Enumerator - Endline Evaluation, Abia

Purpose / Project Description:

The Enumerator will work closely with the STWASH team to ensure the implementation of data collection for the endline assessment (in health centers, households, schools, markets, and motor parks) and any other data collection exercise required within the assigned period.

After receiving training on how to use the Data collection tool and understanding the assessment questionnaire, the enumerators will collect data via mobile devices in the field with ST WASH officers. This assessment will take place in small towns in these locations: Delta State: Ogwushi-Uku and Ogwushi-Uku Hospital axis. Abia State: Ubakala, Umuahia, and Ariaria. During daily field visits, each Enumerator will work any day required by ST WASH, and payments will be made according to the number of days worked and the number of accurate entries made at the end of the exercise, based on the completed attendance sheet and report.

Consultant Objectives:

The objective of the assignment is to carry out an endline evaluation in the Southern states (Delta and Abia) around the end of November to assess the functionality, performance, and sustainability of the completed, rehabilitated, and constructed WASH infrastructure in Ugwuashi-Uku, Delta State, and Ariaria and Ubakala, Abia State. The endline evaluation will provide evidence on project performance and achievements against established targets, while promoting accountability, learning, and improvement. It will also assess progress made during the entire project implementation period and review the relevance of the Theory of Change. Results from this evaluation will provide insight into project outcomes, trends, sustainability, and lessons learned, and will inform further engagements with small-town governance structures as well as future WASH intervention strategies.
