Request for Proposal: Evaluating the Diversity Impact Programme – generating learning on processes and impact.
The Diversity Impact Programme is already underway and there is a need to identify current learnings from the process and emerging impact of the programme to consider the future evolution and enhancement of the programme. The learning and evaluation report should address the following areas:
- What processes are working and could be improved to enhance the delivery and impact of the programme?
- What learnings can be gained from awardees as they engage with the Diversity Impact Programme?
- What learning can be gained from internal Academy staff to continuously enhance the DiP?
- What is the emerging impact of the programme?
The Royal Academy of Engineering is also considering how the learning and recommendations made in the report can support the development and shape of a larger impact evaluation of the programme.
Invitation to tender: Evaluation of ‘systems capabilities in government’ workshops
The Royal Academy of Engineering is seeking a supplier to carry out an evaluation of the Academy’s systems capabilities in government workshops to evaluate their impacts and understand the value of its methods and processes, in the context of the needs of policymakers.
Through this evaluation the Academy wishes to learn:
- About the needs of policymakers with regards to the understanding and use of systems thinking/approaches in policy/government.
- How successfully the Academy’s workshops offer is increasing the understanding and use of systems thinking/approaches in policy/government.
- In what way the Academy’s workshops offer is supporting policy teams to develop better policies.
- How successfully the lessons from the Academy are being passed on from direct participants to other policymakers.
- How the systems workshops and wider systems offer can be improved.
- What indicators can be used to measure the impact of the Academy’s systems offer and how to improve our monitoring and evaluation activities.
Invitation to Tender (Re-tender): Commissioning the second series of Global Engineering Capability Review (GECR) 2023 research project
Engineering X Engineering Skills where they are Most Needed (ESMN) programme is seeking to commission the production of the second series of Global Engineering Capability Review (GECR) 2023 research project – to further understanding of engineering strengths and weaknesses and skills for safety priorities around the world.
The GECR 2023 report will further strengthen the evidence base and will be a resource for funders and stakeholders around the world to focus their interventions on enhancing engineering capability and capacity for the safe building, operation, and maintenance of critical infrastructure, improve safety and skills for safety.
