In Pakistan, eye health services are an integral part of the government health system, led by the National Committee for Eye Health (NCEH). The NCEH, which includes government and civil society stakeholders such as Sightsavers, has developed the ambitious IPEC plan 2020-2030. This plan highlights the need for strategies targeting disadvantaged communities, including women, the elderly, and people with disabilities. It also recognises the necessity for a comprehensive national refractive error (RE) strategy and a national training programme for opticians.

Conduct a Mid-Term Review to assess the project’s progress, successes, and challenges.
Conduct primary data collection in the project areas (initial sampling suggests that around 116 individuals should be consulted across the stakeholder groups, although final details can be agreed between Sightsavers and the consultant during inception).
Evaluate the effectiveness of implementation approaches, including equity strategies, social and behaviour change (SBC) activities, and public-private partnership models.
Validate initial findings through a workshop with implementing partners.
Provide recommendations for adjustments to the project and future similar projects.
Contribute evidence towards answering Sightsavers’ thematic learning questions for refractive error.
Coordinate with various stakeholders to ensure timely delivery of activities and high-quality outputs.

Extensive experience in monitoring and evaluation for international development projects/programmes, with strong skills in both qualitative and quantitative approaches.
Thematic expertise in eye health evaluations, preferably with experience in refractive error, inclusive health, and primary eye care.
Comprehensive understanding of preferred practices and policy issues at global and national levels.
Strong understanding of equitable access to inclusive healthcare for women, people with disabilities, and other marginalised groups.
Prior experience working in Pakistan, preferably within the project regions, including data collection experience.
Ability to travel within Pakistan, mainly within the project districts (Multan and Sheikhupura).
