist in training and continued learning throughout engagement. Training will develop monitoring skills such as analysing project documents, comparing the actual project to the documents, taking photos of the project, conducting beneficiary surveys, verifying their findings as well interested parties comprising Government, Civil Society, Monitors, Project Implementers and Citizens as advocating for the resolution of problems.
2.3. Establishing or supporting Joint Working Groups (JWGs)
The success of Community Integrity Building (CIB) depends on the effective interaction between the local communities, local authorities and the service providers, including contractors in order to establish a collaborative platform for problem solving.
3. Reporting
Partners will provide narratives describing the project’s progress along stated indicators as well as financial statements detailing how all grant funds were expended. Templates will be provided by Integrity Action. Reports will include:
• Executive summary of projects carried out by monitors
• Progress for each specific project objective
• Project changes/Setbacks
• Project outcomes

10. Glossary
Community Based Monitoring (CBM): CBM is the process by which project or service implementation is assessed by volunteer monitors in order to check whether it has been done in accordance with the plan (contract, budget, quantities, etc).
Community Integrity Building (CIB):A process by which communities, often led by Non-Profit Organisations (NPOs), Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) or Civil Society Organisations (CSOs), which have issues or problems with local government and/or its delivery of services, work to get them fixed, most often in a collaborative process with local government. CIB emphasises the resolution of problems and closing the loop to the satisfaction of stakeholders.
DevelopmentCheck: DevelopmentCheck is an app for real-time citizen feedback on the transparency, participation and the effectiveness of development projects. It enables community monitors to report on their success rate in implementing fixes to identified problems.
Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) Strategy-
Our overall goal is to empower women, girls, and all individuals at risk of exclusion within the communities in which Integrity Action works to act with and demand integrity, actively taking part in building institutions to promote a state that is open, accountable and responsive to their needs and expectations.
The following outcomes are expected as a result of this strategy and its annual Plan of Action:
1. Women, girls and people at risk of exclusion are enabled to have access to information on and claim their rights
2. Women, girls and people at risk of exclusion are engaged in monitoring activities within their communities
3. Women, girls and people at risk of exclusion are empowered to be monitors and confidently voice their communities’ concerns and needs, and influence decisions
4. Power holders at community level have enhanced relationships with and are more responsive to the demands women, girls and people at risk of exclusion
3. To empower those monitors coming from the most marginalised groups within the community to confidently voice their communities’ concerns and influence decisions.
4. To ensure that services and infrastructures monitored have been identified as a priority also by the most marginalised groups.
Fix-Rate: The Fix-Rate is the percentage of the problems identified that have been resolved to the satisfaction of key stakeholders. The Fix-Rate is one of the few reliable outcome measures for governance reform. Most governance reforms can only be measured by their outputs and activities
Fix: The resolution of a problem to the satisfaction of all stakeholders
Integrity: Integrity is the alignment of Accountability, Competence, Ethics, without corruption.
Joint Working Groups (JWGs): Forums where NGO/CSO/institutional staff, students, community members, project implementers, government officials, religious leaders, and others can build trust and work collaboratively to fix problems highlighted through monitoring.
Stakeholder: An individual or group concerned with or involved in a particular project
