EoI – Evaluation of Community Engagement in Macomia and Mocimboa da Praia, Mozambique 43 views0 applications

MSF Operational Centre Brussels (OCB) has been operating in Cabo Delgado province in northern Mozambique since 2019, with two projects currently active in Macomia and Mocimboa da Praia districts. Both projects work to fill critical gaps in healthcare provision created by the ongoing conflict, with objectives focused on reducing morbidity and mortality among conflict-affected and displaced populations.

The purpose of this evaluation is to document how community engagement (CE) is currently organised in the two projects—the CE structures, roles and practices—and assess what results are being generated for both communities and project objectives.

This evaluation seeks to generate evidence and learning that will directly inform OCB’s operational strategy for community engagement in Cabo Delgado, drawing on the combined experience of the Macomia and Mocimboa da Praia projects.
