Evaluation of Danish support to Promotion and Protection of Human Rights.

The evaluation will have a dual purpose: First to provide a broad overview of Danish support to advancing human rights through an assessment of engagements at the policy level as well as the operational level and assessing inter-linkages between these levels; and second to document results of Danish engagements within selected areas where Denmark has played a significant role in advancing human rights: 1) Combating torture; 2) Support to human rights institutions; 3) Indigenous people's rights; 4) CSR and 5) Access to justice and rule of law.

The evaluation serves both learning and accountability purposes, and the results of the evaluation are expected to feed into the ongoing revision of the Danish strategy for Development Cooperation as well as provide lessons learned to guide the implementation of Danish support to the promotion of human rights.

It is expected that the evaluation will include two country visits, both to take place in Africa.
