Description

Advisory group of senior advisers in governance, capacity building, human rights, gender, environment, with experience from working in 100 countries

Scanteam is an analysis and advisory group of senior experts with long field experience working for NGOs, UN agencies, development banks, with focus on governance and capacity building. Thematic fields cover human rights; gender equality/ empowerment; space and roles of non-state actors for collective action; public finance management and anti-corruption; rights-based natural resources management and climate action. Scanteam carries out organisational reviews, supports governance and management development, facilitates internal strategic planning, and teaches results-based management.

Competence and Expertise Offered

All Scanteam advisers are senior experts with long practical and inter-disciplinary experience, from a variety of settings/roles, having worked for a range of different organisations and carried out field work and evaluations in a number of countries around the world. This brings a strong comparative perspective to the work, a sensitivity to context, and experience in facilitating local processes and listening and learning from local stakeholders and adjusting to their priorities and preferences

Expertise sought

While national CSOs vary in structure and approach, ACF projects address specific themes. Where these overlap Scanteam’s fields of competence and experience, our value added could be as a strategic partner for interested CSOs by facilitating capacity building and specific support through joint learning and mutual sharing of experiences. This may strengthen potential for local collaboration while lowering costs of partnership to the individual CSO project.
