Конкурс пропозицій з розробки навчального курсу з громадянської освіти
This Request for Proposals (RFP) is a part of the USAID/ENGAGE Activity to Enhance Non-Governmental Actors and Grassroots Engagement. The purpose of USAID/ENGAGE is to increase citizen awareness of and engagement in civic activities at the national, subnational and local level.
Overview
To build Ukrainians’ sense of ownership and basic understanding of their role in a democratic society, ENGAGE focuses on raising awareness of and engagement in civil society activities.By providing tools and opportunities for citizens, civil society organizations (CSOs) and other partners, Pact’s activities include both formal and informal civic education initiatives that both foster new generations of responsible and active youth and encourage behavior change in older generations. Critically, Pact supports civic education initiatives that highlight the negative impacts of participating in corruption.
Citizen awareness of basic rights and responsibilities within a democratic society is a necessary condition for effective citizen participation in democratic processes and state building. As part of its civic education objective, Pact will engage international experts to provide technical expertise in developing civic education curricula for schools based onEuropean and North American best practices. In partnership with the Ministry of Education and Science (MOES) and other stakeholders, including donors, CSOs and teachers’ unions,Pact will develop a civic education curriculum for elementary and secondary schools.
