Thông tin chi tiết như sau:
UN Women Vietnam is seeking for proposals from International Consultants as a team leader to work with a national team to conduct a costing study on the economic impacts of domestic violence in Viet Nam.
Deadline for submissions: 5.00 PM (Hanoi time, GMT+7), 25 August 2011
The general objective of the assignment is to undertake a costing study on the economic impacts of intimate partner violence in Viet Nam. The study will focus on the individual, direct and indirect costs of domestic violence at the household level. The study will primarily employ an accounting methodology or a bottom-up approach; measuring all resources consumed by individuals and then calculating the unit cost for each type of resource consumed. Due to the inconsistency in data and prevalence of different services or resources, different methodologies may be applied for calculating specific costs.
By conducting this study we want to estimate the total expenditure and lost opportunity costs of individuals due to domestic violence. This includes the individuals who have experienced violence and friends and families of that individual. This also includes the costs for the perpetrator of the violence and the missed opportunity costs of other members of the household including children. The study will focus on calculating the cost of various goods and services that are consumed as a direct consequence of the violence. The costs of productivity losses for paid and and unpaid labor will also be estimated as well as opportunity costs.
Specifically, the international consultant will undertake the following tasks:
A. Review and determine final methodology.
B. Develop and execute a detailed research plan
C. Conduct a literature review, review data on prevalence of DV and mapping of cost categories, develop sampling strategy context
D. Develop the draft questionnaires for in depth interviews and detail structure for focus group discussions
E. Agree with the national consultant team on the research site and sampling for the research
F. Take the lead and main responsibility in ensuring quality control throughout data collection and analysis process.
G. Take the lead and main responsibility in writing the research report in consultation with national research team leader
H. Keep in regular communication with the research team to keep updated on the field work and provide technical support
I. Write and submit the preliminary report to UN Women
J. Attend and present the draft report to the UN Sub-working group on Gender Based Violence, chaired by UNFPA and at a consultation workshop organized by UN Women in Ha Noi to get feedback and comments from key partners. Work with the national research team to consolidate comments from the consultation workshop and integrate them into the final draft.
K. Finalize and submit the study to UN Women
