PROJECT COMPLETION REVIEW
Purpose
The purpose of the review is to assess the success of the project in achieving its stated outputs, and their contribution to the project purpose and goal over the life of the project. It provides a final assessment against the logframe, the extent to which the project has achieved its objects, an analysis of learning and recommendations for the future. The consultant will carry out the review using the standard DFID methodology, and addressing the areas set out in the DFID Project Completion Review template [Annex 1 is available upon request].
 
The Recipient
The recipient of the services is the UK Climate Change Unit (UKCCU). The Project Completion Review will be published  on the DFID external website.
Approach
-       Desk review of relevant documentation
-       Consultations with the main programme partners - BAPPENAS, the ICCTF Secretariat, and UNDP
-       Discussions with relevant UKCCU team members
-       Meeting with beneficiaries of ICCTF project (i.e Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Forestry, Ministry of Agriculture) and small grant project partners
-       Meeting with MWA members
-       The review should be conducted in a collaborative way with UNDP and the ICCTF Secretariat to ensure uptake of the lessons learnt.

Timing
A total of 20 days consultancy to be completed and final report delivered by 30 January 2015.

Background
                ICCTF is projected to be Indonesia’s first national trust fund managing grants on climate change in-line with the new Presidential Decree No 80/2011 on Trust Funds. The UKCCU has provided £6.2m to the ICCTF via UNDP since March 2010.
                The goal of the programme is to support the Government of Indonesia to provide more effective leadership and management of climate change programming to deliver emissions reduction and poverty reduction outcomes. The purpose of the ICCTF is to efficiently and effectively operate as a National Trust Fund Manager to support the efforts of Indonesia in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and developing a low carbon economy, and furthermore to adapt to the adverse effects of climate change.
                The purpose of the project will be achieved by two main areas of work:
-       Identifying and financing priority climate change initiatives in three windows: energy, land based mitigation and adaptation as prioritised by the Government
-       Supporting the establishment and developing the capacity of the ICCTF as a National Trust Fund.
                These projected results are set out in the logframe underpinning the project. The consultant will need to carefully consider whether these results have been achieved and what other impacts the programme has had.
                It will be important to collect evidence to support any conclusions made about results and impact.
Competencies
A consultant with:
-       in-depth knowledge and experience of working on climate change policy in Indonesia
-       proven ability to review and evaluation projects
-       excellent communication and facilitation skills
-       ability to write clearly and succinctly
-       experience of completing a DFID AR or PCR is desirable
